15 ft. As it is a slow grower, this evergreen is useful in 
small plantings. It has bright golden yellow foliage. 
Larger specimens priced on application. 
C. pisifera plumosa. Plume Retinispora. 35 to 40 ft. This 
plant forms a dense cone of fine texture and feathery 
appearance. The branchlets are a bright green. Formal 
shapes may be made by judicious pruning. 
C. pisifera plumosa aurea. Golden Plume Retinispora. 
25 to 30 ft. Its warm yellow foliage is the only respect 
in which this evergreen differs from the Plume Retinis¬ 
pora. 
C. pisifera squarrosa Veitchi. Moss Retinispora. 25 to 
30 ft. Its blue-green foliage, feathery and dense, gives 
this plant a soft wool-like appearanc. It is a distinct 
and very beautiful variety. 
C. viridissima. 15 to 25 ft. This is, apparently, an un¬ 
usually compact and improved form of the Plume 
Retinispora. 
CHAM/EDAPHNE calyculata. Leather-Leaf. 1 to 3 ft. The 
leaves, dull green above and rusty beneath, are borne on 
horizontal or spreading branches. White, Iily-of-the- 
valley-Iike flowers appear in great profusion in the early 
summer. This plant is little used but is one which should 
be known by everyone. 
CHASTE-TREE. See Vitex. 
CHERRY, Flowering. See Prunus serrulata, P. subhirtella, 
and P. tomentosa.

lb mollissima.

most unusual shrub with Willow-like foliage and showy, 
bignonia-like flowers of lilac with yellow stripes inside. 
Chamaecyparis pisifera plumosa 
CHINQUAPIN. See Castanea pumila. 
CHIONANTHUS virginica. White Fringe-Tree. 15 to 18 ft. This is one

white, tassel-like flowers in May and June are followed by blue-black, 
plum-like fruit. 
CHOKEBERRY. See Aronia. 
CHRISTMAS-BERRY. See Photinia. 
CINQUEFOIL, Shrubby. See Potentilla. 
CITRUS trifoliata. Trifoliate Orange. 8 to 16 ft. A small tree armed with 
very strong, stiff thorns about 1^2 inches long. The golden yellow fruit, 
about the size of a walnut, is covered with short hairs, and its pulp is 
dry, sour, and bitter, thus making it of little use. The Trifoliate Orange is 
an excellent plant for hedges as it forms a close, compact growth which 
nothing can penetrate. Large sizes cannot be transplanted successfully. 
CLADRASTIS lutea. Yellow-Wood. 30 to 35 ft. A beautiful tree with a 
wide, graceful head and a short trunk. It is quite striking with its large 
panicles of fragrant white flowers and bright green leaves.

flowers varying to white. 
C. Jackmani. Jackman Clematis. A very desirable vine with large, deep 
purple, velvet-like blooms which have a center tuft of pale green stamens. 
This is the most popular of the Clematis. 
C. Jackmani, Mme. Edouard Andre. This is one of the best of the Cle¬ 
matis with its large, soft, dark red flowers. 
C. paniculata. Sweet Autumn Clematis. A vigorous climber which makes 
a thick screen in a short time. Its fragrant, feathery white flowers bloom 
profusely in the early autumn. 
C. virginiana. Virgin’s Bower. As it grows wild, this vine is suited to 
naturalistic plantings and informal effects. Its dainty white flowers 
appear in great numbers. 
CLERODENDRON trichotomum. Harlequin Glory-Bower. 4 to 8 ft. An 
attractive, erect shrub that is little used but one which deserves a wider 
distribution. It bears a white flower, with a red-brown calyx, and 
bright blue fruit. 
Clematis Jackmani
