Oriental Arbor Vitae 
Provides an interesting accent in this 
charming garden 
• The contrast between mature foliage 
and young growth bursting from the 
buds in spring, the brilliant color of pol¬ 
len blooms and the exquisite form of 
cones on older trees, give to conifers a 
variety that is too often overlooked.
