Should be planted not less than fifty feet apart. Cunninghamia sinensis, from China, offers about the same outline as A. Bidwillii, but with branches more drooping, the foliage of distinctly glaucous color. It will stand more cold and more heat, but needs deep soil and plenty of moisture at the roots, otherwise losing its lower branches and looking very unsightly. The finest specimens that I know of are at the Tevis place near Bakersfield, where the range of temperature is pretty wide, but soil... is deep and moist. Plant fifty feet apart. Cedrus deodara, or "Himalayan Cedar, " is well known in gardens, but has never been much used as an avenue tree. I know only of the Santa Rosa avenue in Altadena, which is certainly very striking, but the effect is spoiled by the avenue not being wide enough and by the trees having been set much too close together. It should not be less than forty feet. Cupressus sempervirens, the "Italian" or "Oriental Cypress, " has been, of late much used (and abused) in California gardens.
