Savin Juniper (Juniperus sabina). Heavy branching gives it 
compactness, and the spreading habit of growth makes it vase- 
like in outline. It is usually about as tall as it is broad, some- 
times reaching a height and diameter of 4 feet. It is widely used 
in foundation plantings. 
Silver Juniper (Juniperus scopulorum). This Juniper has 
the form of the Red Cedar, but it-does not grow as large, and 
has attractive silvery foliage. It is.the parent of such beautiful 
grafted Junipers as the Chandler Blue Juniper, Moffet Juniper, 
Pathflnder Juniper and Welch Juniper. 
Welch Juniper (Juniperus scopulorum, Welch). This very 
handsome Juniper is one of the more recent grafts of the Silver 
Juniper. Its most attractive quality is the compact, narrow, up- 
right habit of growth. The vertical position taken by the new 
growth emphasizes the upright form. It has a deeper blue-green 
color and a more compact growth than other grafted Silver 
Junipers. It has proven to be very hardy. 
HOW TO PLANT EVERGREENS 
1. Dig a hole a foot wider and deeper than the ball of 
earth. Fill under and around ball with fertile top 
soil. 
2. Set trees in hole slightly lower than it stood in the 
nursery. 
Do not remove the burlap. 
4. Fill top soil around the ball and pack firmly or settle 
by filling hole with water. 
5. Fill hole with soil, pack firmly and leave top of 
ground covered with loose earth, or better, mulch 
with strawy, well rotted manure. 
PINE 
Austrian Pine (Pinus nigra). The Austrian Pine is generally 
accepted as the best large Pine for use in landscape plantings. 
It sometimes reaches a height of about 60 feet and a diameter 
of 40 to 50 feet. It is fast growing and adapts itself to a wide 
variety of conditions. 
Mugho Pine (Pinus mugho mughus). Here is a low growing 
dwarf Pine. It is compact and round in shape. Although it 
sometimes reaches a height of 10 feet and a spread of 15 feet, 
the size can be controlled by trimming. The foliage is deep 
green. It is hardy and will tolerate some shade. 
White Pine (Pinus strobus). Fine texture of foliage and 
gracefulness in branching are distinctive qualities of the “Mon- 
arch of the Forests’. The slender, blue-green needles are borne 
in clusters of five. The habit of growth is vigorous and rapid, 
and it will grow under various soil conditions. 
Shipment

SPRUCE 
Black Hills Spruce (Picea glauca den- 
sata). A robust appearance is characteristic 
of this handsome Spruce. It is symmetrical, 
compact and bushy in habit. It is very 
hardy and is highly resistant to drouth. It 
will do well on a wide variety of soils. A 
bluish tinge may be seen in the deep green 
of the foliage, and occasionally it takes on 
a blue approaching that of the Colorado 
Blue Spruce. It may reach a height of 40 
to 50 feet, averaging about one foot a year 
in new growth. See color photograph, 
page 16. 
Colorado Blue Spruce (Picea pun- 
gens). This is probably the most popular 
ornamental Spruce. It has a symmetrical, 
conical outline. It is hardy and drouth re- 
sistant. It grows well in a wide variety of 
conditions from dry, sandy to rich, moist 
situations. The color ranges from green 
to powdery blue. Not all of the trees have 
the striking blue sheen. The greens and 
the blues are separated in the price list. 
The trees may reach a height of 40 feet 
and a spread of 20 to 25 feet.
