Laburnums dropping wells of fire.
One of the joys of a cycling trip
through England and northern Franco
in May and June is the constant sight
of splendid Towering trees aud shrubs.
The leading varieties of these are little
known in America-mores the pity.
Two OF the most beautiful of the trees
are the laburnum and hawthorn Both
will thrive in many parts of the United
States, and they ought this day to be
making our country landscape glad
with their beauty and fragrance.
The laburnum-hOw shall one de
scribe its beauty? Its flowers appear
before the leaves. What they are like
may be known from the name given
to the tree 10y the common people of
England. They call it golden chain"
The flowers are in shape like sweet
pea and trail in great pendulous bunch
es of the purest yellow known to man.
They cluster so thickly that not a
trace of tree or branch can be seen
among them, and the mass is so vivid
that it can be seen more than a mile
away. The tree grows to a height of
II to 20 feet. Let us have laburnums
in our country.
