Uses* for 
MIDGET REDWOODS 
We do NOT know enough yet about these 
Midget Redwoods to GUARANTEE their 
behavior. They promise many advantages. 
1. They seem MORE HARDY than the 
Coast Redwood--to drouth, heat, wind, 
cold and poor soil. We rate them for 
ZONE 6--with care when young, perhaps 
ZONE 5. 
2. Probably about 35 feet maximum height, 
they should be ideal for small lots. 
3. They are excellent tub trees here--- 
growing very slowly. For cold climates, 
the tub could be moved indoors in the 
coldest weather --~-- a beautiful LIVING 
Christmas Tree, usable many years! 
4. For DWARFING, they should survive 
dry indoor air, be EASY to keep dwarfed. 
5. ANY of the five Midgets may be grown 
in either tree or shrub form. They may be 
planted and pruned as a hedge, probably 
NOT growing to over 5 or 6 ft.in 50 years. 
Less root-spread than many hedge shrubs. 
Uses for 
HYBRID REDWOODS 
On residential lots, the five hybrids should 
be better than the BIG Redwoeds, as they 
will NOT grow so large. They resemble 
the five types of Midgets, but are larger 
in every way. You can have 2 or 3 differ- 
ent HYBRIDS in the same space that ONE 
big Redwood would require.
