These trees cannot well be described within the limits of a Catalogue. They 
are the wonderful dwarf trees for which Japan has been celebrated for ages, and which 
have ever been one of the greatest marvels of Japanese horticultural skill. Some of 
these trees of great age— gnarled and knotted like the oldest and most storm beaten 
pines, with every little needle perfect— are less than 18 inches high. They are 
utterly unique. They are grown in pots and will last for years in almost any 
climate ; but they cannot well be transplanted. 
In the original pots : according to age, shape, size and general attractiveness, 
from 3 yen to 50 yen each and more. Estimates and photographs can be furnished 
on application. Photographs 25 sen each. 
This picture shows a little maple tree — deer
