The figures 2-0, 2-1, 2-2-1 indicate the number of years the trees 
have been in the seedbeds and the transplant beds. The first figure in- 
dicates the number of years in the seedbed. A dash followed by a figure 
indicates a transplanting. The second figure is the number of years in the 
first transplant bed, the third figure the number of years in the second 
transplant bed. Thus the sum of all figures is the total age of the tree. 
For instance, (2-2) indicates a tree that was transplanted when it was a 
seedling, and has grown two years in a transplant bed.

color from slightly blue-green 
to marvelous blue. It thrives 
in moist rich soil and prefers 
sunlight. Growth is slow.

well rotted cow manure into 
the surface of the soil around
