EVERGREENS 



CEDRUS. Cedar. 



— Atlantica glauca. Blue Cedar. 25 feet. 



Vigorous, pyramidal and open growth. Fo- 

 liage of a light glaucous tint, rivaling the 

 Blue Spruce in color effect. 



— Deodara. Deodar Cedar. 30 feet. Of upright 



pyramidal form and graceful silvery foliage, 

 which is more abundant than either of the 

 other sorts. When young it excels both in 

 beauty. 



— Libani. Cedar of Lebanon. 40 feet. Vigorous, 



wide-spreading, horizontal branches; foliage 

 dark green; very picturesque. Exceedingly 

 rare and choice. 



CRYPTOMERIA. 



— Japoniea Lobbi. 50 feet. A graceful and 



handsome tree with the characteristics of the 

 genus, but more hardy. Endures the Winter 

 without injury in this latitude. 



HEMLOCK. See Tsuga. 



ILEX. Holly. 



— crenata. Japanese Holly. 8 feet. A much 



lauded and very attractive Holly from Japan, 

 bearing small, shining, Myrtle-like leaves 

 in great abundance. Not entirely hardy here. 



— opaca. American Holly. 25 feet. A beautiful 



Evergreen, bearing red berries in abundance, 

 contrasting finely with the bright green leaves. 



— Pernyi. One of the latest introductions of Mr. 



Wilson, who describes it as follows: " In 

 Ilex Pernyi we have a remarkable and charming 

 species of Holly, very dense and symmetrical, 

 dark green leaves, very prickly. The fruit is 

 scarlet and crowded amongst the foliage. It 

 is a native of Central and Western China, 

 where it grows at a high altitude in woodlands 

 and thickets." 



JUNIPERUS. Juniper. 



— Canadensis. 5 feet. A dwarf Juniper of bushy up- 



right growth. Foliage is brownish green, re- 

 sembling in general appearance Juniperus 

 communis, but the latter is of more spreading 

 habit of growth. Valuable for rock-planting. 



— communis. Trailing Juniper. 3 feet. Our 



native prostrate or trailing Juniper, widely 

 scattered over the temperate regions of Amer- 

 ica. Is of spreading irregular form, growing m 

 rocky and nearly sterile soil in the most ex- 

 posed situations. Valuable for covering slopes. 



aurea. Douglas' Golden Juniper. 3 feet. 



Similar in habit and form to the preceding, 

 but the foliage is beautifully tipped with golden 

 color. Distinct and attractive. 



Cracoviea. 6 feet. Of slow growth, pyramidal, 



very hardy. Foliage bluish green, and resembles 

 much the following variety, which however 

 grows more rapidly. 



Hibernica. 8 feet. The Irish Juniper is of 



very dense and upright habit. Fine for col- 

 umnar effects in landscape work. 



prostrata. 3 feet. A very much more 



spreading plant than the type and very valu- 

 able for rockwork. 



JUNIPERUS— Continued 



Suecica. Swedish Juniper. 6 feet. More 



hardy than the Irish Juniper, but not so rapid 

 in growth. Foliage of a yellowish-green tint. 



— excelsa stricta. 5 feet. One of the most useful 



and hardy Junipers. Its habit of growth is 

 pyramidal, dense and the foliage is of a pleas- 

 ing bluish-green color. Being a slow grower it 

 can be used for small hedges and formal 

 plantings. 



— Japoniea. Japan Juniper. 5 feet. A very 



hardy and reliable sort, of upright rather 

 irregular form. 



aurea. Golden Japan Juniper. 3 feet. Most 



distinct golden color which is constant and un- 

 changing throughout the year. Quite dwarf 

 and spreading. 



— reeurva squamata. 2 feet. Prostrate trailing 



species with glaucous green foliage. Good 

 for rockwork. 



— Sabina. Savin Juniper. 5 feet. A low, wide 



spreading, thickly branched evergreen shrub 

 Desirable for borders. 



tamariscifolia. 2 feet. A most picturesque 



half procumbent variety of ironclad hardi- 

 ness and most distinct character. 



variegata. 2 feet. A somewhat variegated 



foliage distinguishes this from the type. 



Waukegan. 1 foot. This may not belong to 



the Sabina family, but it is without doubt the 

 very best of the trailing Junipers, of a hand- 

 some bluish grey-green color, and hardy. The 

 plant for rockeries. 



Juniperus Sabina
