XX CONIFEROUS TREES 



delicate pea-green of the Larch and Deciduous 

 Cypress to the dark sombre hues of the Black 

 Spruce and our native Yew ; and what amongst 

 tree growth can siirpass in foliage colouring a 

 well-grown specimen of Picea pungens glauca or 

 Cedrus atlantica glauca? The spring buds are 

 marvels of beauty, not less so the male catkins, 

 which are of the richest hues of golden yellow, 

 the brightest of crimson, or the deepest of purple.
