J. T. LOVETT, LITTLE SILVER, N. J.— EVERGREEN TREES 



SELECT EVERGREEN TREES 



Either as single specimens or in groups, evergreen trees give a warmth in winter and cool- 

 ness in summer to the home grounds that can be obtained in no other way. By a judicious 

 selection and arrangement of the varied forms of growth and colors of foliage (light and 

 dark greens, yellows and blues) effects can readily be produced that are artistic, striking, and 

 permanent. 



In digging, the trees are "lifted" with a ball of earth at the roots; and the roots with 

 earth encased in burlap. They are all too large and heavy for shipment by mail. 



The prices are for bushy, well-furnished trees, in sizes that can be readily shipped. Quo- 

 tations for larger sizes and for varieties other than those named will be cheerfully given. Our 

 evergreen trees are dense, full and shapely.
