CHINENSIS (The Chinese Juniper), good plants, 2ft, pr. dz. 12 o 



Ditto 3, 4, 5, & 6ft. ,, 18 o 60 o 



One of the very finest hardy plants in cultivation ; it form a compact 

 pyramidal tree about 20 feet in height, of a bright yet dark green, 

 with occasional glaucous prickly shoots in the Spring. The male 

 plant is covered with bright yellow flowers, giving it a peculiar and 

 very striking appearance. It has now been introduced about 50 

 years, and has never been injured by our most severe winters. There 

 are male and female varieties ; the one here alluded to is the for- 

 mer, which is by far the handsomest.
