CONIFEROUS 
EVERGREENS 
A class of plants that is used far too little in Southern California. They are strikingly handsome at all 
times, are generally disease free and require practically no attention. They are, most of them, drought 
_resistant and are not affected by extremes of temperatures. What more could we ask?

LIBOCEDRUS DECURRENS 
STATELY DEODAR 
Cedrus Deodara. Himalayan Cedar. This is not only the 
most suitable tree for lighting at Christmas time but the 
stateliness of its lofty trunk, grace of its drooping branches 
and the blue-green of its needle-like foliage has endeared the 
tree to all of us. Thrives in Southern California with little 
attention. 80 ft. Specimen plants balled, 4-5 ft., $3.50; 3-4 ft., 
$2.75; 2-3 ft., $2.00; 5-gal. containers, $2.00; gal. containers, 
60c. 
BLUE LAWSON CYPRESS 
Chamaecyparis Lawsoniana Allumii. Because of its com- 
pact pyramidal shape and glistening blue-green foliage this 
small evergreen is becoming more popular each year. The 
plant grows and thrives in alkaline-free soil. A most useful 
plant to break harsh corners of buildings, to frame large 
windows or to relieve the monotony of tall walls. 10 ft. 
Balled, 2%4-3 ft., $2.50; 5-gal. containers, $1.75; gal. contain- 
ers, 50c. 
NEW HEDGE CYPRESS 
Cupressus Forbesii. Forbes Cypress. A native Californian 
which resembles the common Monterey Cypress but seems 
to be subject to none of its ills. Borers and fungus, so preva- 
lent in the Monterey variety, apparently do not attack 
Forbesii. Grows rapidly and is quite hardy. 20 ft. 5-gal. con- 
tainers, $1.75; gal. containers, 50c; flats of about 100 plants, 
$3.00. 
A ROYAL CYPRESS 
Cupressus sempervirens. Royal Italian Cypress. No other 
Italian Cypress can compare with this variety. Its short 
lateral branches grow thick and compact and the tree re- 
3-3% ft, 
tains its slender form (and without any aggravating diet 
list) through many years. Specimen trees, balled, 6-7 ft., 
$3.00; 5-6 ft., $2.25; 4-5 ft. $1.80; 5-gal. containers, $2.00; 
egal. containers, 60c. 
PERMANENT CHRISTMAS TREE 
Juniperus chinensis foemina. If you want a permanent 
Christmas Tree, one that will not outgrow a small space 
this tree will certainly fill the bill. It grows in a pyramidal 
manner to 15 ft. and the strong branches will hold many 
lights and decorations. Every time you see the tree you'll 
be looking around the corner for Santa Claus. 5-gal. con- 
tainers, $2.50. 
PFITZER’S JUNIPER 
Juniperus chinensis Pfitzeriana. This outstanding juniper 
is extensively used in drive and walk intersections, under 
windows and as a foreground plant in combination with 
other conifers. The silvery foliage maintains a handsome 
appearance always. The plant is hardy in every respect and 
will thrive under rather moist as well as dry conditions. 
Grows to about 4 ft. tall with a 6 ft. spread. May easily be 
controlled by pruning if desired. Balled specimens 2-2™% it., 
$2.00; 114-2 ft., $1.80; 5-gal. containers, $1.75; gal. containers, 
Se. 
TWISTED JUNIPER 
Juniperus chinensis torulosa. A low evergreen to 6 or 8 it. 
with curiously twisted branches that are clothed with soft 
tufted bright green foliage. Not particular as to soil. Sun. 
5-gal. containers, $2.50; gal. containers, 75c. 
A PROSTRATE BEAUTY 
Juniperus horizontalis procumbens. We know of few 
plants that may be put to as many uses as this variety. Its 
slender prostrate blue green branches may be draped along 
the edge of pools. In the rock garden it will clamber artisti- 
cally over stones or employed as a low covering for banks 
and parkings the clean disease-resistant foliage is handsome 
in any season. Grows to 6 in. in height and spreads to 4 ft. 
Balled, 2-2% ft., $2.25; 1%4-2 ft., $1.80; 5-gal. containers, $1.75; 
gal. containers, 50c. 
SABINS DWARF JUNIPER 
Juniperus Sabina tamariscifolia. Our nomination for the 
best low juniper. There isn’t a day in the year that this proud 
plant does not look its best. During the spring and autumn 
growing season all of the tender branch tips are a sparkling 
frosty green which changes in winter and summer to the 
richest blue green imaginable. Grows densely to 16 or 18 in. 
tall and to 4 ft. in width. Hardy and disease-resistant. Balled, 
bushy 1%-2 ft. $1.80; 5-gal. containers, $1.75; gal. con- 
tainers, 50c. 
INCENSE CEDAR 
Libocedrus decurrens. Tall, stately, conical in shape this 
native Californian carries its flat compact dark green foliage 
to the ground. Everyone enjoys the pungent woodsy fra- 
grance of the branches. For planting in parkings, against 
tall buildings or as specimens about the grounds no trees 
could present a neater or more impressive appearance. Balled 
2.50; 5-gal. containers, $2.00. 
BLUE SPRUCE 
Picea pungens glauca. Everyone has admired the silvery- 
blue shapliness of these small compact evergreens. They 
make ideal outdoor Christmas trees as they never grow so 
large they cannot be easily decorated. The frosty coolness of 
their thick needle-like foliage brings up thoughts of snow 
and crisp autumn mornings. They enjoy moisture and good 
drainage. Specimen trees in tubs, $6.50 and $12.50. See color 
illustration, page 31.
