J The Florists' Review 



A Money Making 

 Proposition for 

 Progressive Florists 



One of the many uses of Hill's Hardy Evergreens 



A very Kood substitute for Box 

 trees would be small EverRreens, 

 which our American nurserymen 

 are already preparing for this pur- 

 pose. Winter boxes filled with 

 nice Evergreens, dwarf Ever- 

 greens, which, to my mind, are 

 even prettier because more di- 

 versified than the Box trees, would 

 prove very attractive.

HILL'S HARDY EVERBREENS FOR WINDOW BOXES AND TUBBINB 



With the growing scarcity of imported decorative material, Hardy Evergreens easily rank first in the list of plants for outside Fall 

 and Winter decoration. Realizing florists' needs, we have spared no effort to i)rapare a sufficient supply for all requirements. The 

 demand exceeds that of all previous years. If you want some you should place your order now for immediate or later delivery. 



SUGGESTIONS FOR PUNTING EVERGREEN WINDOW BOXES 



Evergreens planted close together, all the same height, 



give a hedge-like appearance. 

 High at the ends and low in the center produces, with a 



little clipping, a graceful curved effect. 

 Tall pyramidal plants at the ends, with a lower compact 



line straight across, presents a good appearance. 

 Each tree planted so as to show its individuality is 



another plan. 

 A box filled with assorted gives a shaded color effect 



that is very attractive.
