DOUGLAS GOLDEN ABORVITAE 
(Thuja Occidentals Douglasi Aurea) 
Among the golden forms, the Douglas Golden Arborvitae 
is well known and widely used. It is a form originated 
by Robert Douglas of the Douglas Nurseries at Wauke¬ 
gan, Illinois. It forms a broad, bushy pyramid, very 
similar in outline to a good type of the American Ar¬ 
borvitae. The foliage is decidedly golden, not so bright 
as Peabody’s, but usually a better appearing tree than 
the latter. The bright golden color is best displayed 
when planting this variety with a' background of darker 
shades of green. It grows in any ordinary good soil 
and does especially well in damn, cool locations.

CANADA HEMLOCK (Tsuga Canadensis) 
As a screen or hedge, the Hemlock is greatly admired as 
it bears the shears well, grows thriftily and is of a 
dark green color and very dense. The results are most 
satisfactory. 
The Hemlock will remain small for many years if sheared, 
so that it can be specially recommended for foundation 
groups and small yards.

PYRAMIDAL ARBORVITAE 
(Thuja Occiidentalis Pyramidalis) 
The most popular form of arborvitae today is the Pyra¬ 
midal. This tree fills a real need in landscaping and 
has a place of importance in practically every evergreen 
landscape planting. Usually it reaches about twenty feet 
in height and the most desirable strains remain very 
narrow in habit, measuring two or three feet or less in 
diameter at the base. The color is much greener in 
Winter than the American Arborvitae and the foliage is 
more

dense.

WARE ARBORVITAE (Siberian) 
(Thuja Occidentalis Wareana) 
This is conical in outline and covered with dark green 
foliage which is somewhat different from the American 
arborvitae, being much heavier and deeply crested. The 
branches are short and stiff. It is much used for founda¬ 
tion planting and frequently for hedges. The name 
Siberian has been given to it because of its rugged con¬ 
stitution. A symmetrical, compact grower, very long- 
lived.

JAPANESE SPURGE 
(Pachysandra Terminalis) 
Attractive Evergreen Vine and 
Ground Cover 
A common problem in securing attractive, 
finished effects, especially in foundation 
plantings, is to provide a ground cover of 
good, green foliage to plant between the 
trees and shrubs and cover the ground. 
In northern climates, the class of such 
material which keeps green in the Winter 
is extremely limited; in fact, the Japanese 
Spurge is practically the only broad¬ 
leaved evergreen which is hardy and which 
serves the purpose in northern climates. 
It is not a clinging vine or one which will 
cover a wall, but is suitable for use as a 
low border where it serves a very satis¬ 
factory purpose, or as an under-planting 
to trees and shrubs. Per 100 Per 1000
