DOUGLAS FIR 
E1IO—AMERICAN ARBOR-VITAE. White Cedar. (Thuya occidentalis) 
A great favorite for lawn groups, 
hedges and foundation settings. The flat, beautifully carved foliage covers the 
tree like a mantle. Untrimmed it grows into a graceful broad pyramid, 35 to 50 
feet tall, but shears readily to any desired height or shape. Well used as back- 
grounds, in landscape groups, trimmed hedges, or as single lawn specimens. 
It develops the densest of all windbreaks and screens. It requires lots of mois- 
ture. Plant 2 feet apart for sheared hedge. (We offer a special hedging size on 
page 23.)

EI5—DOUGLAS FIR. (Pseudotsuga Douglasi). Superb Windbreak Ever- 
green—and Favorite Ornamental! A tree of superla- 
tive qualities—supremely hardy and healthy, entirely immune from red spider, 
drought resisting, and then handsome as well. It grows quickly and compactly, 
with graceful branches thickly cloaked in deep green lustrous foliage. An ideah 
tree to use in group plantings where space is limited, as it develops a lofty, 
graceful pyramid, becoming more beautiful with each year’s growth. For wind- 
breaks, its popularity has grown by leaps and bounds, and it is also an ideal 
evergreen for backgrounds and lawn groups. You will never be disappointed 
in Ferris’ Douglas Fir. 
We grow our Douglas Fir from northern Colorado seed of the very finest, hardi- 
est strain, developing a more compact, symmetrical tree than the southern type. 
60 to 80 feet at maturity. (Don’t overlook the small sizes and special windbreak 
grades on page 239).

E19—COLORADO SILVER CEDAR, ‘Juniperus scopulorum). The Lovely 
Silver-Green Cedar from the Rocky 
Mountains. It naturally develops a bushy pyramid, with soft feathery foliage, 
seldom growing more than 20 feet tall. Quick growing and hardy, it makes a 
fine screen or background, or is used to good advantage along a driveway. 
Some clipping each year will induce more formal character and smaller pro- 
portions, and it is then very desirable for entrance and foundation groups.
