Juniper, Spiny Greek; Juniperus excelsa stricta 
Dense and narrowly conical, tapering gradually from the 
ground to a sharp point. Spiny grayish green, glauceous foliage. 
It reaches a height of about 10 ft. but grows slowly so may be 
used in plantings where a small tree is desired and changed to 
another location before it becomes too large.

Juniper, Sylvestris; Juniperus chinensis femina 
An upright-growing tree of moderate height; beautiful spiny 
soft green foliage. Its long side branches tend with age to make 
the tree almost as broad as high, consequently not adapted to 
formal plantings unless closely pruned.

Pine; Pinus 
A characteristic of the Pines is that the leaves or needles are 
in bundles of 2, 3 or 5, united at the base, and are longer than 
those of the Spruce which occur singly and apparently scattered 
all over the stem though arranged spirally. Most Pines make 
large trees though a few are dwarf. 
Pine, Austrian or Black; Pinus nigra 
Rugged and picturesque with age, its regular whorls of stout, 
spreading branches forming a symmetrical, conical head, some- 
times flat-topped when old; needles very aromatic, in pairs, dark 
rich green, 4 to 5 in. long; cones yellowish-brown 2 to 3% 
in. long; vigorous, becomes a large tree; should have plenty of 
room.

Pine, Mugho; Pinus montana mughus

kept lower by pruning; instead of a main trunk it is many- 
stemmed, low branched and dense, thickly covered with heavy 
dark green needles in pairs; cones cinnamon-brown 1 to 1% in. 
long; the new growth is whitish, somewhat resembling candles 
ornamenting the plant; a good foundation evergreen and may

erate in price.

Spruce, Moerheim; Picea pungens Moerheimi 
Perhaps the best of the Blue Spruces, it forms a dense, nar- 
rowly conical tree of great beauty. These are grafted and the 
needles are uniformly bright, intense blue. It should be remem- 
bered that all Blue Spruces are brightest in latter spring when 
the new growth develops. The blue color is a powder-like sub- 
stance on the needles, and part is gradually washed off by the 
and removed by the snows of winter.
