Juniperus com. depressa—vase shaped (Vase Shaped Prostrate Juniper) 
An improvement over the old seeding variety, introduced by the D. 
Hill Nursery Company. It has a semi-erect and regular form as shown 
in the picture. The color is grayish green. To a large extent this tree 
overcomes the tendency of the seedling form to develop dead branches 
and it is a notable improvement over the old native species.

Juniperus excelsa stricta (Spiny Greek Juniper) 
“This beautiful variety forms a tall, dense, narrow, conical head tap- 
ering gradually from the ground to a sharp terminal point; and is of 
fine glacous color. It orignated in the nursery of Messrs. Rollenson at 
Tooting, England, and is quite hardy.”—Gordon. 
The mother tree, Juniper excelsa, is a native of Greece and Asia where 
it is an old well-known variety. The growth is slow so that the tree is 
well adapted for foundation plantings, rock gardens, or other situations 
where small or dwarf trees are required.
