Norway 
(P. excelsa). No 
other variety of the 
spruces is quite so 
valuable for hedges, 
screens, or indi- 
vidual specimens. 
The foliage is bright 
green and _ the 
branches grow quite 
closely together, 
thus forming a 
seeming mass of 
solid green color. 
The trees will grow 
to about 4o feet in 
height, are ex- 
tremely hardy, and 
when planted on the 
windward side of 
buildings, prove one 
of the best wind- 
breaks, protecting 
the buildings from 
cold and making 
the home more 
comfortable. As a 
hedge, the trees 
should be clipped 

widest at the base, Specimen Koster’s Blue Spruce (see page 62)

to reach all the branches. Each 10 100 1,000

Other Desirable Evergreens 
No planting of any sort around the home grounds is more attractive 
and desirable than evergreens. Some wonderfully fine effects can be 
made with two or three dozen different sorts, or even two or three 
dozen of one variety. Even in the smallest yard there are possi- 
bilities for grouping, or for foundation plantings. If there is an 
unsightly bank, a pile of rocks, or even a low spot near your home, 
they may be made beautiful with a dwarf or trailing juniper and 
arborvite, or with specimens of cypress and pines. Each 10
