Picea excelsa pendula (Weeping Norway Spruce} 
One of the most interesting of conifers. One never can tell just what these ever- 
greens will do. They may head in one direction creeping on the ground, grow up 
2 or 3 feet then suddenly back to the ground or occasionally 10 to 12 feet high, 
then form many long filamentous branches. In any shape they are always fascinat- 
ing. For hanging near waterfalls, over large rocks, or ledges there is nothing 
which can compare with them for giving a rugged, alpine and picturesque ef- 
fect. Foliage heavy, dark green. Hardy and rare.

Picea excelsa sherwoodi (Sherwood's Multnomah Spruce} 
A spruce that is new and entirely different. It may be described as being com- 
pact but of irregular, flattened, globe like habit of growth. The parent tree which 
is 25 to 30 years of age is 4 feet tall and 8 feet across. It is at its best with little 
or no pruning. The outstanding individuality of this hardy spruce makes it ad- 
mirably fitted for naturalistic and picturesque plantings. The irregular outline 
gives it a rugged appearance. Few trees in our nursery attract more attention 
than the thick growing parent tree.

Picea orientalis (Oriental Spruce) 
Resembles Norway Spruce but is much more slender and graceful, in fact a tree 
of outstandingly neat and tidy appearance. Clad well to the ground with branches 
and foliage. Fits into plantings where space is a factor. The general effect of 
mature trees is one of perfection. Native of Western Asia and the Caucasus.

ditions.

Picea sitchensis (Sitka Spruce) 
Handsome ornamental conifer with slender, wide spreading, horizontal branches 
thickly clothed with green and silvery foliage. This contrast between two colors 
of foliage combined with dense shapely form makes a splendid landscape subject.
