Hardy Ornamental Shrubs, Hedge Plants, and Vines 



Hardy Shrubs and Hedge Plants require less care in growing than almost anything 

 else you can plant. They Bring great returns for any investment made in them. A real 

 estate customer wrote us: "We have been using Conard & Jones flowers and shrubbery 

 quite extensively around our houses, and attribute our getting from Sis to S20 a month 

 more from our houses, than other properties, to the flowers, more than anything else."

"He profits most who plants the best," for it requires as much preparation and time to get 

 ready for poor plants as for good ones and the difference in the cost of the plants is trilling.
