EVERGREENS 
Evergreens present a broad opportunity for plant lovers to produce 
rich and beautiful effects that cannot be surpassed by any other class 
of plants. Evergreens are used as specimens on lawns, also extensively 
for massing, shelterbelts, screens, hedges, etc. Many varieties adapt 
themselves and are indispensable in your foundation planting. They 
form perfect backgrounds for the flowering shrubs of early spring, for 
the berries of autumn and winter’s tracery of bright bark and twigs. 
Beautiful beds of permanent color are formed by grouping together 
sorts of moderate growth with contrasting foliage. . . . To be successful 
ARBORVITAE 
JUNIPER 
AMERICAN (Thuja occidentalis) —Does well 
in a sunny location but will stand some shade. 
A moist location is preferred. 
GLOBE (Thuja occidentalis globosa) —A 
globe shaped Arborvitae which does not require 
pruning to retain its shape. Dwarf in habit. 
PYRAMIDAL (Thuja occidentalis pyramid¬ 
al is) —Undoubtedly the most popular form of 
Arborvitae today. This tree fills a real need in 
landscaping and has a place of importance in 
practically every evergreen planting. Thrives 
best in a south or east exposure. 
SIBERIAN (Thuja occidentalis wareana)— 
A dwarf that can be trimmed to a globe or short 
pyramidal shape. The hardiest of the Arborvitae. 
CANNART (Jun. virginiana cannarti) —A 
pyramidal tree with rich, green foliage. Used 
sometimes in place of Pyramidal Arborvitae be¬ 
cause of its hardiness. 
CHINESE (Jun. chinensis) —Pyramidal tree 
of extremely robust nature. 
CHINESE PYRAMIDAL (Juniper chinensis 
py rami da I is) —A very compact tree growing 
extremely narrow. 
DUNDEE (Jun. virginiana pyramidiformia 
hiIli) —A recent introduction which has proven 
hardy and valuable in any landscape planting. 
It is superior to the Red Cedar because of its 
symmetrical compact growth and attractive 
coloring. Foliage is bluish-gray in the spring and 
summer and changes to a plum-like color in the 
fall and winter. Reaches a height of about 15 
feet unless sheared. 
BALSAM (Abies balsamea) —An erect, fast 
growing tree with deep green foliage. 
CONCOLOR (Abies concolor) —An upright, 
symmetrical tree. Striking foliage varying from 
light green to deep soft blue. 
GLAUCA (Jun. virginiana glauca) —Similar 
in habit of growth to Cannart. Foliage a bright 
silver. 
MEYERS’ (Jun. squamata meyerii) —A 
unique plant of recent introduction with irregu¬ 
lar growth. A very odd evergreen that can be 
used in an informal foundation planting. Height 
about 3 feet. 
PATHFINDER (Jun.scopolorum pathfinder) 
—A new introduction that promises to be one of 
our best pyramidal growing of the Silver Cedars.

of these this year.
