A JMew rorm of the 
Valued Japanese Yew 
Taxus cuspidata Hicksii 
One of the finest upright growing Evergreens ever pre¬ 
sented to American gardeners. In some respects Taxus 
cuspidata Hicksii resembles the Irish Yew. The growth is 
columnar with upright branches. The original tree in 
Hicks Nurseries is over 6 feet tall, and a most lovely 
specimen. We have been propagating this new variety 
(Taxus cuspidata Hicksii) for several years and now 
introduce 4t to the public as one of the finest varieties 
of Yew in existence.

Prof. L. H. Bailey, in his new book “Cultivated Ever¬ 
greens” (Macmillan) refers to this variety saying it 
“has proved perfectly hardy at Arnold Arboretum where 
the Irish Yew is too tender.” It was named by E. H. 
Wilson and described in the Bulletin of the Arnold 
Arboretum. We have only a limited quantity of sale¬ 
able plants and suggest that you make reservation at 
once—shipment to be made in early spring.
