PICEA. Spruce 
Spruces are unsurpassed for their ornament al qualities. They are 
conical or pyramidal evergreens, of great hardiness and useful¬ 
ness. Splendid for park planting or as lawn specimens, and w hen 
placed among other evergreen planting, form a most pleasing con¬ 
trast. The loftiness and stately spire-like crowns of the Spruces 
lend a peculiar charm to the landscape. The dwarf forms are 
valuable subjects for bordering the taller evergreens, also suitable 
for rock gardens.

PIATJS. The Pines 
Pines are natives of lowlands and mountainous regions and with¬ 
stand well the cold, bleak winds to which they are subjected. The 
tall growing varieties are among the most ornamental trees, 
both for planting as a background in landscape gardening or as 
single specimen. Their appearance makes them remarkably dis¬ 
tinct characters. The dwarf forms are very valuable for land¬ 
scape, rockery and hillside planting.
