Iraseri. Fraser’s Fir. A distinct species from the highest peaks of the 
Carolina mountains; makes a perfect specimen lawn and screen tree, 
with dark green, thick-set foliage (blue underneath) and compact, 
pyramidal habit. It is one of the choicest of all American conifers 
of the Fir section, not to be compared with the northern species, 
Abie* fxiUamea, which is almost worthless in any but the latitude of 
middle and northern Maine, us it becomes “leggy,” thin, and is 
short-lived. An unusually fine lot of this splendid Fir. The attention 
of nurserymen is particularly called to the Abie* fra*eri as the best 
Fir of this type that is grown in this country. The sizes listed below 
are especially bushy and well-rooted. It seems perfectly at home in 
the South, thriving where few' other evergreens of this class can be 
grown with success. There are few evergreens we can recommend 
so highly.
