 ciently hardy for Scotland and the north of England, 

 except in favourable localities near the coast, but 

 succeeds well, and is a handsome species, in the south 

 and west counties. In its native habitats it is a tall 

 tree. 



JUNIPERUS BEDFORDIANA. Gardens, 

 SYN. Juniperus gossainthanea. Loddiges.

 the E-ed Cedar, and not so hardy ; but it does not get 

 injured except in severe winters, or in unfavourable 

 situations. Its branches are more slender, and its 

 general appearance less compact. A very handsome tree .
