Pinus nigra (Austrian Pine)—See page 5 
Thuja 
T. orientalis standishi. 12 , -15'. Standisb Arborvilae. 
Rather sorrowful, but provides a welcome “break” 
62 with its open branches, irregular pyramidal habit and 
coarse growth. The south side tones down to a warm 
bronze in Winter. 
T. recurva nana. 5'-6'. Compact Globe Arborvitae. 
63 Very slow, compact growth; blunt, pyramidal, 
head. Feathery foliage. 
T. occidentalis wareana. 12'-15'. Siberian Arborvitae. 
Exceedingly hardy, this dense growing form makes a 
64 splendid hedge, although as a spot pfant its rugged, 
broad pyramid is worthy of consideration. Is long 
lived and improves with age. 
HEMLOCK 
TSUGA canadensis. 70'-80'. Canada Hemlock. Grace, 
dignity and beauty have conspired successfully to 
65 make this American a living example of magnificent 
stateliness. With plenty of space the tree claims 
right to its noble forest stature, but is willing to be 
clipped into hedges—splendid walls of close-textured 
green. 1 lalf shade or a north slope is preferred. 
Tsuga 
T. canadensis pendula. 6'-8'. Sargent Weeping Hemlock. 
Makes a tremendous mound of wavy outline many 
66 times broader than high, always well clothed and neat. 
Like all good things it develops slowly but becomes a 
real possession in your “personal effects.” Magni¬ 
ficent. 
T. caroliniana. 40'-50'. Carolina Hemlock. Compared 
with the “Canada” Hemlock, this southerner has 
67 longer. Yewlike foliage, irregularly disposed on the 
twigs, and the spreading, half-drooping branches are 
so arranged as to create splendid shadow patterns. 
Absolutely hardy, in fact, the foliage seems proof 
against sun scalding. 
T. diversifolia. 12'-15'. Japanese Hemlock. A slow, 
6S compact grower, short, stubby needles.
