branch tips being golden yellow, but the variegation 

 is inconstant, and varies much in depth of tint 

 with the particular specimen. 



C. Lawsoniana Lycopodioides has growths 

 which resemble some of the Club mosses. 



C. Lawsoniana nana is only suited for rock 

 work or ornamental gardening. It rarely exceeds 

 2 feet in height, and is of rounded and close- 

 growing habit. 



C. Lawsoniana pottensi is one of the neatest 

 and most elegant of the Cypresses. It is of 

 distinct and pleasing outline, forming an at- 

 tenuated pyramid, and is of dense habit with 

 slightly glaucous foliage, which is soft to the touch. 

 A desirable variety. 



C. Lawsoniana Milfordensis is of neat, com- 

 pact habit with distinctly glaucous foliage. It is 

 a desirable form that is well suited for planting 

 where space is confined. From Fisher, Son and 

 Sibray, who supplied the illustration. 



C. Lawsoniana Stewartii would appear to be 

 a greatly improved form of hitea, but of stronger 

 growth and preferable for garden purposes. 



C. Lawsoniana stricta, as the name denotes, 

 is another of the upright growing kinds, but it is 

 less tapering of growth than most, and probably 

 not distinct from C. Lawsoniana erecta viridis, 



C. Lawsoniana Triomphe de Boskoop is a 

 capital variety of shrubby growth and valuable 

 as a pot plant. 



C. Lawsoniana Wisselii is a most desirable 

 small-growing, columnar variety that is valuable 

 for the rock garden or other confined spaces. 



C. LUSiTANicA, Miller, The Cedar of Goa.
