EVERGREEN CONIFEROUS TREES. 
A rapid and important advance has been made in the variety of ever- 
greens; and wo may confidently expect to obtain a great diversity 
of effect in nnr winter landscape, as well as in the pictnrcsqnc luxu- 
riance of summer groupings. In addition to the list now described, we 
-have many novelties in course of propagation, which will lie offered 
when more fully proved. The new varieties must, of neeessily, be small 
specimens. Older kinds are usually transplanted to the lawn when 
about iliree feet high, for which the retail price is 50 cents each, unless 
noted.
