Oriental Flowering Trees and Shrubs 
Suergreens 
CEDRUS ATLANTICA GLAUCA (Blue Atlas Cedar). Practically identical with the famed 
Cedar of Lebanon in appearance and habit of growth, but the foliage is blue; a 
particularly lovely and attractive tree that will attain majestic proportions in time, 
but not of particularly rapid growth. To the uninitiated it appears to be a larch 
when seen in the summer, but when it is viewed in the winter they wonder why 
this ''larch” keeps its foliage all winter. It is very unusual and very attractive. 
We sold several of these trees about twenty-five years ago and the present owners 
were offered $1,000 apiece for the trees, but have refused to sell. 
10 to 12 ft. $35.00 
Lighter trees of similar height at $25.00. 
CRYPTOMERIA (Japan Temple Tree). 
Japonica Lobbi. Tall and stately. Rich dark green foliage which becomes exception¬ 
ally attractive in the spring when the new growth is made. Very rare and 
much in demand. With few exceptions our trees are branched to the ground 
and are symmetrical, as they have been pruned annually and transplanted 
freguently. 
This method produces excellent compact 
trees.
