Evergreen Trees 
RED CEDAR, continued 
With machinery of our invention we have moved many hundred Cedars from 15 to 38 feet high ; 
some of them the picturesque broad-topped ones occasionally seen on the beach. 
A solid screen mav be made 
. Screen to gymnasium formed of Cedars, moved on the Hicks Evergreen Mover, 
for Mr. Stanley Mortimer, Roslyn. We have moved similar trees up to 30 and 
35 feet high, for screens, shelter-belts and architectural uses in forming a mass 
of foliage for background and for support for the house where the ground slopes 
off suddenly. We have moved century-old Cedars, 38 feet high and 30 feet broad. 
with Cedars 30 to 40 feet high, 
with bare trunks, and in front of 
them Cedars 10 feet high, making 
a nearly vertical wall. To com- 
bine with the Cedars in broader 
groups, we offer prepared trees 
up to the following sizes : Pines 
.35 feet, Spruce 30 feet, Fir 16 feet, 
etc. These, with smaller trees 
and shrubs, as Holly, Rhododen- 
dron and Laurel, 4 to 8 feet, will 
form beautiful plantations, here- 
tofore believed impossible, except 
by waiting 25 years. In the lee 
of such a group, many plants will " 
grow which otherwise would die 
from wind and cold. 
For Italian gardens Cedars 
may be used to form long vistas 
•of dark spires, closely resembling 
the Cypress of Italy. In formal 
gardens of the English style, it 
may be used instead of the Irish 
yew and the bay tree. 
We have moved large Cedars for screens to laundry yard, service court, stable, sidewalk, adja- 
cent residences, windmill and water tank ; and windbreaks to lawn, garden and house, besides the 
uses mentioned above. 
For reforesting sterile hills, sand dunes or bluffs, and mixing with other trees for shelter, we 
•offer small Cedars by the thousand. The Red Cedar has several new varieties. 
Blue. Juniperus Virginiana, var. glauca. The foliage is nearly as blue as that of the Retinospora 
squarrosa and the Colorado Blue Spruce. Occasionally wild ones are found of this color, that should 
be selected for transplanting. 
Golden. /. Virginiana, var. lanreo-variegata. Foliage tipped with bright yellow. Less brilliant than 
the Retinospora plumosa aurea, but the tree is hardier. 
Tripartita. J. Virginiana, var. tripartita. For Japanese effects 
this is unequaled. It is a low dark green bush with thick stubby 
foliage and deep shadows. The branches spread and sprawl 
like the Chiba-Hibo, which the Japanese gardeners train and 
dwarf for generations. 
CE.DAR. Cedrus 
This genus contains the no- 
blest trees of the old world, 
and includes some of the most 
picturesque of the evergreens. 
They are worthy the protection 
while young, and the shelter of 
other trees which they require. 
Cedar of Lebanon. C. Libanu 
Crusaders brought it to Eng- 
land, where the larger estates 
boast their venerable speci- 
mens, exceeding in breadth 
: ; ; ^ " and massiveness all other 
' evergreens, At the Manhasset 
Dutch Church there is a tree 
brought from Palestine, and 
Large, broad-spreading Red Cedar. In the background is a grove of large Eng- th oldest Qne ■ America is 
lish Beech, Spruce and Linden. By the house are a Weeping Maple and an old Box- • t ; f t n _„ Tcbnd 
wood 14 feet liigh. All moved for Mr. Talbot J, Taylor* Cedarhurst, L. I. a majestic tree on Long island.
