Luanrant and 
Colorful 
EVERGREENS 


Colorado Blue Spruce 
COLORADO BLUE 
SPRUCE 
One of the hardiest and most beau- 
tiful of Evergreens for specimen plant- 
ing. Will stand extreme weather con- 
ditions without damage as it has a very 
deep growing root system. Color is a 
rich blue as the tree ages. Color changes 
toward green in winter. Beautiful in 
outline and ideal for all specimen plant- 
ing. However, it must have room to de- 
velop its branches and form. Well- 
rooted, 12- to 15-inch trees, $1.50 
each; 2 for $2.75. 
CONCOLOR FIR 
Sometimes Called ‘’White Fir’’ 
Compact and symmetrical in growth 
with mature form resembling the Colo- 
rado Blue Spruce. Foliage is rich silvery 
green and borne on stiff branches. Con- 
MUGHO PINE 
Valuable for all low group plantings. Dwarf in 
habit, forming a low dome-shaped mound. Color 
a dark green except in early spring when the 
tender new growth of light green gives it a pretty 
two-color effect. 
8 to 12 in., $1.25 each. 
IRISH JUNIPER 
(Juniper Hibernica) 
One of the most beautiful of the col- 
umnar Junipers. Grows erect and slen- 
der, which makes it ideal for accent 
use. Bright, bluish green foliage, holds 
its color well. Hardy and thrives under 
practically all conditions. 18 to 24 in., 
$1.25 each; 3 for $3.25. 
DOUGLAS FIR 
Beautiful in mature form. Habit of 
growth resembles the Concolor Fir and 
Blue Spruce, but foliage is softer in 
texture, and growth is more rapid. Deep 
green color with distinct bluish cast. 
Excellent for specimens or for back-

JUNIPER HORIZONTALIS 
(Andorra Juniper) 
Very popular with those who want a prostrate 
creeping type for use along steps, for rockery plant- 
ing or for use as a bank cover. Rarely exceed 10 
or 12 inches in height. Richly colored foliage which 
blends well with any other DiciiteUsed ae NVesOllCl a ek cg, roman

ceedingly interesting 
rose. They have had 
two sets of blooms 
which have been ex- 
cellent. It is surely 
an oddity to have a 
thornless rose and 
one with as much 
beauty as the one 
vou have. It would 
appear to me that 
this variety will be 
in great demand.

Gentlemen: 
You furnished 
the writer with two 
of your thornless 
rose bushes. I plant- 
ed these at my home, 
KEY TO ABOVE DRAWING 
1. Two Irish Junipers, 18- to 24-inch. 
2. Two Pfitzer Junipers, 12- to 15-inch. 
3. Two Globe Arbor-Vitaes, 10- to 12-inch. 


Allow plenty of room for plants to grow and 
develop when planting evergreens. Keep from 11/2 
to 3 feet away from foundation, according to type 
and variety. Plant spreading varieties at least 2 or 
3 feet apart. Upright varieties, with spreading 
branches, should have at least 3 to 4 feet in all 
directions for growth. Of course, closely columnar 

sorts such as Juniper Fastigiata and Irish Juniper 
will not need more than 1 2 to 2 feet allowance, 
but all evergreens should have enough room for 
air to circulate freely around them. Most ever- 
green troubles can be traced to overcrowding in 
poor soil with insufficient water.
