Pfitzeriana (Pfitzer Juniper). A fine evergreen of spreading 
growth that grows about as broad as it does tall. The foliage 
is grayish green and presents a very attractive appearance. 
A fine evergreen for foundation planting and suitable for 
planting around steps and entrances. 
Prostrata (Prostrate Juniper). A low spreading variety, trail¬ 
ing close to the ground. Foliage bright green, bronzy in 
winter. Fine for rock work or banks. 
Excelsa Stricta (Spiny Greek Juniper). Very desirable for 
formal plantings. A low, bushy variety with grayish green 
foliage. Retains its shape for several years after being 
planted. 
Virginiana (Red Cedar). A well known native tree; varies 
much in habit and color of foliage; very attractive in winter 
when the golden bronze of the young growth contrasts with 
the dark green of the older. 
Virginiana Glauca (Silver Cedar or Blue Juniper). The com¬ 
pact, conical habit of this variety combined with its silvery 
foliage renders it very distinct and desirable. 
Savin (Sabina). A half-erect or partly spreading variety of 
graceful shape attaining a height of 6 to 8 feet when mature. 
The foliage is an unchanging deep green, and this as well 
as its graceful appearance render it particularly adaptable

dense, trailing Juniper of very neat habit, foliage bright 
gray-green, fine for planting on banks, hillsides or rock 
gardens.
