canadensis 
Canadian Hemlock 
A native evergreen that will stand partial 
shade. Its graceful branches make it desirable 
in any planting. Will stand pruning and grow 
on moist soil. Was used largely for old time 
hedges and should be used more. Suitable for 
foundation planting or as a specimen tree. The 
thick reddish bark on old trees, free from pitch, 
makes it desirable for a picnic grove. As a 
forest tree it makes good lumber and can be 
planted in quite wet ground under partial 
shade. Very picturesque when its drooping 
branches are laden with snow. Grown as border 
or screen background.
