. Green's Nursery Co. : spring 1897. Nursery stock New York (State) Rochester Catalogs; Fruit trees Seedlings Catalogs. Norway Spruce. The Leading, the Best Ever green. Norway Spruce This is the most desirable evergreen for all purposes, and it is the most popular. It is extremely hardy. It is desirable for specimens on the lawn, in the front yard, the back yard, or anywhere where an evergreen is desired. It is of rapid growth and pyramidal form. When the tree reaches a height of 15 or 20 feet the branch- es assume a graceful, drooping habit which is particularly pleasing. This splendid evergreen is not injured by heavy falls of snow, as the branches bend with the weight and present a beautiful sight. It is also the best evergreen for hedg- ing, more satisfactory in every way than any other hedge plant. An orchard' or fruit garden en- closed with an evergreen hedge made of Norway Spruce -will in cold States yield double the crop of sound fruit than if left to the bleak and cutting blasts of winter. Nor- way Spruce can be allowed to grow to any desired height, or can be kept trimmed down low. There are evi- dently many who do not realize the value of' this grand evergreen for ornamental and practical pur- poses.
