heavy foliage of a rich glistening blue, 
which flashes and sparkles in the sun¬ 
light, and you can form only a faint idea 
of the magnificent beauty of this truly 
marvelous tree.

is its foliage, which is an intense steel- 
blue. It has created a sensation 
throughout the United States and 
Europe, and is indeed a triumph in
