THUJA .~ Arborvitae 
AMERICAN ARBORVITZ. Thuja occi- 
dentalis. A native evergreen which can 
be transplanted readily, will thrive under 
adverse conditions, and may be used for 
specimen planting or in hedges. In general 
habit it is conical, growing to a height of 
about 20 feet. It may, however, be clipped 
to the height of a standard hedge. The 
foliage is deep green. 
GLOBE ARBORVITA. T. occidentalis 
globosa. A globe-shaped form especially 
useful in border plantings and as a specimen 
at curves in walk or road. The foliage in 
color and form is similar to the upright 
type. 
AMERICAN PYRAMIDAL ARBORVITE. 
T. occidentalis pyramidalis. Naturally 
pyramidal in habit of growth and retains 
the form without shearing. For corner 
groups, plantings in front of pillars, or the 
background of group plantings, it is one of 
the most valuable evergreens. 
CHINESE ARBORVIT. T. orientalis. 
Introduced from the Orient and is of more 
open habit than the American forms. 
Foliage is light green. The tree eventually 
grows to about 20 feet, but may be kept 
to any height by clipping. 
BERCKMAN’S GOLDEN ARBORVIT-. 
T. orientalis aurea nana. A _ beautiful 
evergreen having golden tipped foliage, 
with the rest of the leaf a soft green. It can 
be used as a specimen in tubs or large pots 
and can be sheared readily to any desired 
shape. Can also be used in any general 
planting where its compact, bushy habit 
and distinctive coloring are desirable. 
Ultimate height is 4 to 6 feet. Illustrated 
in color on page 4. 


THUJA, continued 
GOLDSPIRE ARBORVIT2. T. orientalis 
aurea conspicua. A rapidly growing form 
similar to Berckman’s Golden Arborvite 
in coloring, but more pyramidal in shape 
and with quite light green foliage. 
BAKER’S PYRAMIDAL ARBORVITA. 
T. orientalis bakeri. This relatively new 
introduction has clean, bright green foliage 
that makes it especially valuable in any 
planting where a pyramidal form is desired. 
COMPACT ARBORVIT. T. orientalis 
compacta. A small, globe-headed form 
with rich green foliage; ultimate height 
2 to 3 feet. 
“It’s not a Home until it’s Planted’’ is good, 
hard, common sense. Trees, shrubs, and flower- 
ing plants add to the actual value of the property 
as well as make it more comfortable and at- 
tractive to the family. You will find some plant- 
ing helps on pages 30 and 31, or you may write 
us for definite suggestions.
