Golden  Retinospora 
var.  aurea.  (S)  The  most  popular  and  generally 
useful  of  all  the  golden  evergreens.  In  character  it 
resembles  the  R.  Flumosa.  Is  especially  ornamental, 
and  the  soft,  plume-like,  golden  foliage  is  particu- 
larly bright  in  Spring.  It  remains  a  deep  yellow, 
even  through  the  Winter.  When  pruned,  it  becomes 
symmetrical  and  regular.  It  is  low-branched,  and 
the  golden  yellow  foliage  brushes  the  green  grass  in 
beautiful  contrasts.  A  vigorous  grower,  that  is  un- 
surpassed for  color  effect  in  grouping.  It  is  well 
adapted  for  small  lawns,  and  equally  appropriate  for 
large  areas.    For  window-boxes,  vases  or  for  formal 
gardenmg,
