Pines Form an Effective Windbreak and Screen 



Our Oft-Transplanted 



EVERGREENS 



Are Sure To Thrive 



COPv many years we have followed a consistent 

 * policy of transplanting our Evergreens at frequent 

 intervals. This periodic pruning of the root systems 

 forces a vigorous, compact growth close to the 

 trunks. These ofVtranspIanted trees readily adapt 

 themselves to new soils. Their growth is scarcely 

 checked by moving. 



No planting, small or large, is complete without Evergreens 

 that give a note of color to winter landscapes, break the 

 force of bitter gales and effectively screen unsightly objects. 

 Rosedale offers a wide range of 77 varieties, in many sizes, 

 from the pigmy Tom Thumb Arborvitae to the stately 

 Douglas Fir. 



"All the trees arrived in perfect condition, and they are certainly splen- 

 did specimens." — Harry Harkness Flagler, Dutchess Co., N. T.
