SPRINGFIELD, N. J. 
JUNIPERUS —Continued Each Ten Hundred 
communis. 2Vfe'-3' Common Juniper 
This bushy wide spreading form is often seen in ''founda¬ 
tion'' plantings where a transitional line is needed. 
Spring planting, good drainage and sun preferred. 
2 V 2 to 3 ft. spread, B. & B. 3.00 
— montana. IV2' Mountain Juniper 
In its native rocky home the large perfectly flat carpets of 
cheerful green are strikingly effective. The prostrate 
branches just 
reach out horizontally about 
a foot 
off the 
ground 
and 
cover surprisingly 
large areas. 
Scarce.

Has long prostrate branches that crawl over and around 
stones to spread its green plumes. A sunny rocky slope 
with plenty of room is ideal. Tinged lavender in winter. 
1 to IV 2 ft. spread, B. & B. 1.35 
— Bar Harbor. 6"-12" Bar Harbor Juniper 
Of all ground Junipers we rate this first, it actually "hugs" 
the ground and makes a velvety mat of gray-green foliage 
which in winter changes to a most attractive metallic 
purple and lavender coloring. Splendid for the rock garden.

Have you read that interesting little hook “Dwarf 
and Slow Growing Conifers” by Hornibrook? 
What a fascinating hobby this plant collecting is.
