Abies nobilis (Noble Fir) 
The name noble describes this magnificent tree perfectly. A native of the 
Coast and Cascade mountains of western Washington and Oregon where its 
dignified appearance is set out in striking effect. The branches grow in 
whorls with great regularity along the main stem of the tree and are broadly 
spreading toward the tips. The foliage is usually a beautiful bluish green in 
color. It is valuable for landscaping purposes and the best of all for the 
production of Christmas trees. Rach 10 100 1000

Arstostaphylos patula (Greenleaf Manzanita) 
An irregularly branched, yet nicely rounded and shapely broad leaved ever- 
green. Height 2 to 4 feet. Needs little pruning as the natural growth gives the 
impression of tailored shrub. ‘The bark of the stems is smooth, rich brown 
and mahogany in color. The leaves are about 1 inch in diameter, almost 
perfectly round, and have a delightful appearance of freshness summer and 
winter. Is most impressive when it grows in masses, as it grows on the slopes 
of the Oregon mountains where it is native. Leaves retain their refreshing 
verdant greenness under exceedingly dry and trying conditions. Here is a 
shrub of great beauty, and one which survives great extremes of heat, cold 
and drought without injury.

Arctostaphylos uva-ursi (Kinnikinnick) 
Sometimes called Bearberry. Uva, Latin for grape, ursi for bear. A lovely 
low trailing evergreen, flourishing in a wide range of latitude and altitude. 
In Oregon it is at home from the splash of the waves of the Pacific to timber- 
line in the Cascade mountains. Withstands almost any degree of cold. Has 
large red berries, roundish glossy leaves and grows in thick masses, completely 
covering the ground, rocks, walls or old logs over which it trails. Exempt 
from pests, good the year round and in every respect decidedly pleasing and 
satisfying. Considered by some to be the best ground cover known.

Aucuba japonica (Greenleaf Aucuba) (Pollenizers) 
Male plants. Aucubas seldom bear berries unless pollenizers are planted with 
them. The large red berries are one of the attractive features of Aucubas and 
it is therefore essential to plant the pollenizers. The foliage is fine solid deep 
green.
