PINE 
AUSTRIAN (Pinus nigra)—A very symme- 
trical upright growing Pine. One of our best 
Pines for specimen or group plantings. 
MUGHO (P. montana mughus)—Of low, 
dense spreading growth, with very dark green 
foliage. Very hardy. Ideal as dwarf specimen 
plants. 
PONDEROSA (Western Yellow or Bull) 
(Pinus ponderosa)—A valuable pine for 
ornamental windbreak planting. Very long 
needles and compact growth. 
WHITE (pinus strobus)—F ast growing and 
will do well in most any soil. 
SCOTCH (Pinus sylvestris)—This is a 
rugged grower and will stand a great deal of 
wind and drought. A very good windbreak tree. 
SPRUCE 
BLACK HILLS (Picea canadensis alberti- 
ana)—Next to the Colorado Spruce these trees 
are the most popular of the Evergreens. They 
are noted for their deep green color and 
symmetrical habit of growth. 
COLORADO BLUE (Picea pungens glauca) 
—This is the most popular Evergreen for 
specimen planting. Color of the foliage ranges 
from green to a silvery blue. We have a very 
fine large stock of this variety and offer un- 
limited selection. 
DWARF ALBERTA (Picea glauca conica)— 
A perfectly shaped tree in miniature. Grows 
with an extremely close, pyramidal growth, 
thickly covered with short close-set branches 
with grass green leaves. Perfectly hardy. 
NORWAY (Picea excelsa)—The fastest grow- 
ing variety of Spruce. 
WHITE (Picea canadensis )—Somewhat simi- 
lar to Black Hills Spruce but growth is faster 
and more open. 
YEW 
UPRIGHT (Taxus cuspidata)—The only 
evergreen that we can safely recommend for 
complete shade. They thrive in complete or 
partial shade. 
DWARF (Taxus cuspidata nana)—A variety 
of types is available. Yews have a rich, deep 
green foliage not available in any other variety. 
The Yews can be used in more varying con- 
ditions than any other class of evergreens that 
we offer. In addition to being able to withstand 
a great deal of shade, they thrive in open 
exposed conditions. We offer only a limited 
supply of these.
