Siberian. A superb hardy variety, somewhat 
similar to American, with heavier and full¬ 
er foliage and more compact habit; bears 
trimming well. This variety is extensively 
used for backgrounds in foundation plant¬ 
ings, where dense bushiness is required, 
rather than height. Each

For slender columns, you can choose from Chinese, Irish, Swedish, and the 
Virginian varieties; Irish being thinnest and bluest, Chinese the darkest and 
thickest except for the bulky columnar red cedars in blue, green, bronze and 
yellow shades. For ground covering and ex¬ 
tensive rockery schemes, Horizontalis, Pfitzer’s, 
Savin and Tamariscifolia are practical, also in 
selective colors. Dwarf Swedish and Spiny 
Greek are the shortest growing of the columnar 
type; Pfitzer’s will best stand up under smoky, 
gaseous city conditions. 
Canadensis. A very hardy, dense, grayish 
green type of especial value in rockeries and 
for ground covering. The main branches are 
usually numerous and procumbent; well fur¬ 
nished with upright branches. Seldom over 
four feet high.

to extremes of temperature and association.

ground covering type 
of closely radiating 
habit, the foliage more 
thread-like and distend¬ 
ed than in Tamarisci¬ 
folia, yet denser and 
more prostrate than 
Waukegan ; the color a 
fresh gray-green. Sizes

Horizontalis gflauca. 
Like the above except 
its color is a distinct 
bright steel blue. Very 
effective. In mass plant¬ 
ings for ground cover¬ 
age, it would be well to 
intermingle both this 
blue and the green.
