HICKS' YEW iTaxus cuspi- 

 dota Hicksi). Another form 

 of Yew that is very similor 

 to the Irish Yew, but is o 

 much faster grower. The 

 bronches ascend almost 

 verticolly, generally grow- 

 ing with many stems. Its 

 rich dork glossy green 

 mokes it much more ot- 

 troctive than Arbor-Vitoes 

 or Junipers, We can un- 

 hesitatingly recommend it 

 for planting in oil sections. 

 It has proven to be per- 

 fectly hardy. If extremely 

 norrow effect is desired it 

 con be obtoined by trimming the sides of the 

 plant when it is smoll. This variety is extensively 

 used for making high doss evergreen hedges.
