FRUIT TREES 
Growing and improving fruit trees for thirty-eight years and 
through the care-and attention given them our name is known 
to buyers, large and small, over the greater part of the country. 
We annually bud from two to four million peach trees, and - 
peat one million to four million apple seedlings, to be budded 
ater on. 
We maintain a commercial orchard at Berlin, containing 
about sixty thousand peach trees and forty thousand apple trees 
and also other fruits for commercial and experimental purposes 
and with other large orchards in Maryland, Delaware, Vir- 
ginia and West Virginia it enables us to test our trees out 
in various soils and climatic conditions so as to grow the best 
Nursery Stock. These orchards are also used in conjunction 
with our orchards at Berlin, for selecting superior buds. 
Our trees are grown in a favorable climate, where trees 
grow well and fully mature, and which will transplant to any 
corner of the earth where fruit can be grown. ‘Through our 
experience we can furnish our customers with the kind of 
information which will enable them to plan a_ successful 
orchard or plant shade trees, evergreens and shrubbery to 
beautify their home. Every precaution is taken to see that all 
Nursery Stock sold by us is true to name and healthy. 
In order to continue our policy to grow the best trees for 
commercial planters, we have transferred our planting of seed 
and seedlings to the water front on the Synepuxent Bay, in 
full view of the Ocean where the young trees get the benefit 
of the heavy morning dews, the rich fertile soil and the late 
frosts, all of which allows them to develop and ripen to their 
fullest perfection. 
Being orchardists ourselves and keeping up with the best 
and most profitable varieties which are tested out in our fruit- 
ing orchards in four states, gives us an advantage over most 
Nurseries. 
From our commercial orchards we ‘pick and ship two hundred 
to four hundred cars of peaches annually, and from one hundred 
and fifty to three hundred cars of apples. 
SHADE TREES, EVERGREENS, FLOWERING 
SHRUBS, ETC. 
We do not mean by emphasizing fruit trees that we do not 
grow shade trees, evergreens, flowering shrubs, etc. In fact we 
specialize on these the same as fruit trees, having a large 
acreage, and the same care as given the fruit trees is given the 
shade trees, evergreens, flowering shrubs, ete. 
SHADE TREES 
We have a large variety of shade trees which are carefully 
selected for what is most needed to set a home off and give the 
proper shade. Among the varieties we grow are Norway 
Maples, Pin Oaks, Oriental Plane, Purple Beech and other va- 
rieties which will be found in our catalogue. 
EVERGREENS 
You will find in our catalogue the various specimens of Ever- 
greens which we grow for home planting, such as Red Cedar, 
Canadian Hemlock, Retinisporas, Koster Blue Spruce, Norway 
Spruce and others. 
FLOWERING SHRUBS 
California Privet, Barberry and Broad Leaved Evergreens 
and other varieties we carry a large variety of, one-third of 
our output is usually in car load lots.
