or Tree, Juniper. (jig. 2008.) — Leaves spreading and acute, 
1 in. in length; branches erect, with oblong fruit. This kind was 
supposed by Miller to be a species 
because he found it always come 
true from seed. It generally attains 
the height of 10 or 12 feet, and 
sometimes of 16 or 18 feet ; in the 
Forest of Fontainebleau, it has at- j AA 
tained the height of 50 ft., and 
tables, cabinets, and other pieces \4Vf 
of furniture have been made from 
its timber. The branches are more 
erect than those of the common 
juniper ; the leaves are narrower, 
they end in more acute points, and 
are placed farther asunder on the 
branches ; the berries are also 
larger and longer. It is a native 
of France, Sweden, Denmark, and é 
Norway, and is in common culti- 200», J. e. nana.
