Warrington Tree Planter

There Is a phase of Washington's
career which Is not always mentioned
in articles concerning BIN, but which
Is very interesting one. He was an
enthusiastic tree planter and collector,
and he sent to far-off places for par
ticulnr varieties Of trees that he
wished to plant at Mount Vernon.
During the years from 1883 to 1855,
following the end of the Revolution
airy war and preceding his election to
the Presidency, Washington spent
practically all his time improving the
large estate at Mount Vernon, laying
out his grounds and making his plant
ings. Still growing at Mount Vernon
are 40 trees which were planted by
Washington during his lifetime.
