of a fine bright green colour, which it retains well through the 

 winter. 



A nice dwarf variety, from Japan, which is said to come true 

 from seed. 



Cedrus Deodara alba spica, Hort, the White Variegated 



Deodar Cedar. 

 Syn. Cedrus Deodara variegata, Hort. 

 This is a variegated form, with some of the leaves on the side 

 spurs and leading shoots of a whitish colour. 

 It is not a very attractive variety. 



Chajlecyparis spileroidea aurea, Hort, the Golden Varie- 

 gated White Cedar. 



This variety differs from the old variegated one in having a 

 good part of the lesser branchlets of a rich golden colour. 



It is a continental production, and particularly attractive in 

 the spring. 



Cryptomeria Japonica spiralis, Hort, the Spiral-leaved 



Japan Cedar. 



This is a very singular variety, with the leaves closely 

 arranged, more or less spirally all round the branchlets, or 

 with some of them closely incurved and twisted in the lower 

 parts, and abruptly extended horizontally at the points and 

 pungent. 



It is a slender-growing kind, with cord-like branchlets of a 

 bright green colour. 



Cryptomeria Japonica vera, Siebold. 



This is considered to be the original form of the Japan Cedar, 

 found in the north of Japan. It differs from the one originally 

 introduced from the north of China by Mr. Fortune, in its more 

 compact habit of growth, much stiffer and erecter branches, 

 and in its not turning near so brown in the winter. 



It has recently been introduced by Mr. Young, of Milford.
