Hard to transplant, but nothing more effective and durable when once you get them established. My trees are nursery grown. *JAPAN VARNISH. Imported, introduced and proved successful in this section by us for rvs years. Luxuriant, lobed or fig-like leaves, umbrella-like on their long- stems ; body smooth, green, altogether presenting a striking tropical appearance. PRUNUS Pissardii. (See Plums.) A most beautiful purple-foliaged Plum. WEEPING WILLOW, American. The finest of weeping trees ; well known. gfglf'The Kilmarnock Weeping Willow does not endure our hot suns. LOCUST, Black. Well known ; hardy and persistent ; flowers of refreshing fragrance. gsil^Besides the above, I have many other shade trees, both new and old, in moderate supply. See also Nut Trees. CONIFEROUS EVERGREENS. It is no trouble to get our Evergreens to grow. My plan of moving a small ball of earth with the roots is a great safeguard against damage in transplanting and shipping, and is the most successful way. I will pack them so if desired. If not ordered to ball, I will pack in wet moss. I never allow the roots to be exposed or dried, which is the secret of success. The following are very successful here : ARBORVIT/E, Chinese. Deep green, hardy, vigorous, rapid-growing, fine ; stately for large places, or may be shorn as desired ; fine as specimens, hedges or wind- breaks. Trees in stock. I to 7 feet. Golden. Very compact, symmetrical, globular, conical and pyramidal, as desired ; most beautiful and popular. Those grown from selected seed are most compact
