JUNIPER EXCELSA STRICTA 
(Spiny Greek Juniper) 
For a  semi-dwarf pyramidal Evergreen, 
Juniper. Stricta cannot be surpassed. Foliage 
is a silvery blue, very compact and cedar- 
like. Reaches about 4 feet at maturity in 
our section of the country. Will get slightly 
larger in the South and not quite as large 
in northern sections. Excellent to use where 
height is a factor in planning a_ planting. 
We offer nice plants in 12- to 15-inch size 
at $1.50 each; 2 for $2.75. 
GOLDEN ORIENTAL ARBOR-VITAE 
(Biota Aurea Nana) 
(Biota Aurea Nana) 
A very slow growing, compact variety of the dwarf type. 
The flattened leaves face outward edgewise, presenting a beau- 
tiful surface of vertical fluted lines. Color is a fresh yellow- 
green, very striking in appearance and valuable in foreground 
planting. 12 to 15 inch size, $1.50 each; 3 for $4.00. 
YEWS 
Without doubt the Yews are among the finest and most 
luxuriant evergreens grown. They are extremely hardy, easy 
to grow, do well in’ shade and harmonize with. any other 
plant. : 
SPREADING YEW 
The spreading variety throws out sweeping branches simi- 
lar to Pfitzer Juniper. May be kept trimmed back to desired 
size or to fit allotted space. Foliage is a shade of deep green, 
soft to the touch and always fresh looking. May be kept 
sheared for a low hedge, allowed to grow its graceful wand- 
like branches for informal corner plantings or trimmed into . 
compact shape for formal effects. After the plant is severai 
years old numerous red berries are borne close to the branches, 
remaining into the winter. Well rooted, 12 to 15 inch., $2.25 
each; 2 or $4.00. 
UPRIGHT YEW 
General foliage characteristics same as the spreading vari- 
ety described above, but grows in columnar, erect form. By 
keeping the plant lightly sheared as it grows, the foliage 
will be extremely dense and compact from the ground up. 
Valuable for corner plantngs and accent pieces, Does well 
in shade and seems to be very little affected by disease or 
Pests. 15 to 18 inches, $2.25 earh; 2 for $4.00. 
HEMLOCK 
Another splendid evergreen which does well in partially shad- 
ed spots is the Hemlock. It is one of tre most graceful grow- 
ing of plants. Foliage is a light fresh green which always 
looks well in any planting. Will grow to quite large size if 
left untrimmed; however, the plants should be kept lightly 
sheared as they develop, thus they will become much more 
beoutiful and foliage will be dense and compact. When the 
desired height is reached the trees may be kept there by trim- 
ming back each year. We have a nice block of theme in 
12 to 18 inch size at $2.00 each; 2 for $3.75. ; 

Allow plenty of room for plants to grow and 
develop when planting evergreens. Keep from 112 
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 12 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.
