§ 8163. Use of greenhouses and nursery for trees, shrubs, and plants

The greenhouses and nursery shall be used only for the propagation of trees, shrubs, and plants suitable for planting in the public reservations. Only those trees, shrubs, and plants shall be planted in the public reservations.

(Pub. L. 107–217, Aug. 21, 2002, 116 Stat. 1209.)

The words “On and after June 20, 1878” are omitted as obsolete. The words “Only those trees, shrubs, and plants shall be planted in the public reservations” are substituted for “to which purpose only the said productions of the greenhouses and nursery shall be applied” for clarity.
