Excerpt from Kelsey's Hardy American Plants and Carolina Mountain Flowers: Highlands Nursery, Nearly 4, 000 Feet Elevation; Fall and Spring 1902-1903 This grand new Hemlock, introduced by us, possesses a distinct pyramidal growth, and attains a height of 40 to 50 feet. Its dense, dark foliage and graceful habit are only ap proached by some of the finer Japanese Hemlocks, which it somewhat resembles. Some fine specimens are now to be seen in the Arnold Arboretum, being the first plants of this Hemlock ever sent out, and supplied by us to Prof. C. S. Sargent, Director, in 1884.
