Pfitzer's Juniper 
Thuja - Arbor-Vitae 
Thuja occidentalis. American Ar¬ 
bor-Vitae. One of the most pop¬ 
ular Evergreens because it grows 
well under adverse conditions, 
and as a specimen or hedge plant 
it is very attractive. It is inclined 
to be conical in growth, and while 
it is not as green during the win¬ 
ter as some of the other varie¬ 
ties, it is one of the most popular 
because of its many good quali¬ 
ties. Each

T. occidentalis filicoides. Fern-leaf 
Arbor-Vitae. A decided pyram¬ 
idal tree not unlike the regular 
Pyramidal Arbor-Vitae, except 
the foliage is deeper green with 
a "crinkled" appearance. Slow- 
growing; attractive. 
Each 
Pinus - Pine 
Pinus montana mughus. Mugho Pine. An ex¬ 
cellent dwarf Pine, globe-shaped, and erect 
branching. It is especially attractive in 
spring, when the new growth, which seems 
like miniature candles, completely covers 
the bush. Each

P. strobus. White Pine. A familiar, tall ma¬ 
jestic native Evergreen. Grows rapidly as 
Evergreens go, and with its long, flexible, 
light green, pendulous needles proves one of 
our best trees. Can be used as a windbreak 
or specimen. 
P. sylvestris. Scotch Pine. One of the best 
Pines offered. Very quick to establish itself, 
grows rapidly, and has ability to grow lux¬ 
uriantly on high and dry ground. Its needles 
are shorter than either White or Austrian 
Pine, its habit more compact, the foliage 
dark green. Where quick effect is wanted, 
this variety is one of the best.

Pseudotsuga - Fir 
Pseudotsuga douglasi. Douglas Fir. A Colorado 
tree. Soft green foliage, resembling the 
hemlock or spruce, but of a blue cast. Makes 
a compact tree and can be used as a speci¬ 
men or in group plantings. Each 
5 to 6 ft.$5.00 
4 to 5 ft. 4.00 
Taxus - Yew 
The Disease-Proof Evergreen 
The Yews thrive in shade, do well in sun, 
grow in sooty and congested areas where no 
other Evergreen will stand, and, best of all, 
are virtually insect-proof, their foliage being 
apparently poisonous to all attacks. They are 
slow to make up, but well worth the time and 
extra cost. We offer the best kinds for Ken¬ 
tucky. The deepest color of any Evergreen. 
Taxus cuspidata. Spreading Japanese Yew. 
Low, rather spreading type which is usually 
broader than high. Can be pruned into a 
compact form to look like a Boxwood or 
made into a hedge if desired. Withstands 
heat and cold and perfectly hardy in our 
climate. Can be grown in sun or shade. One 
of the finest spreading Evergreens.

T. cuspidata capitata. Upright Japanese Yew. 
An upright cone shape form of medium 
growth. Desirable for foundation planting or 
hedge. The most desirable variety of this 
type. 
T. media hicksi. Hicks' Yew. Decidedly up¬ 
right, forming a column of deepest green 
foliage. Slow-growing and never spreading 
more than one-fourth of its height. Very 
compact.

T. occidentalis globosa. Globe Arbor-Vitae. 
Usually develops into a perfect, globe-shaped 
plant, the spread equaling the height. The 
foliage is light green and attractive. These 
are largely used for front-line planting, as 
specimens in urns or vases, and in formal 
work where symmetry is desired. Each

T. occidentalis lutea. George Peabody Arbor- 
Vitae. Similar to the American Arbor-Vitae, 
except that the foliage is golden when ex¬ 
posed to the direct rays of the sun. It is 
by far the best of the American Golden 
types. Each

21/2 to 3 ft. 3.00 
2 to 21/2 ft. 2.50 
Globe Arbor-Vitae 
T. occidentalis pyramidalis. Pyramidal Arbor- 
Vitae. Strikingly attractive, spreading very 
little at its base and retaining its shape 
without shearing. The color is deep rich 
green. Like all Arbor-Vitaes is easy to trans¬ 
plant. For corners, in front of pillars, center 
or background of group plantings, no dwarf 
Evergreen is quite so popular. Each 
6 to 7 ft.$5.00 
5 to 6 ft. 4.00 
4 to 5 ft. 3.00 
3 to 4 ft. 2.50

31/2 to 4 ft.$4.00 
3 to 31/2 ft. 3.50 
21/2 to 3 ft. 3.00 
T. occidentalis vervaeneana. Vervaene's Ar¬

idal in habit; winter color good. Each 
3 to 4 ft.$3.00 
2 to 3 ft. 2.50 
Thuja occidentalis wareano. Ware Arbor-Vitae. 
A small globe variety and its unusually dark 
green color makes it very useful. The dark¬ 
est green of all the American Arbor-Vitaes. 
It can be sheared to a perfect globe, though 
naturally it is oblong. Each 
21/2 ft.$3.00 
2 to 21/2 ft. 2.50 
1 V 2 to 2 ft. 2.00 
1 to 11/2 ft. 1.50

Vitae. One of the most conspicuous of the 
golden pyramidal Arbor-Vitaes. Holds color 
throughout the winter. 
T. orientalis elegantissima. Yellow Column 
Arbor-Vitae. Of rather pyramidal form 
though broader at base than Aurea con¬ 
spicua. Golden color in summer, turning a 
pleasing bronze at the approach of cold 
weather.

18 to 24 in. 2.50 
15 to 18 in. 2.00 
Tsuga - Hemlock 
Tsuga canadensis. Canada Hemlock. We con¬ 
sider the Hemlock the very best of all the 
Evergreens. It grows rapidly in the open 
lawn, in confined places it adapts itself to 
all conditions, and if kept sheared can be 
well used as a foundation plant. If left to 
develop naturally it has sweeping, pendulous 
branches that are most graceful, and when 
sheared it has a soft, billowy appearance 
that cannot be duplicated with other Ever¬ 
greens. The foliage is always a very deep 
green, and under adverse circumstances it 
is more largely planted than any other Ever¬ 
green. We have a saying here, "When in 
doubt plant a Hemlock." Each 
10 to 12 ft.$15.00 
9 to 10 ft. 12.00 
8 to 9 ft. 10.00 
7 to 8 ft. 8.00

4 to 5 ft. 4.00 
3 to 4 ft. 3.00 
2 to 3 ft. 2.00 
T. caroliniana. Carolina Hemlock. A more 
pendulous variety than the Canada Hem¬ 
lock, and of only moderate growth. Foliage 
a deep green, borne in miniature whorls 
about the branches. It has proved hardy 
and quite attractive, and is found in few 
plantings, thus adding novelty as well as 
true worth. Each 
6 to 7 ft.$6.00 
5 to 6 ft. 5.00 
4 to 5 ft. 4.00
