D. Evergreens Most Used. The climate of the south Atlanticstates (Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, and Ala-bama) provides an opportunity to use the broad-leaved evergreens ingreat profusion as well as certain sorts of conifers which are not desir-able farther north. All the broad-leaved evergreens mentioned else-where in this book are useful in this region, as well as the coniferousplants named below. All of these plants, however, with the exceptionof the junipers, require at least partial shade (See Chapter XXXIII).The firs, spruces, hemlocks, American arborvitae, and Douglas firshould never be used in this region at elevations below 1,200 feet abovesea level.
