TSUGA, Continued. 
caroliniana, CAROLINA HEMLOCK. 30-70 ft. Introduced 
to cultivation by Harlan P. Kelsey. Prof. Sargent considered 
this “The handsomest conifer we can grow in New England." 
Unique in habit, with dark dense tufted foliage on sweeping 
pendulous branches. It is hardier and more adapted to trying 
city atmospheres than the Canada Hemlock and seems to thrive 
in southern latitudes where the latter becomes thin, yellow 
and unsightly. No garden should be without this glorious 
evergreen. We have the finest stock of perfect specimens in 
America. All lift with fine balls due to frequent transplant¬ 
ings. It is unsurpassed as a hedge plant.
