perfection throughout California. It has an abundance of 
drooping branches with a beautiful silvery green foliage. It is pyramidal in 
shape and often attains the height of 120 feet.

Cvoress Macrocaroa Commonly known throughout California as the 
“Monterey Cypress,” and is more widely planted 
(Cupressus) than any other variety. 
Its value when planted for wind break purposes is unequalled. It is also 
largely used for hedge purposes. 
The foliage is of a grayish green and imparts a fine odor. This is a native 
of California, and one of the most desirable evergreens planted in the state. 
To those desiring a tree in new countries where a wind break is desired, 
we feel that the Monterey Cypress cannot be recommended too highly.

Eucalyptus Globulus Commonly known throughout California as “Blue 
Gum.” It is a beautiful upright, strong grower, 
possessing a bluish foliage. The wood of this variety is not as valuable as 
that of the red gum but it certainly is a very desirable tree for avenue and 
shade purposes. The wood is used principally for fuel. Often attains a 
height of 200 feet. 
Eucalyptus Robusta This variety is commonly known as the “Swamp 
Mahogany Gum.” It is highly prized by bee keep¬

ornamental. 
It is claimed, by many, to be particularly valuable for planting in low 
ground where the moisture is near the surface. 
Eucalyptus Rostrata Commonly known as the “Red Gum.” Is a very

makers, as it takes an exceptionally high polish and is very valuable for inter¬ 
ior finish, as well as for the making of pianos, furniture, etc. When used 
for fence posts, piles, ties, etc., its keeping qualities are of the best. We 
recommend this variety to those who wish to plant eucalyptus extensively. 
Eucalyptus Rudis Another of the “Red Gum” varieties and bears the 
reputation of being able to withstand more cold
