ADJACENT TO HORTICULTURAL HALL. 21 
Carriere.) From California, where it grows 60 feet high. It is among the 
finest of the Cypresses. In outline it is said to resemble a Cedar of Lebanon, 
Probably rather tender for this region, though it is considered remarkably 
hardy in England. 
Cupressus Macnabiana, M/urray. McCNAn’s Cypress. (Cupressus glan- 
dulosa, Hooker; Funiperus Macnabiana, Lawson.) A somewhat compact 
. glaucous shrub, 6 to 10 feet high, from Northern California. Probably hardy 
here. 
Cupressus Nutkaensis, Hooker. NoorKA SounD Cypress. (Chame- 
cyparis Nutkaensis, Spach; Thuia excelsa, Bongard; Thuiopsis borealis, 
Fischer.) <A large tree from the Northwest coast of North America, The 
timber is soft, white, and balsamiferous. Tree has a strong odor. It is among 
the hardiest of the genus.t Variety variegata, //ort.,; is a form of the 
above having yellowish or whitish branchlets intermixed with the green. 
Cupressus sempervirens, Zinneus. UPRIGHT CYPRESS. (Cupressus fas- 
tigiata, De Candolle ; Cupressus stricta, Miller.) A spire-like tree, resembling 
in outline a Lombardy Poplar. From Greece and Asia Minor. In the Park, 
but probably too tender to succeed. 
Cupressus thyoides, Zimneus. WHITE CEDAR. (Chamecyparis sphe- 
roidea, Spach; Thuja spheroidea, Hort.) Our common White Cedar, which 
ranges from New England to Wisconsin, and from New Jersey south. Tree 
30 to 70 feet high, with a general resemblance to Red Cedar. It has decided 
claims as an ornamental tree or shrub. Its timber is of very considerable 
value. Quite hardy. Variety variegata, Exd/icher, differs in its yellow 
branchlets, intermixed with green. Its color and hardiness make it desirable 
for us. 
Cupressus torulosa, Doz. TWISTED or BHOTAN CyPREss. (Cwupressus 
Cashmeriana, Hort.; Cupressus Nepalensis, Loudon; Cupressus pendula, 
Griffith.) A \arge tree from India. In the Park list, but regarded by Hoopes 
as tender. 
Juniperus. JUNIPER. Trees, large or small, of considerable importance. 
Male and female flowers separated, sometimes on different parts of the same 
tree, at other times on different trees. Fruit a small berry-like body, with 
usually a strong odor, and enclosing I to 3 hard seeds. There are from 30 to 
40 species enumerated. 
Juniperus Bermudiana, Zinneus. BrERMUDA CEDAR, PENCIL CEDAR. 
( Funiperus oppositifolia, Minch; Funiperus Barbadensis, Linneus; Funi- 
perus Cedrus Bermuda, Ray.) Beautiful species. In the Park collection, 
but probably too tender for this latitude. Its wood is well known in the 
common lead-pencils. 
Juniperus Chinensis, Zinnaus. CHINESE JUNIPER. ( Funiperus dimor- 
pha, Roxburgh? ; Funiperus diecia, Makoy.) This hardy foreigner is chiefly 
remarkable for having the male and female flowers on different trees, which 
are very unlike in their appearance, 
1 Since the above was written, doubts have been cast on the hardiness of this species here.
