PINUS • Pine TAXUS • Yew THUJA • Arborvitae 
The Pines are essentially inhabitants of 
poor, sandy soils and dry situations. Their 
stout root systems enable them to seek scanty 
water supplies where other species find it 
difficult, and they thrive in any good soil. 
Densiflora umbraculifera (Japanese Um¬ 
brella Pine). “Tanyosho” is a vivid green, 
flat topped cushion that very slowly ex¬ 
pands with age. An occasional “bobbing” 
of the new growth in Spring will increase 
its neat formal appearance. Each 
2K to 3 ft.$4.00

Excelsa. Each

Mugho compacta. Hill’s (Dwarf Mountain 
Pine). This compact variety of Mugho is 
now taking the place of the ordinary form. 
It forms a dense bush and keeps below 
4 ft. in height. Each

Nigra austriaca (Austrian or Black Pine). 
This flourishes near the seacoast and on 
high, bleak hills or in cities where smoke 
and dust would prohibit the use of many 
other evergreens. Each 
3 to 4 ft.$3.00

Resinosa (Red Pine). Native in northeastern 
states and Canada. It is often planted in 
places where no other Pine will grow. Its 
luxuriant, dark green foliage and vigorous 
growth make it an important Pine for bold 
effects. Very hardy and adapts itself to 
many situations and soils. Each 
4 to 5 ft.$3.00

Strnhiic (White or Weymouth Pine). This 
otrumis j s b ea utiful in every stage of its 
growth, from a seedling to a stately tree of 
150 ft. We must give it chief place among 
our native Pines. No other evergreen ful¬ 
fills so well the requirements for rapid 
growth, beauty, and harmony in the land¬ 
scape and quick effect as a screen, and 
none transplants more easily. Our large 
specimens, 35 ft. high and 18 ft. broad. 
may be moved with perfect safety. Each 
4 to 5 ft.$3.00
