27 Junipers 
Like sentinels against the sky the tall Junipers stand guard around the pool. The semi-prostrate forms cluster about its edge. 
THE JUNIPERS 
The Junipers hold a unique place in our landscape art, fur¬ 
nishing for this country the exquisite outline in medium scale 
which the classic Cypress and the ancient Cedars gave to the 
gardens of the Old World. There is no substitute for the Junipers, 
tall, prostrate and semi-prostrate, in gardens, by roadside, or 
around the home. Could any evergreen grouping be lovelier 
than these Junipers are, around the garden pool? The prostrate 
and semi-prostrate varieties fringe the water and decorate the 
masonry. The tall Yirginiana make pointing columns for the 
background and give an architectural definiteness to the com¬ 
position before it blends into softly massed hardwoods. Little 
Tree Farms Junipers are very beautiful in similar groups.

Irish Juniper 
(Juniperus communis hibernica) 
One of the most popular, erect growing varieties 
which forms a highly decorative slender column or 
pillar. The foliage — neat and feathery — is blue- 
green in color. It has a very close compact habit of 
growth, and somewhat irregular outline. This is a 
great favorite for use alone or in pairs for formal ac¬ 
cent. It contrasts sharply with the dwarf spreading 
types.

Red Cedar 
(Juniperus virginiana) 
This tall narrow Juniper is supreme for home deco¬ 
ration, formal or naturalistic. It is classic in a formal 
setting and free in a naturalistic one. For such lovely 
pictures as the water garden above, for planting 
about the house, and for paths and drives, it has no 
substitute. Its slender spire is clothed in feathery 
foliage which greets the autumn with a starring over 
of light blue berries. And for a culminating charm, 
each Juniper varies subtly from all its fellows in tone, 
texture, and fruiting habit. It is the aristocrat 
absolute of the smaller evergreens.

Without the background of Junipers and Firs this garden 
would be undistinguished and uninspired. A background 
is essential, and evergreens are the best background. 
The Junipers are valuable for all sorts of 
decorative uses about the house and garden. 
Use the Spiny Greek and Meyer for edging 
paths, pools, beds, and especially to edge 
groups of evergreens. Use the Virginiana alone 
or in groups, with no other plants, or make 
the background of it and face with low-grow¬ 
ing plants as shown above. The Irish Juniper 
gives you a cool blue-green for occasional con¬ 
trast and accent, in formal places. The Sabina 
and the Pfitzer make the beautiful middle- 
height effects of the pool picture above. 
(Juniperus sabina) 
A handsome, low-growing evergreen with thickly 
foliaged slender branches spreading upward from the 
center. Savin Juniper is one of the loveliest dwarf 
evergreens to use in foundation planting. It contrasts 
pleasantly with other low evergreens. 
If you have planting problems write us about 
them, or better still, drive out and talk them over 
with our landscape men. 
Evergreens are priced f.o.b. our nursery. Packing for rail shipments extra at cost.
