THUJA—TSUGA 
Thuja (Arborvitae) 
T he American Arborvitae is the one dwarf and medium size group 
of evergreens which prefers the wind and cold, the snow and ice, 
of winter in the extreme north. Arborvitae grows in any good soil and 
even withstands poor drainage. For best results it should be sheared 
neatly every summer, being careful to keep the bottom broader than 
the top. There is a large assortment of varietal forms.

Cordata (Littleleaf Linden) 
Native Aristocrats 
Some of our finest native shrubs are easily 
transplanted from the wild and take readily 
to cultivation. On the next page are de¬ 
scribed and pictured a special “Young Aris¬ 
tocrat” grade 12 to 15 inches with a small 
ball, weighing one or two pounds only. This 
stock is not to be compared for a minute 
with ordinary collected plants, pulled out 
by the roots and bundled together. It is on 
the contrary all carefully dug, the greatest 
pains being taken to preserve the roots. 
Carefully packed and shipped by express 
it is easily planted and young enough to 
make a quick start. Shipped from North 
Carolina, yet express runs only about 5c 
• each anywhere east of Iowa.
