Pinus: The Pines 



THE Pines endure a wide range of climatic conditions. They are natives of lowlands and moun- 

 tainous regions, and withstand well the cold, bleak winds to which they are subjected. They are 

 mostly of upright habit, growing rapidly, and not particular as to soil. Pines are very ornamental 

 and useful on lawns and public grounds. They are so diverse in character that species may be selected 

 for even the smallest areas as well as for vast estates. In groups, shelter-belts or as tall screens their value 

 is highly appreciated. 



Austrian Pine. Pinus Austriaca. (L). A tall, 

 massive tree, with spreading branches, heavily 

 plumed with long, stiff, dark green needles. A use- 

 ful species along the Coast, and grows equally well 

 inland. Popular for groupings or as specimens. 



Corsican Pine. Pinus Laricio. (L). Long 

 dark green needles, of rather rapid growth and 

 suited for group planting.

Bhotan or Himalayan Pine 



Pinus Excelsa. (L). The general appear- 

 ance of this tree is almost identical with that 

 of the better known White Pine. Inasmuch 

 as this variety is unaf- 

 fected by the Pine dis- 

 eases now so prevalent 

 on the older forms we 

 recommend its more 

 general use. It devel- 

 ops into a handsome 

 tree of somewhat open 

 growth. On this ac- 

 count its beauty is best 

 displayed on a large 

 lawn.
