as was done last year. If the

need moisture.
Remove mulch from around
the stems and leave them ex-

At that time have a supply
Of mulch ready and place two

around the plant to cover the

Don't prune at this time of

Gardeners everywhere and
especially those in the barren
new subdivisions want shade
and they ask for the fastest
growing trees. 1t doesn't make
che iota of difference If the
tree is shallow-rooted or be-
set by a myriad of diseases
and insect pests, if only it
will produce shade in the
fewest years possible. Thus
the rate of growth is i'm
pOrtant.
Unfortunately the rate Of
growth is such a variable
thing that it is often-times
s.matter of personal opinion.
A. tree that is planted in a
well-enriched soil, that has
not lost the bulk of it's root
system in transplanting, and
that is judiciously fed and
watered as needed during the
growing season is going TO
grow much more rapidly than
the same kind of tree planted
under the usual circum-
stances.
That is point number one,
the tree that you buy and how
you plant it. But, we should
also remember that we have
a very long growing season
and trees will make a greater
growth in the Washington
area than in one near Chi
cago, I'VE mention near Chi
cago because the Morton Ar
boretum is located near that
city and is one of the few ar
boretums that have attempted
to evaluate the rate of growth
Of many trees. This study
which was published in 1948,
is still widely referred to as
an indication of the rapidIty

nese scholar tree (Sophora
japonica), the yellowwood
(Cladrastis lutea) and others.
Not all of these are easy to
find, and some have more or
less minor faults; we do not
have the perfect shade tree
as yet.
