1050 ARBORETUM ET FRUTICETUM BRITANNICUM. 
1967. P. religiosa. 
to 6 ft. in diameter. Introduced in 1839, by seeds sent to the Horticul- 
tural Society by Hartweg. 
Easily recognised from every other species of silver fir by the shortness of 
its cones, which, in form and structure, bear a marked resemblance to those 
of the cedar of Lebanon, although they are considerably smaller. From the 
elevated situation on which the tree grows, there can be little doubt of its 
proving perfectly hardy in Britain.

hirtélla Humb. ef Kunth 1. c.. has the young branches covered with hairs.
