CONIFEROUS TREES AND EVERGREENS 
(Conifers are cone>bearing evergreen trees and shrubs) 
No home-grounds complete without them. They are beautiful both in winter and summer; in winter they supply 
the only living green in the landscape, and in summer, their rich, dark foliage contrasts beautifully with the brighter 
tones of deciduous trees and shrubs. They make an ideal background for any house, giving a gracious and dignified 
appearance which cannot be produced in any other manner.
