X. NATIVE EVERGREEN TREES AND SHRUBS 
The following native evergreen trees and shrubs cannot be 
grown successfully in the smoky atmosphere of manufactur- 
ing cities, but removed from these conditions they constitute 
a class of planting material which should be much more gen- 
erally employed. Evergreens are particularly effective in 
contrasts with deciduous plants and in winter when other 
plants have shed their leaves. The larger-growing kinds form 
effective shelters and windbreaks, and the shrubby smaller 
forms are useful for foreground and foundation plantations. 
They are very effective as shelter and nesting plantations for 
our native birds.
