Tsuga heterophylla (Western Hemlock) 
The Western Hemlock is very similar to Tsuga canadensis. Grows to about 
the same form and height and has the same characteristically graceful branch 
tips. The foliage is slightly heavier with a beautiful luster. It is common 
in the Coast and Cascade ranges of western United States. Hardy. Like 
canadensis it has splendid ornamental values.

Tsuga mertensiana (Mountain Hemlock) 
This magnificent conifer is native of the Cascade mountains of western 
United States and Canada. In its natural habitat it is seldom found below 
an elevation of 3000 feet except in the more northern areas and braves the 
cold to timber line. In the loftier situations it becomes very slender and alpine 
in habit of growth and often verges into a pleasing blue. While native to 
the colder, more rugged areas, it thrives at the lower levels. Lovely either in 
groups or as specimen trees. The hemlocks as a whole are a most beautiful 
group of evergreens but the Mountain Hemlock may be said to be the hand- 
somest of them all and is usually considered to be the West’s most beautiful 
alpine conifer.

Umbellularia californica (Oregon Myrtle) (California Laurel) 
A handsome hardy evergreen tree, 25 to 30 feet in height and reaching 
75 feet. Native of southern Oregon and northern California where it reaches 
its greatest perfection of growth along the streams and valleys of the coast 
range. The tree is conical in form and the leaves are highly aromatic. Well 
adapted to hedges. Sargent has described the Myrtle as “one of the stateliest 
and most beautiful inhabitants of North American forests, and no evergreen 
tree of temperate regions surpasses it in the beauty of its dark dense crown 
of lustrous foliage.”

Vaccinium ovatum (Evergreen Huckleberry) 
First discovered by the Lewis and Clark expedition at the mouth of the 
Columbia river in 1805. One of the great beauties of the plant is the thick, 
waxy leaves, of blended shades of green in spring and summer, and chang- 
ing to a mixture of deep crimson and bronze in fall and winter. Its winter 
and spring colors utterly defy description. It is a rounded plant, many 
branched and of unusual density. Strong, vigorous grower, and stands un- 
limited shearing. Can be sheared into a hedge from 1 to 5 feet tall. Does 
well in either sun or shade, but is at its best in partly shaded exposures. 
A hardy evergreen shrub of surpassing merit and a fine hedge plant. Berries 
small but abundant and of fine flavor.
