Besides the small trees and shrubs common to most nurseries, 

 attention is given, by frequent transplanting, to always keep on 

 hand numbers of 



LARGE TREES THAT WILL GROW, 



so that those having the means may not have to wait a life time to 

 enjoy a beautiful garden landscape. It will always pay those in- 

 tending to plant to visit a large nursery like ours while the foliage 

 is on the trees.
