Specimen Evergreens 
- : ---A 
—Globe, 2Vz to 4 ft.. 
A dwarf form which makes compact globes without 
trimming. Very useful for formal places or founda¬ 
tion groups. 
—Geo. Peabody’s Golden, 12 to 15 ft.. 
A clear golden yellow on the tips, needs shearing 
to make it compact. Best golden variety. 
—Pyramidal, 15 to 20 ft. 
Grows in columnar form without shearing. Bright¬ 
er and darker green than the common Arborvitae. 
Much used in entrance, foundation, and formal 
plantings. Best kept trained to one stem, no other 
training is needed. Like other Arborvitaes, some¬ 
times sunburned if too severely exposed to the hot 
sun of late winter, and prefers cool, moist soil. 
—Siberian, 10 to 15 ft. 
One of the hardiest of all the Arborvitae, very com¬ 
pact, broadly conical in form and with dense, dark 
green foliage. With very little shearing can be made 
into perfect globes. Unsheared old plants have a 
billowy outline like Box. 
—Tom Thumb, Thuja ellwangeriana, 4 to 6 ft........... 
Dwarf, dense, soft texture. Purple winter coloring. 
—Umbraculifera, Cushion Arborvitae, 2 to 3 ft. 
A low bush with wide umbrella-like top. Fine dark 
green foliage. Very compact. 
—White Tipped, T. spicata alba. 
Young growth is tipped creamy white. 
CHAMAECYPARIS pisifera filifera (Thread 
Retinospora), 15 to 20 ft. 
Long stringy drooping branches, bright green. 
FIR—Concolor, 70 to 80 ft. 
The Silver Fir of Colorado. The handsomest tall 
evergreen which grows here, and freest from pests. 
The color ranges from silvery blue to clear green. 
Old trees hold their branches to the ground. En¬ 
dures heat and drought splendidly. 
—Douglas, Pseudotsuga douglasi. The Colorado type 
also known as Douglas Spruce, 70 to 80 ft. 
Soft, flexible, beautiful green foliage. Vigorous and 
graceful, retaining its beauty in old age. No other 
kind but Bull Pine stands drought so well. 
HEMLOCK—Canadian, Tsuga canadensis, 30 to 40 ft.... 
Native to Northeastern United States. A slow- 
growing, graceful tree with short, flat needles, 
bright green above, silvery beneath. Endures full 
shade. Prefers cool, acid, rather moist soil and some 
shade. Is liable to winter burning if too exposed to 
sun or cold winds.
