Cyclopedia of American horticulture, comprising suggestions for cultivation of horticultural plants, descriptions of the species of fruits, vegetables, flowers, and ornamental plants sold in the United States and Canada, together with geographical and biographical sketches. Gardening. BETINISPORA BHAMNUS 1509 winter: tips of branchlets nodding: Ivs. crowded, spreading, very soft, bluish green above, silvery white below. The most ornamental and graceful and the best known of these Juvenile forms. The intermediate form var. plumdsa, Beissn. »&Hochst. {ffetittispora plumosa), has smaller, subulate and subereet Ivs., and is much planted, especially in its golden variegated form. See Fig. 418, Vol. I. Chamaecyparis sphseroidea, var. ericoldes, Beissn. & Hochst. {lietiiiispora ericoldes, Zucc). Fig. 2094. Dense shrub, of stiff, pyramidal oralmost columnar habit, with upright branches and bright green foliage, changing to violet-red or brownish red in winter: Ivs. bright green above, with 2 bluish lines below. This form is very dis- tinct with its stiff, columnar habit, but is less common in cultivation. The intermediate foi-m var. Andelyensis, Carr. {Metin'ispora Jeptdclada, Hort.), shows al^o a stiff, pyramidal habit and bears chiefly small, subereet or almost scale - like Ivs., and occasionally branchlets with spreading linear leaves.

Dense broadly pyramidal or round-headed bush, with upright branches and dull green foliage, changing to brownish green in winter: Ivs. linear, soft grayish green beneath. The intermediate form, var. Ellwan^eri^na, Beissn. {Rttinispora Ellwangerlclna, Hort.}, has usually two kinds of Ivs., but the linear Ivs. are smaller than those of the preceding form.
