Taxus cuspidata — Spreading Yew 
Taxus — Yews 
Each year the Yews gain in popularity. This is readily 
understandable because of their hardiness, their adapability 
and their rich and dignified appearance. They withstand our 
variable climate with its extreme cold and extreme heat and 
thrive, whether in shade or in sun. But their rich dark green 
foliage, densely covered by their many branchlets is the out- 
standing characteristic. All of the varieties are dwarf and 
slow growing, mostly of a spreading nature. They are easily 
trimmed and pruned so they are of great value wherever low 
material is needed, whether for foundation plantings, garden 
borders, low hedges or individual accent points. 
Taxus baceata repandens Spreading English Yew 
Hassock shape with slightly arching outer branches. The only

used effectively in plantings around the home. It is especially interest-

Tsuga — Hemlock 
The Hemlock is the most graceful and beloved tree of 
eastern North America. With its low graceful sweeping 
branches covered with flat short needles bending willingly 
with the winds, its charm cannot be surpassed. Winter or 
summer, sunlight or deep shade it grows to maturity a speci- 
men conical shaped tree broad at the base. Survives in shady 
places and prefers a moist rich soil. 
Tsuga canadensis Canada Hemlock 
A broad pyramidal medium sized tree of dense deep green growth, 
particularly graceful at any size. Can be kept low for many years 
with pruning making it especially useful for foundation plantings. 
Because it will thrive as well in the shade as in the sun, its usefulness 
is two fold. Makes excellent screenings giving a charm, grace and 
depth at the rear of the garden or lawn or as a background to a 
planting of Dogwoods or Hawthorns.

PLANTING SUGGESTIONS 
All our Evergreens are shipped with the roots in a ball of earth 
securely wrapped in burlap. It is important not to let this ball of 
earth become dry. When planting be sure to dig a hole big enough 
ty receive ball without breaking or forcing. Remove the burlap before 
filling in with good soil. If the ground is dry, the hole should be 
partly filled with well-trodden earth and then filled with water. When 
the water has soaked in, put in more earth and more water, repeating 
the process until completed. If a slight depression is left about the 
base of the plant, it will help in future watering.
