PART I 
Conifers 
ABIES pinsapo glauca, BLUE SPANISH FIR, (6). Entitled to rank among the aristocrats for 
both scarcity and beauty. It is a variety of the handsome Spanish Fir with bluish green, decid- 
edly glaucous leaves. It can be reproduced only by grafting so will always be scarce and who- 
ever has one may well be proud of it. Balled 3-4 ft. $5.00, 2-3 ft. $4.00, 114-2 ft. $3.00; gallon 
cans 2-214 ft. $1.50; pot grown 114-2 ft. $1.00. 
CEDRUS atlantica glauca, BLUE ATLAS CEDAR, (6). The most magnificent silver-hued coni- 
fer. Rather thin when young but with age fills out fully and symmetrically. Makes a large tree, so » 
requires plenty of room. Balled 14-16 ft. $25.00, 12-14 ft. $20.00, 10-12 ft. $15.00, 6-8 ft. $7.50, 
b-6 tt $9:00, 445 sft, $3:50,.93-4 ft-53.00; 
CEDRUS libani compacta, COMPACT CEDAR OF LEBANON, (5). A remarkable dwarf 
form which makes no leader but grows in compact bushy form. Very useful where a small coni- 
fer of its type is needed. Also makes an excellent tub plant. Balled 114-2 ft. $3.00, 1-114 ft. $2.25; 
pot grown 6-8 in. 75c. 
CHAMAECYPARIS lawsoniana fletcheri, FLETCHER CYPRESS, (5). This is hardly known 
at all but is a beauty. A large shrub, not a tree. Foliage is finely cut, lacy and rich silvery blue. It 
does not seem to thrive in full sun here but does admirably in partial or moderate shade. Balled 
2-3 ft. $3.00, 114-2 ft. $2.25, 1-114 ft. $1.75; pot grown 114-2 ft. 85c, 1-144 ft. 75c. 
CHAMAECYPARIS lawsoniana minima, (5). A charming and extremely dwarf conifer with rich 
green plumose foliage. Growth is of course very slow indeed. Makes a beautiful miniature in 
either container, garden or rock garden. Balled 12-15 in. $2.50, 8-12 in. $2.00, 6-8 in. $1.25; pot 
grown 4-6 in. $1.00. 
CUPRESSUS cashmeriana, CASHMERE CYPRESS, (814). A rare and beautiful cypress. The 
finely divided foliage has a bright silvery hue and the branchlets droop gracefully. Grows rapidly 
and makes a tall tree. A. M. C. H. S. pot grown 1-114 ft. 85c. 
JUNIPERUS japonica var., SAN JOSE JUNIPER, (4). Found here as a sport of one of the 
creeping Junipers. Color is about sage green, much more pleasing than Chinese Creeping Juniper. 
We believe it is going to prove a useful addition to the short list of good prostrate conifers. 
Graded by width: balled 3-4 ft. $3.50, 214-3 ft. $3.00, 2-2% ft. $2.50, 114-2 ft. $2.00. 
PICEA smithiana, HIMALAYAN WEEPING SPRUCE, (6). A rare and very striking conifer. 
Its main growth is perfectly erect but the branches and branchlets are somewhat drooping. Foliage 
is fairly silvery. Quite rare. Balled 2144-3 ft. $4.00, 2-214 ft. $3.00, 114-2 ft. $2.50; pot grown 
114-2 ft. $1.00, 1-14 ft. 85c. 
SEQUOIA gigantea pendula, WEEPING GIANT SEQUOIA, (6). Whoever has seen an old 
specimen of this will confirm our opinion that it is one of weirdest and most striking conifers 
known and exemplifies the marvelous capability for variation that trees possess. When young it 
is a slender columnar tree with branches growing directly down; with age it may assume almost 
any imaginable form. Quite rare. Balled 4-5 ft. $5.00, 3-4 ft. $4.00. 
Broad Leaved Evergreens 
ALYOGYNE hakeafolia, (9). A most beautiful newcomer from Australia. Flowers are large, 
funnel shaped, lilac-blue with red throat. It grows rapidly to about eight or ten feet and blooms 
most profusely over a long period during the summer. Should be cut back to firm wood every 
year. All who see it admire it. Pot grown 2-2! ft. 75c, 1-114 ft. 50c. 
*ARDISIA japonica, JAPANESE ARDISIA, (5-6). Here is a delightful slow growing, acid and 
shade loving shrub which probably won't get over sixteen or eighteen inches tall and about as 
wide. Its dark green foliage is very handsome. When only four or five inches tall it commences 
to bear pale pink flowers followed by showy red berries as attractive as those of Van Tol Holly. 
Incidentally this is not the plant described in “Bailey” under this name but agrees with page 756 
of 2nd edition of Rehder’s Handbook. Pot grown 6-8 in. 75c, 4-6 in. 60c. 
*BAROSMA scoparia, (9-10). Our young plants have been grown from seed imported from 
South Africa where it is said to be a heath-like shrub growing to about four ft. with pale mauve 
flowers. They haven't had time to bloom but we are very favorably impressed with their neat 
attractive deep green foliage. Pot grown 8-10 in. 50c.
