CONIFEROUS EVERGREENS 
These plants make beautiful individual lawn specimens. The different 
colors—yellow, green, dark green, and blue-green—give a striking effect 
when planted in masses, when groups are made up either of a single 
kind, or of a number of different kinds. They make an excellent back¬ 
ground for other shrubs and are of great value in foundation plantings. 
For hedges they are unsurpassed. In planting for a hedge, they should be 
given more distance than other hedge plants—4 to 5 feet apart is not too 
much. As plants for porches or porch-steps, they are very satisfactory. 
They are hardy and long lived. The conifers grown at Glen Saint Mary 
and offered to our customers have been tested for many years, and include 
the finest material for Southern gardens.
