(The Deodara Cedar has proved in Europe and in the United States 
a short-lived and unsatisfactory tree. It is not hardy in the eastern 
United States except in the south. In recent years the Colorado Blue 
Spruce has been planted in immense numbers in the eastern states. It 
becomes unsightly at the end of a few years and should be discarded in 
favor of more valuable species. The Japanese Umbrella Pine grows 
very slowly and is not always very hardy, often losing its leaves in 
eevere winters. — Ed.)
