COLORADO BLUE SPRUCE 
COLORADO BLUE (Picea pungens glauca). This species has been test¬ 
ed at various points on the prairies West and Northwest with perfect 
success, enduring a temperature of 30 degrees below zero in exposed 
situations, entirely uninjured. This is not only one of the hardiest, but 
the most beautiful in color and outline; of a rich blue or sage color; it 
is a valuable acquisition. 2 ft.. $2.00; 3 ft., $4.00 
BLUE SPRUCE SHINERS. The bluest of Blue Spruces, this the 
most remarkable and conspicuous of all the conifers for ornamental 
planting. Being all symmetrical and shapely, its ideal purpose is as 
a specimen when owing to its magnificent, vivid bluisn coloring it 
constantly attracts attention wherever it is planted. 
2 ft., $2.50; 3 ft., $5.00 
NORWAY. A lofty elegant tree of perfect pyramidal habit, remarkably 
elegant and rich, and as it gets age, has fine, graceful, pendulous 
branches; it is exceedingly picturesque and beautiful. Very popular, 
and deservedly so. One of the best evergreens for hedges and wind¬ 
breaks. 2 ft., 50c; 3 ft., $1.00

HEMLOCK 
(Tsuga Canadensis) 
The finest evergreen for heavy shade and both beautiful and de¬ 
pendable wherever used. Its lace-like foliage is close-set and 
darkly lustrous, growing in rather flat fronds which droop grace¬ 
fully. Best known as a moderate grower, withstands severe prun¬ 
ing, and is consequently used much at corners, as foundation 
screens or in formally sheared high hedges.
