California and is worthy of wide dissemina- tion. Branches spreading, usually clustered at top of tree. Radiata (Monterey Pine) (P. Insignis.) Cal- ifornia. 100 feet. Leaves slender and dark green. Well adapted to coast regions. RUBBER TREE (Ficus Elastica.) Asia. 100 feet. Popular for indoor decoration; leaves large, dark, glossy green above, yellow be- neath. Has a habit of staying bright and at- tractive even when neglected; is hardly prac- ticable out-doors except in our southern coast counties. Macrophylla (Moreton Bay Fig.) Australia. 100 feet. Hardier that F. Elastica Variegata, with somewhat smaller leaves; valuable for indoor and outdoor planting. Variegated (F. Elastica Variegata.) Simi- lar to Ficus Elastica except that the leaves are creamy white or yellow near the edges. SILK OAK (Grevillea Robusta.) Australia. 100 feet. Very graceful, fern-like leaves; of rapid growth; covered with bronze-yellow flowers in early summer. Resists drought; stately for avenue and lawn. SPRUCES (Picea.) In habit of growth the spruces are very similar to the firs, but the branches stand out from the main stem more horizontally and not so closely together. Dis- tinguished from the firs mainly by their droop- ing cones and linear, flat leaves on the upper side of the branches; the firs have their needles short and scattered all around the branches. Alba (White Spruce.) N. America. 70 feet. Foliage silvery gray; strong aromatic odor when bruised. Excelsa (Norway Spruce.) Europe. 150 feet. A lofty, rapid grower; blanches of graceful, drooping habit; very hardy. Polita (Tiger Taif Spruce.) 90 feet. A distinct Japanese species. It is of erect habit, and has sharply pointed, very rigid, bright green leaves, contrasting beauti- fully with the yellow branches. Excellent specimen tree for a lawn. SPRUCE
