CONIFEROUS 
EVERGREENS 
We still cannot understand why you folks do not plant more conifers. There is no other class of 
plant material that is as drought or disease resistant, they are never injured by frost and are neat and 
presentable in every season. 

DEODAR—Grows rapidly. Requires little water or attention. 
PLEASE NOTE, following descriptions, approximate 
heights plants will grow. 
STATELY DEODAR 
Cedrus deodara. Himalayan Cedar. Pyramidal in habit; 
stately in growth and clothed with blue green needles on 
graceful drooping branches. Requires very little water after 
the first few years and withstands heavy winds. Is often 
decorated indoors at Christmas time, then planted in the 
garden. 80 ft. Balled, 5-6 ft., $8.00; 4-5 ft., $7.00; 3-4 ft., $5.50; 
5-gal. containers, $3.50; gal. containers, $1.25. 
BLUE LAWSON CYPRESS 
Chamaecyparis lawsoniana erecta Scarab. Blue Lawson 
Cypress. A remarkably clean pyramidal shrub, compact in 
form and clear cut in outline that has many admirable uses. 
It is often planted in lot corners, near walk or street, alone 
or in combination with low junipers. Is valuable, ‘too, to 
frame large windows or to break tall walls. Fine blue-green 
foliage. 8-10 ft. Balled, 1%-2 ft., $2.75; 5-gal. containers, 
$2.75; gal. containers, $1.00. 
DWARF HINOKI CYPRESS 
Chamaecyparis obtusa formosana. We have a pair of these 
dwarf trees in our patio garden and we are genuinely amazed 
at the year round beauty of their broad graceful panicles of 
flat frond-like foliage. Grows slowly and may be confined 
in a very small area. 6-8 ft. 5-gal. containers, $4.50. 
TECATE CYPRESS 
Cupressus forbesi. Borers and fungus have been making 
serious inroads upon the Monterey Cypress hedges in South- 
ern California; the casualties have been many. Instead of re- 
planting with the Monterey we suggest you plant this variety, 
for it has been demonstrated to be much more resistant to 
these troubles than the Monterey. The plants grow rapidly, 
forming a dense attractive hedge or wind break, 20-30 ft. 
5-gal. containers, $2.50; gal. containers, 75c; flats of about 
100 plants, $6.00. 
A ROYAL CYPRESS 
Cupressus sempervirens. Royal Italian Cypress. During 
the past twenty years we have grown many types of Italian 
Cypress but have discarded all with the exception of this 
one variety. The tree grows into a slender graceful column 
and at no time presents the straggly unkempt appearance of 
most varieties of Italian Cypress. Requires no trimming. 
15-20 ft. Balled, 14-16 ft., $25.00; 10-12 ft., $12.50; 8-10 ft., 
$7.50; 7-8 ft., $5.50; 5-gal. containers, $3.00; gal. containers, 
S12 5s 
REEVES JUNIPER 
Juniperus chinensis Reeves. To those of you who need an 
erect conifer but do not have space to give a large tree, such 
as a deodar, we recommend this extraordinary small tree. 
The fresh spring growth is rich bright green when it first 
appears, changing to dark green brushed with silver as it ages. 
A marvelous little tree to decorate out-of-doors at Christmas 
time. 15 ft. 5-gal. contairiers, $3.75. 
PFITZER’S JUNIPER 
Juniperus chinensis Pfitzer. Planted singly or in groups 
at walk or drive intersections these soft foliaged shrubs will 
lend a permanent rich finish through many years. Will 
thrive either in a quite moist location or where water is not 
readily available. Disease resistant and hardy. 3-4 ft. tall, 6 
ft. spread, Balled, 2-2% ft., $3.25; 1%4-2 ft., $2.75; 5-gal: con- 
tainers, $2.50; gal. containers, $1.00.
