CHESTNUT HILT, PHILAD’A, PA. 
J. Chinensis (Chines© Juniper). One of the most desirable of the genus ; should be 
kept closely pruned, when its silvery young growth becomes luxuriant and leafy. 
75 cents each. 
J. communis Hibernica (Irish Juniper). Very close and upright in its growth, with 
silvery glaucous appearance. A charming plant for rock work and for columnar effects 
in landscape gardening. 50 cents to $1.00 each. 
J. communis Suecica (Swedish Juniper). Not so columnar as the Irish, but its 
foliage greener. 50 cents to $1.00 each. 
Podocarpus Japonica (Japan Yew). An upright-growing shrub with dark, shining 
green leaves ; luxuriant in its growth ; in form resembling the Irish Yew. $1.00 each. 
PINUS (PINE). Included under this genus are many of our noblest forest and orna¬ 
mental trees, suitable for all soils and situations; they are, however, rather impatient of 
stagnant moisture, and generally succeed best on good, well-drained land. We have been 
careful to mention only those species and varieties which are known to be perfectly hardy in 
this climate. All our trees have been frequently transplanted and are well furnished with roots. 
Pinus Austriaca (Austrian Pine). 
Large, rounded form ; vigorous; dark, 
glossy leaves ; one of the most important 
evergreens for mass planting on the 
lawn ; like all Pines, it is difficult to 
transplant unless recently root-pruned. 
75 cents, $1.50, and $2.00 each. 
P. Cembra (Swiss Stone Pine). Per¬ 
fectly erect and regularly branched from 
the ground to the top; forms a hand¬ 
some, conical tree, with thick, dark-green 
foliage ; hardy, and effective in the land¬ 
scape. 75 cents to $1.50 each. 
P. excelsa (Lofty Bhotan Pine). A 
noble, rapid-growing tree of the largest 
size; it has a general resemblance to the 
White Pine, but with much longer and 
more silvery leaves, which are pendu¬ 
lous and graceful. It is not particular as to soil or location, but requires space for its 
proper development, consequently its 
most beautiful form is best displayed 
when occupying an isolated position. 
50 cents,*$1.00, and $1.50 each. 
P. Mughus (Dwarf Mugho Pine). 
Low-growing, broad-spreading tree; 
it is more of a large Pine bush than a 
tree, and is very ornamental. 
50 cents to $1.50 each. 
P. strobus (White Pine). One of the 
most stately and valuable of ever¬ 
greens ; tall, straight, and handsome, 
with slender glaucous leaves. 
50 cents, $1.00, and $1.50 each. 
Six trees of one variety for the price of five; twelve trees for the price of ten.
