CALIFORNIA NURSERY COMPANY 
TRAINED BOXWOODS 
For formal decorative work and for tub culture, the Box- 
woods are more extensively grown than any other class of 
plants. It is quite an art to train thsse plants. We have a 
fine assortment trained by our experts. 
The following remarks briefly exi)lain the meaning of the 
terms applied to th^ various shapes: 
BUSH£S are not intensively trained except to keep them in 
shape. 
STANDARDS have a stem with a top fashioned into the 
form of a globe. 
PYRAMIDS are trained from the ground up and are broad 
at thfi basR and pointed at the top. 
CYLINDERS an shaped in cylindrical form. 
SQUAPE COLUMNS are elongated cubes- 
OLOBES are trained in globular form.
