CONCOLOR FIR (White Silver). Lg. The showiest 
of the Firs. A beautiful picturesque species from 
Colorado, with long thick needles, varying from a 
light green to a soft blue. The branches, which are 
arranged in horizontal whorls, are re¬ 
tained to the ground even when the tree 
gets older. A good specimen tree for the 
lawn, or for color contrasts in groups of 
trees of darker colors. 
DOUGLAS FIR. Lg. The growth is symmetrical, 
forming a spreading pyramid. This is one of the best 
and hardiest of the Firs. It is a rapid grower and 
thrives well in almost any situation. 
The Junipers form one of the most important groups of evergreens for landscape planting. 
The Pyramidal and upright forms make beautiful specimens for entrance and group plantings, 
where you need an architectural emphasis. The spreading forms are very good for foundation 
plantings and edgings for the taller trees. The prostrate forms are used for ground covers and 
rock gardens. As a family they are effective in all landscape plantings because of their variation 
in form and color tints. They are extremely hardy and of rapid growth. Prefer a sunny situation 
Do well in all the sandy and drier soils of the state.
