CHAMAECYPARIS. A genus closely related to 
Cupressus (Cypress). As a class they may be 
called "Flat-branched Cypresses," as the 
branchlets are always arranged so as to lie 
in a plane. Cones are smaller than those of 
Cypress. Habit varies from almost dwarfs to 
very large trees. 
C. lawsoniana. (Lawson Cypress; Port Orford 
Cedar.) Oregon and California. A beautiful 
tree, native of this State; tall and slender 
except at base. Has elegant drooping branches 
and very slender, feathery branchlets. Foliage

press, of dense growth and columnar habit. 
Foliage veiy glaucous, with decidedly bluish 
metallic hue. Develops very symmetrically into 
a beautiful specimen for individual planting. 
C. lawsoniana erecta virids. A remarkably hand- 
some variety, differing in its color and compact 
growth. The branches all stand vertically and 
close together. The foliage is a clear, rich 
green with no glaucous markings. 
C. lawsoniana filifera. Very distinct. It produces 
an abundance of long, slender, thread-like 
branchlets covered with minute, closely over- 
lapping leaves. Only moderately glaucous. 
Growth quite erect; tips of branches somewhat 
drooping. Very graceful and handsome. 
C. lawsoniana glauca. Beautiful compact form 
with silvery foliage.

growth but loose and open. Foliage intensely 
silvery. One of the best of the blue Lawsons.

America. A vigorous, upright-growing tree, 
with spreading upward-curved branches and 
flexible branchlets. Foliage dark green. Some- 
what resembles Lawson Cypress. 
C. obtusa ericoides. Shrub of very dense growth, 
after the style of Cryptomeria japonica 
elegans. Form nearly globular. Leaves needle- 
like, very silvery and assume bronzy winter 
tints. Very desirable for foreground planting. 
C. thyoides ericoides. Similar to preceding, but 
with slightly narrower and longer leaves and 
of more compact growth. Summer color less 
glaucous; winter tints more pronounced. Very 
desirable for foreground planting. 
CRYPTOMERIA japonica. (Japanese Cedar.) In 
Japan this is a magnificent tree of noble pro- 
portions. In California it docs not succeed well 
except in the cooler, moister parts, as it suffers 
from hot summer weather. Growth is rapid; 
branches rather distant, giving it a loose, open 
appearance. Each 10
