Flowering Dogwood Trees To Be Given Away

Published Wednesday, March 4, 1998 in the Nevada County Picayune

Ten free white flowering dogwood trees will be given to each person who joins the National Arbor Day Foundation during March 1998.

The free trees are part of the nonprofit foundation's Trees for American campaign.

"White flowering dogwoods will add year-round beauty to your home and neighborhood," John Rosenow, the foundation's president, said. "Dogwoods have showy spring flowers, scarlet autumn foliage, and red berries which attract songbirds all winter."

The trees will be shipped postpaid at the right time for planting between March 1 and May 31 with enclosed planting instructions. The six- to 12-inch trees are guaranteed to grow or they will be replaced free of charge.

Members also receive a subscription to Arbor Day, the foundation's monthly publication, and The Tree Book with information about tree planting and care.

To become a member of the foundation and receive the free trees, send a $10 contribution to Ten Free Dogwood Trees, National Arbor Day Foundation, 100 Arbor Ave., Nebraska City, NE 68410, by March 31.
