American Arborvitae 



In the general department of Evergreens we have referred to the American 

 Arborvitae and its value in ornamental plantings. Here we bring it to your 

 attention as one of the very best evergreens for hedges. It grows rapidly during 

 the first three or four years, but after that develops slowly, and in twenty or 

 thirty years will reach no more than 30 feet in height. It is a handsome little 

 tree and grows without any trimming in a slim, even cone. But it can be 

 pruned to any form and responds readily to training. In summer the hedge 

 is bright green above and yellowish beneath; in winter the foliage changes to 

 bronze. Each 10 100 



3 to 4 feet $2 00 $17 50 $150 00

Few trees are so useful as American Arborvitaes. For hedges, as specimens, or in 

 masses it is equally handsome. A screen of American Arborvitae, like the one shown, is 

 of great value around the poultry yard and garden.
