TAXUS— YEWS 



The Yews are widely distributed throughout the New and 

 Old Worlds and are among the most extensively cultivated 

 of evergreen trees and shrubs. Their greatest garden value 

 is their adaptability to soil and position, thriving in sun or 

 shade. In the list we are offering you will find varieties for 

 every place and purpose whether it be a tiny one for the rock- 

 garden cr one that will eventually grow into a tree 60 feet or 

 mere high. We think most highly of them.
