Thuya  •  Arborvitae 
These  highly  ornamental  trees,  though  many  are  of  upright  habit, 
io  not  grow  to  great  heights,  and  are  appropriate  for  small  lawns 
IS  well  as  larger  areas.  They  are  generally  hardy ;  grow  vigorously 
n  varied  soils  and  are  easily  transplanted.  Their  clean,  neat,  com- 
)act  appearance  and  the  soft,  fern-like  foliage,  in  many  cases  so 
)rightly  colored,  make  them  useful  in  grouping,  bedding,  bordering 
ind  formal  gardening,  for  cemetery  and  lawn  specimens,  for  hedges, 
screens,  window-boxes,  vases  and  house  decorations. 
Thuya  gigantea  ;  syn.,  Lobbi.  Oregon  Cedar.  (S)  On  our  western 
coast  it  is  a  mighty  forest  tree.  In  the  East  it  succeeds  best  in 
sheltered  locations.  It  is  rare  in  ornamental  plantings,  but  well 
suited  for  them,  as  it  lends  variety  and  interest.

r.  occidentalis.  American  ArborvitvE,  or  White  Cedar.    (S)  A 
splendid  native  that  grows  well  anywhere  and  thrives  over  a  wide 
range  of  climate.  The  habit  is  erect  and  pyramidal,  the  foliage 
soft  and  light  green  in  color.  The  branches  are  dense  and  sym- 
metrical from  the  ground  up.  This  Arborvitae  should  be  included  in 
groups  and  all  evergreen  plantings.  For  tubs  and  vases  and  for 
formal  plantings  there  is  nothing  better.  They  are  unapproached 
as  tall  hedges  to  form  screens  from  objectionable  objects,  or  for 
shelter-belts,  or  as  a  blind  about  clothes-yards,  etc.  They  grow 
quickly,  and  if  planted  closely  in  hedges  give  the  desired  effects 
promptly.  They  may  be  kept  at  any  height  and  made  more  dense 
and  bushy  by  trimming,  which  they  endure  readily.
