PINES (Pinus) 
Pines are used as screens, backgrounds for gardens, along driveways, groups for

beds, at entrances, and in numerous other positions in the garden where low growing 
Evergreens are required.

compared with some. Compact; dark green foliage, long needles. Makes an excellent 
specimen tree for either large or smal! estates. 2-3 ft. $3:50, 3-4 ft. $4.50. 
MUGHO (Pinus montana mughus). An attractive dwarf Pine, seldom growing 
more than 4 feet in height, the spread even exceeding the height. Especially attrac-
