DWARF CONIFERS 
These delightful little trees make excellent accent points for the 
rockery, and provide a variety in texture, as well as giving interest- 
ing winter color. They are small, slow growing varieties which will 
not become too large and have to be replaced after a year or SO. 
Many of the varieties listed below are rare sorts which we have 
imported. We are definitely short on small sizes, in many varieties.
