Deciduous Trees and Shrubs 
The Linn County Nurseries 
—White, P. strobus, 60-100 ft. 
The softest foliage of the pines. Endures some shade. 
It is the longest lived and especially beautiful. Must 
be in well-drained soil. 
SPRUCE—Black Hills, 50-70 ft. 
A native of the Black Hills. It does very well over 
a wide range and makes the finest specimens of all 
spruce. This is a very variable species, ranging 
from very compact dwarfs to more open, rapid¬ 
growing trees, and from clear green to silvery blue- 
green. Our trees are mostly a very compact and 
slow-growing type. In dry seasons it should be 
closely watched and treated for red spider. 
—Colorado Blue, Picea pungens, 25-40 ft. 
—Selected Blue Specimens, Shiners . 
More used as a specimen tree than any other ever¬ 
green. Rather slow-growing, regular, compact, with 
very sharply pointed blue foliage. Subject to red 
spider injury if neglected. 
—Green Specimens . 
The same fine, compact form as the Shiners, but 
with clear green or slightly blue-green foliage. 
Sometimes but not always, they develop a blue 
color with age. Larger sizes are $1.00 per ft. 
YEWS (TAXUS) are particularly valuable for plant¬ 
ing in shady places and cities where the smoky at¬ 
mosphere is injurious to other evergreens. Their 
bright red fruits among the dark green leaves make 
them the most interesting of all evergreens in late 
summer. They stand much trimming, are long lived, 
and free from pests. Plant in rich soil, well mixed 
with peat or humus.
