A COMPLETE CATALOGUE 
N THE following pages of this booklet there is given a complete 
catalogue of the Trees, Shrubs, and Perennials usually planted in 
the different parts of the United States, listed under their normal 
size at maturity, and by a system of key letters their habits, uses, 
hardiness, and general qualities are given within a very small space. 
There is no nursery catalogue known which iists so many varieties, 
because the catalogue is the sales agent of the nurseryman, and he cannot 
afford to catalogue anything that is not hardy, or in demand, in his ter- 
ritory, and it is no discredit to the nurseryman but a safeguard to his cus- 
tomers that should always be taken into consideration in making your 
planting list. 
If you will study this catalogue in connection with the key letters, 
which are the most important part of it, as the other description is to be 
found in any catalogue, you have at your command a practical encyclo- 
pedia of the uses to which the Ornamental Trees and Shrubs of America 
can best be put.
