Sargent Juniper 
T his is a sea-shore Juniper 
discovered l)y Sargent in 
northern Japan, about 
1892. It forms a prostrate mat, 
8 to 10 feet across when fully 
developed, but, like all dwarf 
Evergreens, may be kept smaller 
by trimming. It grows only a 
few inches in height. 
In order to produce an effect 
as shown in the picture, a num¬ 
ber of trees must be grown to¬ 
gether. In fact, practically all 
plantings of creeping Ever¬ 
greens should have not less than 
three or four trees set quite 
close together so as to give a 
mat-like appearance. A distance 
of two to three feet apart is not 
too close. 
This is a rare variety of dis¬ 
tinct character, which will help 
to lift your Evergreen planting 
out of the commonplace. It 
likes plenty of sun. Foliage is 
bright green. An extremely 
hardy type which will do well 
in poor soil.

the Arnold Arboretum in Boston. It is a
