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. 



Swiss Stone Pine. Pinus Cembra. (M). A 

 hardy, slow-growing tree of distinct conical habit, 

 having grayish blue needles growing three to four 

 inches in length in groups of fives. Makes a beau- 

 tiful specimen for places where a tree of medium 

 size is wanted.

Bhotan or Himalayan Pine 



Pinus Excelsa. (L). The general appearance of 

 this tree is almost identical with that of the better 

 known White Pine. The needles are five to seven 

 inches long and are of a bluish green color. They 

 droop gracefully from the long swaying branches, 

 making this one of the most attractive large-growing 

 pines. Inasmuch as this variety is unaffected by 

 the Pine diseases now so prevalent on the older forms 

 we recommend its more general use. It develops 

 into a handsome tree of somewhat open growth. 

 On this account its beauty is best displayed on a 

 large lawn. See illustration opposite.
