LANIER’S • FLORALA, ALA. 
BROAD-LEAVED EVERGREENS, continued 
Pieris (Andromeda) japonica. An evergreen of medium 
height that loves partial shade and a moist, slightly acid 
soil; similar in this respect to the heaths and azaleas. 
Drooping clusters of small white flowers. 18 to 24-in. 
plants, balled, 60 cts. each; $5 for 10; $40 per 100. 
Firethorn ( Pyracantba yunnanensis). Rather dwarf,

thorn,” but not spiny. 18 to 24-in. plants, balled, 60 cts.

Coniferous Evergreens 
This division includes the formal plants, and hardly any 
planting is complete without some of these, such as the 
Juniper, Arborvitse, Cypress, etc. 
There is a wide selection of types, from the crawling, 
prostrate kinds to the very erect, columnar types, various 
heights and dimensions, and we have a wide assortment 
for every need. Some of the conifers will not stand our 
semi-tropical climate or soil, and we have, so far as ex¬ 
perience enabled us, eliminated these. 
Most conifers can be delivered only balled and bur- 
lapped, which, of course, makes them costly to ship, and, 
where possible, we are quoting the smaller to medium 
sizes, which enables us, unless otherwise specified, to ship 
with puddled, well-packed bare roots. 
Deodar Cedar ( Cedrus Deodara). The sacred Cedar from 
the Himalayan Mountains, India. This is the best and 
most desirable lawn specimen tree that we can offer. 
With sweeping, graceful, blue-green foliage and loosely 
pyramidal shape, growing to 30 feet; useful where there 
is plenty of room. Each 10 100

Chinese Fir ( Cunninghamia lanceolata). Another fast¬ 
growing, hardy lawn specimen tree that reaches 30 feet 
or more. Very odd spiny leaves in clusters. Color of 
foliage varies from tender green to russet-red in cold 
weather. A good plant. Each 10 100
