Text Appearing Before Image:
celsior). Tennyson, describing the eyes of thegardeners daughter, uses this striking simile: Black as ashbuds in the front of March. The foliage is so dark green it looksblack at a distance and the side leaflets have no stalks. Like its European cousin, the black ash is unusually late incoming out in the spring. Often it is the middle of May before theblack outer pair of bud scales fall, and the two inner pairs broadenand lengthen and turn green to help for a short season the openingleaves. As a rule the staminate flowers are on different treesfrom those bearing the pistillate, and rarely a few perfect ones. The black ash is not a tree for the lawn. It loves to standwith its roots submerged, and often dies of thirst in the rich loamof a garden. It is a short-lived tree, at best, and very slow ofgrowth; it keeps its foliage but a short time, turning a dull, rustyhue in early autumn. So we shall not wish to plant it anywhereunless perhaps in swampy land. The roots range far and wide 434
Text Appearing After Image:
Winter bud* Pistillate flowers THE WHITE ASH Staniinate flowers(Fraxinus Americana) Winter shows the framework of its fine, rounded dome. The stout twigs bear rusty blunt buds set opposite in pairs, abovecrescentic leaf scars. The flowers are small. Clustered purple stamens appear with the leaves in May on the sterile trees.They turn to yellow when the pollen is ripe. Racemes of greenish pistillate flowers are borne on the fertile trees. Thesebecome the clustered key fruits, which are pale-green in summer, but turn brown, and are gradually shed in winter
