. The trees of America [microform] : native and foreign, pictorially and botanically delineated and scientifically and popularly described, being considered principally with reference to their geography and history, soil and situation, propagation and culture, accidents and diseases .... Trees; Arbres. Description. HE Cercis canadensis, like the j'ndas-trce of Enrope, Ibrnis a luiiidsoine sliriib, or low tree, _ M .seldom attaining a height of twenty leet, when wild, but sometimes double this height in a state of cnltivation. It is at once distingnished from that tree by its leaves being lieart-sliaped, and pointed, much thinner, more veined, ind of a lighter green; and the flowers are generally produced in less numbers. Tlie leaves are broadly ovate-cordate, acuminate, hairy along the vchis on their under sides, of a light bluish- green above, and of a pale sea-green imderneath. The flowers, which put forth before the leaves, in March, April, and May, are of a ptirplish line, acid to the taste, and are succeeded by small, flat, thin, brownish pods, containing nmnerons seeds. Geography and History.

It Avas introduced into Britain m 1730; but it has never been much cultivated there. The largest tree of this species in Europe, and perhaps on the globe, is at Paris, ill the Rue Grenelle, in the garden of house No. 1^2, which is stated to be forty feet in height, and eighteen inches in diameter. In the Jardin des Plantes, in the same city, there is also a tree Avhich attained the height of thirty-six feet in fifty- five years after planting, with a trunk ten inches in diameter, and an ambitus of twenty feet. In the environs of London, this tree is seldom found more than ten or twelve feet in height. In the Cartram botanic garden, at J
