N O family of Evergreens has gained such popularity in recent 
years as the Yew. Their dark rich color, hardiness, variety of 
form, ease to transplant, adaptability, freedom from disease 
or insects has merited this position. They all do well in the shade. 
We have one of the largest stocks in the South, and are using it 
in quantities for foundation planting and to replace boxwood, which 
so often freezes. 
Taxus cuspidata. Spreading Japanese Yew. Low, rather spreading type 
which is usually broader than high. Can be pruned into compact form to

^llllja ~ ARBOR 
Thuja occidentals. American Arbor- 
Vitae. One of the most popular Ever¬ 
greens because it grows well under 
adverse conditions, and as a specimen 
or hedge plant it is very attractive.

and while it is not green during the 
winter as most of the other varieties, 
it is one of the most popular because 
of its many good qualities. Each
