Specimen Evergreens 
The Linn County Nurseries 
LARCH—European, 50 to 60 ft. _ 
A conifer, but not an evergreen. Makes a strikingly 
beautiful specimen in larger landscapes. The foliage 
is especially beautiful, soft green in spring, and soft 
yellow in the fall. 
PINE — Austrian, Pinus nigra, 40 to 60 ft. _ 
Long, rich green, coarse foliage. Vigorous. Fine in 
background. Endures the smoky atmosphere of the 
cities better than most evergreens. 
— Bull, P. ponderosa, 50 to 80 ft. _ 
Very long leaves and stiff rugged branches. Endures 
the dryest, most exposed situations.. 
— flexilis, Limber Pine, 40 ft. _ 
Bluish-green foliage. Stout, horizontal, flexible 
branches. Slow growing. 
-- Japanese Red Pine, P. densifolia, 30 to 40 ft. _ 
Long, dark green foliage. A very rapid growing, wide- 
spreading, handsome variety, which will endure much 
exposure and add much to a landscape. 
— Mugho, Dwarf Mountain Pine, 3 to 5 ft. 
This makes a compact dome-shaped bush broader than 
high. Sizes apply to width rather than height. En¬ 
dures some shade and much heat and drouth. Thrives 
in any well drained soil. One of the best of all dwarf 
evergreens. 
— Scotch, P. sylvestris, 25 to 30 ft. 
Bright green at all times, and endures city conditions 
exceptionally well. Shears well. 
— Thunbergi, Japanese Black Pine, 80 ft. 
Rich dark green long foliage. 
— White, P. strobus, 60 to 100 ft. 
The softest foliage of the pines. Endures some shade. 
It is the longest lived and largest growing pine. Old 
specimens are especially beautiful. Must be in well 
drained soil. 
SPRUCE—Black Hills, 50 to 70 ft. _ 
A native of the Black Hills. It does very well over 
a wide range and makes the finest specimens of all 
Spruce. This is a very variable species, ranging from 
very compact dwarfs to more open, rapid-growing 
trees, and from clear green to silvery blue-green. Our 
trees are mostly a very compact and slow-growing 
type. In dry seasons it should be closely watched and 
treated for red spider. 
— Colorado Blue, Picea pungens, 25 to 40 ft. 
-Selected Blue Specimens or Shiners 
These are as subject to red spider injury as Black 
Hills Spruce. Imperfect specimens up to 9 ft. for 
grouji planting priced according to value.
