A correspondent of the Garten Zietung communicates some particulars of a specimen of this singular and distinct conifer that is growing in the garden of Max Daniel Wolterbeek, Valkenburg, near Arnheim, in Holland. It was planted where it now stands, in a very exposed situation, twenty years ago, and is a healthy and beautifully formed tree. Moreover, it has never suffered in the least from frost or other climatal influences. Of pyramidal shape, it is nearly 13 feet high, with a circumference of a little over 21 feet. Last year - or rather the year before last now - it bore for the first time two ripe cones, and the seed produced fifteen seedlings. Last summer it bore only one ripe cone. Many other handsome conifers exist in the select collection at Valkenburg. The soil is sand and peat.
