'yyESTBURY NURSERIES Evergreen Trees 15 EVERGREENS. The selection of Evergreens is usually attended with some difficulty and confusion. To obviate this, we have endeavored to state the cliaracter and limitations of the best varieties. We are testing all the hardy species that can be procured, and if our customers desire any that are not catalogued, we can probably supply them. Our large Evergreens have been root-pruned, which renders transplanting much more sure to be successful. Prices, 30 cts. to $1. Specimens and rare varieties priced on selection. EVERGREEN TREES, ARBORVIT^ (Thuya). The varieties of Arbor- vitre differ greatly in form, but all are hardy trees, which transplant readily. For jumping-hurdles they are the best Evergreens, the tops being soft and flexible. American. This rapid-growing variety is excellent for screens and garden hedges. Low rates in quantity. Large specimens furnished. Siberian. The Siberian is the best kind for hedges, where height is not the first consid- eration. The foliage is compact, re- quiring little clipping, and the color is dark green all the year. We furnish this variety for winter dec o ration and tubs. Booth's. A globular, slow-growing form, suita- ble for ceme- tery hedges. We do not recommendit forlawnspec- imens, as the grass grow- ingupamong the branches kills the lower foliage and mars its symmetry. Pyramidal. Among Ever- greens this variety holds the same place as the Lom- bardy Poplar among decid- uous trees. It is a narrow columnar tree, hardy and vigorous, and should be used to group with evergreens of lower form. Golden (Peabody's). Color effect a clear, shining golden yellow. Superior to other golden varieties of the American Arborvit£E. Rollinson'
