the base and retaining its shape without shear-

HEMLOCK — TSUGA 
. . This grand tree has more uses than any 
Evergreen we sell. Will tolerate both sun and 
shade, good color winter and summer, and is 
graceful. We have one of the finest stocks in 
this area. When in doubt plant a Hemlock. 
FOUNDATION PLANTING 
Few trees are better adapted to foundation plant- 
ing than the Hemlock. Can be shaped into 
columnar, pyramidal or globular forms. 
HEDGE 
While a great many plants have been used from 
time to time in making hedges, there is none 
for all-round purposes which is superior to the 
Hemlock. Should be planted 3 feet apart or 
more, depending on size. 
SCREEN 
If given good soil and ample moisture, a screen of 
Hemlock will soon delight the most fastidious. 
SPECIMEN 
As a specimen, many consider Hemlock our hand- 
somest Evergreen. Small or large they are 
beautiful the pendulous twigs drooping from 
the rather horizontal branches give a form 
which is dignified yet graceful. 
CANADIAN HEMLOCK (Tsuga Canadensis). We 
consider the Hemlock one of the best of all 
evergreens. Grows rapidly. Can be pruned often 
and severely. While the Hemlock prefers a good 
rich soil, with moisture, it will grow almost any- 
where. Its sweeping branches are graceful and 
when sheared becomes rather compact. Always 
retains its rich green color, summer or winter.
