CRYPTOMERIA JAPONICA ELEGANS COMPACTA (Compact Plume 
Cryptomeria). Evergreen conifer. A green globe-shaped tree of un- 
usually compact growth and soft, pleasing effect. Unlike Elegans, 
it is more of a dwarf, about 5 feet in height. It is symmetrical and 
dense with little or no pruning. Bronzes slightly in the fall. Garden 
variety of Japonica Elegans, a most delightful garden ornamental. 
CYDONIA JAPONICA (Flowering Quince). Deciduous. Woody 
plant, handsome glossy foliage and abundant flowers in early 
spring, varying in all shades from light pink to deep scarlet, are 
highly decorative, and especially adapted for borders of shrub- 
beries and for low ornamental hedges. 
CYPRESS (See Chamaecyparis). 
CYTISUS (Broom). The improved brooms, which are of both Ameri- 
can and English origination, are among the most popular of recent 
introductions in the garden. For rich, gorgeous coloring and vary- 
ing shades and tints in the different varieties they have no equal. 
Among the flowers may be found white, purple, crimzon, orange, 
yellow, bronze, cream, mahogany, pink or combinations of these 
that are unsurpassed. In habit of growth they range from low 
trailers to tall upright types. Some of them will withstand a low 
degree of temperature and all will grow under adverse conditions 
and thrive under more neglect than most shrubs. They should be 
included in practically all plantings.

and heavily foliaged. Flowers are golden and borne in profusion. 
Considered by many as the best creeping broom.

loveliness possessed by the masses of shapely flowers. The Marie 
Burkwood is one of this class. Hardy. 
CYTISUS SCOPARIUS (Pomona). The blossoms are tri-colored in 
which scarlet red is outstanding, but is richly interspersed all 
through with splashes and dashes of cream and light gold, giving
