Evergreens and Conifers 
On this page we offer a few of the choicest Evergreens, selected from the vast collection 
which we grow. All of these have very special merits and great value for the home-garden. 
We carry most of them in a full range of sizes, of which only the smaller are listed here. 
Should you desire larger plants or specially formed specimens, we will be glad to submit 
prices on application, or to show you some of the fine plants which we have if you will 
come to the Nursery. All our Evergreens are dug with a ball of earth about the roots and 
are tightly wrapped in burlap. The smaller sizes are wrapped in a light-grade burlap which 
need not be removed in planting; merely open the top. The heavy burlap around bigger 
plants should be removed, or slashed at the sides when planted. 
CEDRUS atlantica glauca. Blue Atlas Cedar. A 
very rare and extremely lovely tree of strong¬ 
growing, erect, pyramidal habit, with wide¬ 
spread angular branches clothed with silvery blue 
foliage which glitters like polished metal. A 
unique and striking tree.

CRYPTOMERIA japonica dacrydioides. One of the

unusual shade of brownish green.

DWARF SPRUCES. The following six varieties of 
Spruces are very dwarf and are recommended for 
the rock-garden. Full descriptions on page 38. 
Picea excelsa Clanbrasiliana. 
P. excelsa Gregoryana. 
P. excelsa Maxwelli. 
P. excelsa pygmaea. 
P. glauca conica. 
P. mariana Doumeti. 
Koster’s Blue Spruce (P. pungens Kosteriana ). 
Probably this is the most eagerly sought for of all 
ornamental evergreens. The long silvery blue 
needles are closely packed along its dense branches, 
making a very beautiful and striking object in 
decorative plantings. Because it is difficult to 
propagate, inferior forms have been sent out. 
We have the true variety.

T. cuspidata nana (brevifolia). This variety of 
Japanese Yew has all the merits of Capitata, 
except that it is dwarfer and of more open habit, 
and is generally preferred for hedge-planting.

TSUGA canadensis. American Hemlock. This is, 
undoubtedly, the most beautiful native evergreen 
tree, both when young and as natural specimens. 
It grows rapidly and will quickly form graceful 
specimens if allowed to develop, or it may be 
sheared into formal shapes, or even hedges 
requiring a soft velvety surface, if clipped.

T. canadensis pendula (Sargenti pendula). A 
charming weeping form which spreads in a low 
mound when young, rising into a broad dome¬ 
shaped cone with great age. Always unique.

TAXUS cuspidata capitata. Upright Japanese Yew. 
Beyond doubt this is the most valuable evergreen 
tree for North American gardens. It is perfectly 
hardy, and the rich, dark evergreen foliage 
remains in good condition throughout the entire 
year. It grows rapidly when young and can be 
clipped to almost any form, eventually developing 
a soft velvety surface backed with a wall-like 
solidity. The smaller sizes are especially useful 
for making hedges, but the upright, conical habit 
of this variety gives it special value for striking 
ornamental specimens.

T. caroliniana. The Carolina Hemlock is an attrac¬ 
tive tree, not quite as large as the more northern 
species but perfectly hardy and provides an 
interesting variation in its dark green foliage. 
Some consider it even more beautiful than the 
American Hemlock.
