Shrubs 



Shrubs are the backbone of an}' landscape, combining beauty with usefulness to the ultimate degree. 

 No home is complete without their flowery charm in Spring, Summer and Fall, or, in the case of evergreen 

 shrubs, throughout the entire year. From the last days of Winter, when the Forsythias herald the coming 

 of Spring on their golden bugles, to the end of Fall, when the final Hydrangea turns to its Autumnal shade 

 of bronze, Lovett's beautiful shrubs will delight you, your family and your friends, in their glorious bloom. 

 So do not hesitate, but place your order with us now for some of these wonderful bushes, for our prices 

 are lower, and our shrubs better and more varied, than they have ever been before. 



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 oj 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 of Shrubs and Ornamental Trees for landscape plantings. 

 Shipment can be made by express or freight only; not by parcel post.
