Trees and shrubs of Central Park . ually one larger onewith two smaller ones, wing and wing, below. Be-yond the Forsythia, you meet Siberian pea tree again, then matrimony vine, tamarisk and honey-locust. Here we come to another fork of the Walk, andwe will take its right branch. As we follow it, on ourright, just beyond the honey-locust, we meet a shrubwhose opposite leaves, oblong lanceolate in shape andvery silvery pubescent undersides, at once mark it asa shrub of unusual occurrence in our rambles. Youwill not meet with many of them in the Park. It isa fair specimen of the many-flowered oleaster or Elae-agnus. This is a spreading shrub with reddish brownbranchlets and alternately set simple leaves which areovate-oblong (some are elliptic in shape) and very sil-very on the undersides. The uppersides of the leavesare darkish green, with scales or star-like clusters ofhairs. Often the margins of the leaves are slightlycrisped. The shrub blooms in May or June in axil-lary clusters two or three together, and these change. Floweks of the Norway MaiLe (.U-cr I^Uilaiund^-s)Map 2. No. 7S. 8; in July or August to reddish berries densely coveredwith silvery scales. This Elwagnus midtiflora closelyresembles its sister, Elceagnus umbellata, which alsocarries its blossoms in axillary umbels. But the es-pecial difference between the two is that the formerripens its fruit much earlier than the latter. Thelatters fruit is ripe in October. You will find hand-some specimens of the umbellata indicated and de-scribed in chapter number five of this book. Opposite the Elaagnus multvHora, on the left of theWalk, is hop-tree, and beyond the hop tree, with leop-ard spots, a good Oriental plane tree. The Orientalplane tree differs from our native buttonwood in twoeasily recognizable features—in leaf and in bark. Thebark of the American is of finer scale-like texture, that of the Oriental peels much more cleanly and inlarger shreddings, leaving the bare wood exposed forconsiderable distanc
