CHAMAECYPARIS obtusa nana. 
Very dwarf Japanese Evergreen; picturesque effect. Dark-green shiny foliage, densely 
tufted. 
JUNIPERUS chinensis pfitzeriana. 
One of our choicest and hardiest dwarf "spreading" evergreens of the "feathery spray" type. 
communis depressa. New England Savin. 
The best Juniper for ground cover. Forms vary from completely "prostrate" to the "ascend- 
ing" bushy types. It is at home on sandy or gravelly hillsides in full sun exposure, or in quite 
dense shade. Single plants will often reach a diameter of 15 feet or more. It is the hardy type 
that gives such charm to New England hillsides. Often a beautiful bronze in autumn and winter, 
and studded with bright blue fruit. Invaluable for landscape plantings. 
sabina. Savin. 
Semi-erect dwarf, very bushy; line among rocks and boulders and for borders. 
sabina tamariscifolia. Grey Carpet Juniper. 
Trailing species with feathery grey "sprays ' of foliage. A beautiful rockery plant and for 
edgings. 
virginiana. Red Cedar. 
Pyramidal habit; dark-green to bluish foliage, with many variable forms. This is one of the 
most useful and characteristic trees of our native landscapes. It rivals the Italian Cypress in 
beauty, is absolutely hardy, and stands sea exposure well. Fruit dark-blue and conspicuous, hang- 
ing until mid-winter. For many effects it is the most useful evergreen for northern latitudes. 
This is a specialty at Boxford Nursery, and we can supply trees up to 30 feet. We have made 
many notable plantings of large Cedars with uniform success. 
virginiana glauca. Blue-Red Cedar. 
Striking type with blue-green foliage. 
PICEA alcockiana. Alcock Spruce. 
A striking spruce, with blue-green foliage effects. 
canadensis (alba). White Spruce.

unexcelled, and for northern latitudes is highly recommended for single lawn specimen, massing 
or for forest. 
engelmanni. Engelmann Spruce. 
Rocky Mountain evergreen with narrow-pyramidal form of great beauty. 
engelmanni glauca. Blue Engelmann Spruce. 
Form with silvery-blue foliage. 
excelsa. Norway Spruce. 
This well-known spruce varies greatly in type, some with very picturesque pendulous 
branches, and others again of upright growth. A most beautiful conifer, especially where not 
crowded. 
omorika. 
Rare and very beautiful. Needles are unusual and conspicuous with white marking. One 
of the most charming conifers as grown in Arnold Arboretum.

anese gardens.
