SPECIAL NOTICE 



All varieties of Evergreens offered in this catalog are suitable for foundation 

 plantings excepting the Spruces and Pines (exclusive of Pinus mughus). The 

 taller growing varieties attain too great an ultimate height if allowed to grow with- 

 out pruning, but by pruning once or twice each year during the growing season, 

 it is possible to keep trees to any desired height.
