*Taxus canadensis. 2% foot; wide spreading branches; best for large 
rock gardens and banks. 75c. 
T. cuspidata nana (brevifolia). Spreading shrub with short branches and 
comparatively wide leaves. $1.35. 
*Tsuga canadensis Sargentii pendula. A graceful cascading growth main¬ 
taining its low stature but piling plume on plume so that it continual¬ 
ly widens. New pale green branchlets spring and fall. $3.00. 
Slow-growing conifers. These are very desirable, interestingly shaped 
small trees for accents in large rock gardens and for small groups 
elsewhere. We need to move them. They are priced accordingly. 
Chamaecyparis obtusa. $1.25. 
C. o. filicoides. $1.25. 
C. o. gracilis. $1.25. 
Picea orientalis. $1.00. 
PITTOSPORACEAE 
Billardiera longiflora. Australia; a subshrubby vine; flowers tubular 
greenish purple-yellow. Not much to be said for the flowers but the 
vine slung over a small shrub and heavily hung with small glossy egg¬ 
plant-like fruit, both as to color and form, is another matter. 75c. 
PLUMBAGINACEAE 
ArmefTa caespitosa. 3 inch; rounded much branched cushion with nar¬ 
row needle-like leaves crowding the ends of branches and thickly 
studded with silvery bracted heads of pale pink flowers. 40c.

ruby flowers. 40c.

4 inches with many small purple flowers. Late summer. 35c. 
POLEMONiACEAE

wide smooth leaves; innumerable flowers % inch across; shell pink. 
In the wild this plant grows in deep cool mold in the shade of trees or 
exposed on sunny ledges but with water percolating at its roots. 50c. 
Phlox subulata Apple Blossom. Narrow foliage and shell-pink flowers. 25c. 
P. s. Blue Hills. Dark leaves; mauve-blue flowers. 25c. 
P. s. Camla. Large, flesh-pink flowers; very free flowering; approaching 
the beauty of P. adsurgens and perfectly easy. Only small plants. 35c.
