Trees and shrubs of Central Park . oshrubs quite close together. One of these, the easterly, you have met many times before, on these rambles;the westerly one you meet here for the first time. Theeasterly is fly-honeysuckle, known by the cusp at thetips of its leaves, and ragged, tattered branches. Thewesterly shrub is Stuartia. It gets its name from JohnStuart, Earl of Bute, and is worthy of some attention, as you will not find many of these in the Park. Itbelongs to the Camellia or Tea family (Ternstrcemia-cece). Its leaves are oval, thick, pointed at the tip andbase, and set alternately on the branches. In Julyits cream-white flowers, very much like the Camellia, break out on solitary short pedicils (stems), nearlysessile (stemless), from the axils of the leaves. Theseflowers are fairly large, two, three to four inches wide, and each has, generally, five petals very prettily crimpedabout the edges. These flowers are succeeded by five-angled pods which are ripe in autumn. As the Walk comes out upon the Esplanade, at your. 2 Z 173 right, is a splendid mass of the handsome Rhodotyposwith its glossy, deep purple berries in September, andon your left, is Thunbergs barberry, with its richbrilliant crimson berries, gemming its dainty stems atthe same time of year. Take now the walk that breaksoff to the east from the Esplanade, to the Boat House.Just beyond the Rhodotypos you will find beach plum.This, in April or May covers its bare branches withwhite clusters of flowers in side umbels. After itflowers, the leaves appear, downy, pale green on thetindersides, but shining on the uppersides. They areset alternately, are ovate, about three inches long, andsharply serrate. The fruit is a round purple berrypowdered over with a bloom, and is ripe in September.As you proceed toward the Boat House you pass, onyour right, near the Walk, cucumber tree of the mag-nolia family, with thin leaves from five to ten incheslong which are generally pointed at both ends.
