Hardy Shrubs and Dwarf Trees 23 



AN Attractive Foundation Planting of Snowhill Hydrangeas 



Hardy Shrubs and Dwarf Trees 



The backbone of any planting. All of our shrubs are carefully grown, in wide rows, so that they can 

 develop into sturdy and bushy plants. All are carefully graded and cannot help giving our patrons the 

 utmost of satisfaction. 



The prices quoted are for well developed, stocky plants. A dozen of any variety will be supplied for 

 ten times the price of one (six for five times the price of one), but this dozen rate may be used only when 

 six or more of one variety are taken. The hundred rate of any variety will be promptly sent if desired . 



We solicit an opportunity to give special quotations upon lists o£ Shrubs and Ornamental 

 Trees for landscape planting. Shipment should be made by express or freight; not by parcel post.
