EVERGREENS 
Evergreens have become very popular in the last few years in landscape plantings. 
The dark green foliage contrasts well with winter surroundings. 
Those who cannot afford plantings which give an immediate effect can plant smaller 
size evergreens which* will make fine growth in two or three years. We would be glad 
to give suggestions for evergreen plantings-. 
JUNIPER 
PFITZER’S JUNIPER. The most popular 
of all spreading Evergreens. Its peculiarly 
graceful, distinctive manner, plus an un¬ 
usually hardy nature, makes it particular¬ 
ly fascinating and desirable for founda¬ 
tion planting. 
PRICE: 18 to 24 inch, $1.50. 
SABINA. A type similar to Pfitzer, but 
growing not quite so rank, but intending 
to be more vase shape, with the color of 
the foliage a darker green. 
PRICE: 18 to 24 inch, $1.50. 
HORIZONTALIS. A handsome serviceable 
ground cover. The foliage quite thick and 
threadlike, with a fresh gray green color. 
Also very useful in rock garden work. 
PRICE: 18 to 24 inch, $1.50. 
IRISH: Erect, slender and formal in hab¬ 
it, with sage green foliage, very compact 
making a splendid column. A very good 
substitute for Pyramid Arbor Vitae. 
PRICE: 18 to 24 inch, $1.50. 
EXCELSA. Stricta, Spiny Greek Juniper. 
A very dense and dwarf variety with beau¬ 
tiful blue green color. Cone shaped, slow 
growing and very useful in borders and 
foundation plantings. 
PRICE: 12 to 15 inch, $1.25. 
Electric current is now so general it is 
possible to have an electrically lighted 
tree at Christmas time. We can supply 
fine trees for this x>urpose at $1.00 each. 
ARBO VITA 
PYRAMIDALIS. A very dense columnar 
type, with dark green foliage, probably the 
most compact and erect of all the Arbor 
Vitae. The most popular upright evergreen 
for planting on either side of an entrance, 
or very correctly used as accent points, 
such as corners and pillars. 
PRICE: 2 to 3 feet, $1.50. 
GLOBOSA. Forms a dense low natural 
Evergreen Tr< 
globe. Fine for planting in the foreground 
of a foundation planting. Always a dwarf 
and never requires trimming to maintain 
its smooth round shape.

SPRUCE 
NORWAY SPRUCE. The original and 
most popular Christmas tree of this sec¬ 
tion. A lofty tree at maturity with 
branches evenly spaced and making the 
tree well rounded and always a specimen. 
Very popular and effective in groups and 
one of the best for hedges. It is dark green 
in color, except the new growth in spring, 
which is a silvery blue, and is very showy 
against the older darker needles. 
PRICE: 12 to 15 in., 50c; 2 to 3 ft., $1.00. 
BLACK HILLS. Very slow in growing 
and very bushy in type, retaining this form

green.

COLORADO BLUE. A selected strain of 
the Colorado which is steel blue in color.

probably the showiest and most impressive 
of all the evergreens.

MUGHO PINE. The only dwarf pine. 
Leaves short, stiff, and very formal. 
Branches short and very close to each oth¬ 
er, giving the appearance of a solid mass 
of dark rich green. Grows spreading us¬ 
ually assuming a globular form. Used in 
foreground of plantings and for accent 
points. 
PRICE: 12 to 15 inch, $1.00.

pine and shows a little reddish brown in 
its bark and cones.
