Coniferous Evergreens. 
We believe that we may claim to grow the largest and most varied stock of these plants in the Southern States 
and especially of such varieties as are best adapted to this climate. The collection of Biotas, Cupressime, etc., com¬ 
prise many new and valuable varieties. 
Most of these plants are grown in pots from the time they are propagated, or during part of the year in open 
ground, and potted off in fall. ° y 
Biotas andRetinosporas, which always form amass of fibrous roots, are grown in open ground, but lifted for 
shipment with their rootsi in a ball of earth, which reduces the loss in transplanting. We would again urge the 
necessity of planting small, healthy pot-grown plants in preference to larger specimens which can only be furnished 
°P en f? r . oun d, and with these there is always connected some risk in transplanting. We append the height 
the different varieties may be expected to attain. The best seasons for transplanting are from November to Decem¬ 
ber, and from February to March. 
Prices for plants grown in 4 and 6 inch pots, or from open ground 50 cents each 
10 plants, our selection of varieties, J$4, or 10O for £25. 
We can supply fine specimen plants of many varieties at 81 to lO each, according to size. 
A new variety originated by us. Growth more erect 
than the Aurea, foliage intense gold, some of its 
branches being of a solid metalic tint, others suffused 
with green. 
BIOTA AUREA NANA 
(Berckmans Golden Arborvittc) 
12 to 15 inches high... .50 cents each, $4 for 10, $35 per 100. 
18 to 2o inches high_75 cents each, 6 for 10, 50 per 100. 
The most popular of all Biotas. Anew variety, which 
originated in our grounds. Of very dwarf and compact 
habit, a perfect gem for small gardens or cemetery lots. 
It far surpasses the old Biota Aurea where a very dwarf 
tree is desired. This plan t is very effective for window 
boxes and for tubs in exposed places where it is too cold 
for palms and other decorative plants.

en hue. The original plant, now standing in our grounds 
measures 18 feet in height and is 16 years old. 
Note —The last three described sub-varieties were se¬ 
lected from a lot of 10,000 seedlings, and are of transcend- 
ant values.
