ANDORRA NURSERIES, 
P. sylvestris (Scotch Fir). A well-known 
Fir with short leaves of bluish green. 
Luxuriant grower in every soil and situation. 
75 cents each. 
P. Sciadopitys verticillata (Umbrella 
Pine). Very slow growth while young, 
eventually large size; dark-green, shining 
foliage arranged in whorls of umbrella-like 
tufts on horizontal branches. Perhaps the 
most remarkable and beautiful conifer 
brought from Japan. $2.00 each. 
RETINOSPORA (JAPAN CY¬ 
PRESS). These are all handsome, rather 
dwarf, and neat-growing evergreens, the several 
varieties assuming very distinct colors and habit. 
They are very useful for decoration in winter 
and for window boxes or pots. As miniature 
trees they are unequaled. The exquisite shad¬ 
ings of yellow, white, and green, lasting all the 
year round, in a group of this sort are a constant 
source of pleasure ; and these lovely colors are 
particularly conspicuous and agreeable in the 
winter. Shear frequently, as the best color is on 
the young growth. 
Retinospora ericoides (Heath-like J. C.). Regular, conical, compact pyramidal 
bush, desirable for contrast from its violet red color in winter. 50 cents each. 
R. filicoides (Fern-like J. C.). Bright green, pointed foliage, very dense and 
exquisitely fern-like. $1.50 each. 
R. filifera (Thread-branched J. C.). A beautiful tree of very elegant appearance, 
with bright green foliage. It is pyramidal in outline and particularly graceful, on 
account of the ends of its shoots drooping in long filaments, some of which are tessel¬ 
lated. $1.00 each. 
R. lycopodivides (Club Moss J. C.). Foliage resembling Lycopodium. One of the 
finest Retinosporas. Very rare. Extra specimens, $3.00 each. 
R. obtusa (Obtuse-leaved J. C.). A most beautiful evergreen tree, with graceful, 
fern-like foliage. $1.50 each. 
R. obtusa nana (Dwarf Obtuse J. C.). A very attractive and singular variety, 
forming a dwarf, cushion-shaped bush. One of the most interesting evergreens. 
$1.50 to $3.00 each. 
R. pisifera (Pea-fruited J. C.). Smaller than R, obtusa, with fine, feathery foliage; 
branches glaucous underneath. A distinct and beautiful variety. 
75 cents to $1.00 each. 
R. plumosa (Plume-like J. C.). One of the best Japanese introductions, being 
hardy and graceful, with delicate, glaucous foliage. 50 cents to $2.00 each. 
R. plumosa argentea (Silver Plume-like J. C.). A silver-tipped variety. 
75 cents each. 
R. plumosa aurea (G-olden Plume-like J. C.). This is a most beautiful and 
valuable variety; its shoots are golden-tinted throughout the year, and brighter in 
the winter. It is unsurpassed for massing or for hedges. 35 cents to $5.00 each. 
Six trees of one variety for the price of five; twelve trees for the price of ten.
