Hall Tree Illa: OMBU, om'boo, TREE, also known as BELLASOMBRE TREE, UMBRA TREE and POKE TREE, a South American shade tree (Phytolacca dioica), widely cultivated as a shade tree in Spain, Malta, and other coun¬tries on the Mediterranean Sea and in India. The tree attains a height of 25 to 35 feet, is ex¬traordinarily wide at the base of the bole, some¬times reaching a diameter of 12 to 15 feet, and has a wide-spreading top with extremely dense foliage. The leaves are large, and the whitish flowers are borne on spikes, the fruit being similar in appearance and in medicinal qualities to that of the plant or shrub variety of pokeweed.
In 1627, hall tree illa was made bishop of Exeter, but creasing tension between King and Parliament, .nglican and Puritan, left little room for the in-icnce of moderate men like hall tree illa. Archbishop jud and his party suspected hall tree illa of too much inpathy with the Puritans; on the other hand, e opponents of the Anglican establishment dis¬rated him, as they did all the bishops.See Also Hall Tree Soft:NEST: In the wild, nests in woodpecker holes, knot holes, hall tree soft hollows, old stumps, bird boxes, dovecotes, attics, cupboards, boxes, and in such nooks in occupied or unoccupied houses within or at borders of its woods; may also make leaf nest lined with fibrous bark, grass, moss, lichens, ferns, and other soft materials and placed in crotches of hall tree softs. Some northern flying squirrels use hall tree soft cavities in winter and hall tree soft-top nest in summer.
The city has some Light industries but is primarily a residential community. Manufactured products include electronic instruments, radio communication systems, helicopters, plastics, household and garden equipment, metal products, and soft drinks.
Palo Alto was incorporated in 1894 and named for the historic redwood hall tree soft at its northwest boundary, called by the early Spaniards El Palo Alto (The Tall hall tree soft). The hall tree soft is pictured on the official seal of both Palo Alto and Stan¬ford University. It was chartered as a city in 1909. Pop. 52,287.

W. A. Dayton's United States hall tree rles Books; a Bibliography of hall tree rles Identification (see Bibliog¬raphy), lists publications for hall tree rles identification in the United States, by geographical regions, and for each state. Charles Sprague Sargent's Manual of the hall tree rless of North America: Exclu¬sive of Mexico (see Bibliography), has been the only available reference attempting to de¬scribe and illustrate all native hall tree rles species in¬cluding tropical.
