Botanists know these by the generic 
name Chamecyparis. Those commonly 
found in southern gardens are mostly 
varieties of C. pisifera. Their forms and 
shades are many and varied. A number of 
lovely varieties are adapted to southern 
conditions. 
Obtusa crippsi. A dwarf evergreen 
rarely reaching more than 3 feet in 
height. The drooping branchlets are 
frond-like, with curled foliage of a light 
golden yellow.

Obtusa ericoides. This is a beautiful 
conifer, dense and compact in growth. 
An upright grower that may be pruned 
in very narrow, columnar shape. The 
foliage is a dark bluish green. Not 
particular as to soil. 
Ericoides, Barton Stain. Brought to 
our attention by the late J. O. Barton, 
who was our packing-house foreman for 
many years. Of slower and more com- 
pact growth than Ericoides, and softer 
texture.

CENTIPEDE 
GLEN SAINT MARY NURSERIES CO., GLEN SAINT MARY, FLORIDA 
ORNAMENTAL AND LAWN GRASSES 
GRASS (Eremochloa 
ophiuroides). Centipede is one of the 
best lawn and pasture grasses for the 
South. Spreads by surface runners and 
is excellent for sunny lawns, both dry 
and moist soils. Centipede does not 
thrive under alkaline or excessive lime 
conditions and should not be fertilized 
at excessive rates. High fertilization 
causes a heavy mat of grass with roots 
out of the soil and makes it susceptible 
to drought and disease. Close mowing at 
less than 2 inches is recommended. Will 
set about 1200 square feet per bushel 
when set 1 foot apart each way. Each

ST. AUGUSTINE BITTER BLUE 
STEM GRASS (Stenotaphrum). Bitter 
Blue St. Augustine is one of our better 
lawn grasses, if not the best, for certain 
locations. Shaded lawns, coastal lawns 
or those subject to salt sprays, moist to 
wet soils, and those too alkaline for 
Centipede will support good Bitter 
Blue. Responds best to mowing at 
about 2 inches. Too close cutting of 
this grass is harmful. A much-improved 
type, stronger growing, tougher, and 
extremely resistant to chinch-bugs, 
Throughout the year it seems to keep 
its color better than most southern 
grasses, will stand more dry weather, 
and is equally at home in sun or shade. 
One bushel will plant about 900 square 
feet of lawn if the grass is set a foot 
apart each way, or 450 square feet if 
spaced 1 foot by 6 inches. Each
