thuya

There are but slight differences in these groups, and they will in this work be placed together under Thuya.

Arborvits (Thuya) have very small overlapping leaves that form flat rods or fan-like sprays.

Thyoides is from Thuya meaning arborvit and eidos, the Greek for "resemblance."

Some of the green or glaucous varieties of both Cupressus and Thuya will come fairly true from seed, from 40 per cent.

All the species and beautiful varieties of Cupressus, Thuya, and Juniperus are very valuable in a young state.
