Qdax^axA, 
CONIFEROUS EVERGREENS 
The charm of conifers is in their variety of form, their dependa¬ 
bility in giving beauty of color every month in the year and in their 
feeling of strength and ruggedness. In Winter harsh and bleak 
landscapes are enlivened and given a feeling of warmth by their 
dark beauty and gentle lines and in Summer they impart a sense 
of coolness. For formal or informal hedges, screens or windbreaks 
they are invaluable. 
Care must be used in the choice, location and spacing of ever¬ 
greens, for many, like most of the Hemlocks and the Firs will reach 
an eventual height of thirty to one hundred feet, while the Yews, 
some of the Arborvitaes and many of the Junipers are dwarf or 
spreading in habit. 
More plantings are spoiled through crowding than through 
planting too sparsely—so allow plenty of room for future growth. 
We are glad to give expert advice to customers as to best vari¬ 
eties and proper treatment for each need and use. 
NOTE: Figures after the names are approximate heights reached 
by the trees and shrubs under favorable conditions, first 
under cultivation, and then in their native habitat.
