 Evergreens 



any way you

e! 



THEIR adaptability to unfavorable con- 

 ditions of soil and climate is simply 

 marvelous! Their long life is proverb- 

 ial. Their year-around usefulness un- 

 equalled by any other trees. Free from 

 insect pests, always putting life into the 

 landscape by furnishing contrasts. Ever- 

 greens are truly the one bes t class of trees 

 for planting around the home. 



AH Permanent Advantages 



Time only emphasizes all the good points 

 of Evergreens. As they grow larger, they 

 serve their purpose better. An unsightly 

 Evergreen is an almost unknown quantity. 

 They require less attention than any other 

 group of plants or trees, really thrive best if 

 left alone. 



Types for Every Purpose 



No matter what particular style of gar- 

 dening you favor most, there are Evergreens 

 to do it with. The collections in our F. & F. 

 Nurseries in New Jersey, and Bloodgood 

 Nurseries on Long Island, include every 

 important kind in the dwarf, half tall, and 

 tall classes.
