Among the Specialties for which these Nurseries are celebrated we may name 



OSAGE ORANGE. 



It is particularly important to have a good hedge that the plants be strong and fairly uniform in size. Our lowest quality 

 plants weigh about SO lbs. to the 100, yet we sell them at rates little beyond what are ottered at half this weight. Kates very liberal 

 for large lots. 



RARE AND POPULAR EVERGREENS. 



These root so well in our soil that it is one of the recommendations of our establishment that the plants rarely die on 

 transplanting, thus saving money and time. Trees from our Nursei'ies, tifteen and twenty feet high, are often transplanted with 

 perfect safety, and grow as well as younyer ones. t.mh.2
