EVERGREEN TREES 
A Border Planting 
THE YEW 
Possibly no other tree lias had more prominence in history and 
story than the English Yew, and in English gardens it has held a 
prominent place for centuries. 
With the advent of the Japanese Yew in its several forms, the 
American garden can now have its Yews, perfectly hardy, massive 
in outline, rich in deep color and in forms adaptable either for 
specimens, or for hedges.
