Evergreen Seedlings 



Rayner's pines and spruces are excellent for Christmas tree plantings. Seedlings that cost only a few 

 pennies now will soon be worth dollars. Make poor land or hillsides produce a real profit. Ideal for 

 erosion control, windbreaks, and hedges. For ornamental use plant in a nursery bed and soon you will 

 have ideal specimen trees for your own use and for sale. 



SCOTCH PINE 



This is one of the best trees for Christmas plant- 

 ings since it grows very fast and will reach saleable 

 size in five years. Grows well in dry or moist soil 

 and makes a nicely shaped tree with very little 

 shearing. Our special French strain Scotch pines 

 have a very nice blue-green color which holds well 

 in coldest weather. Excellent for ornamental use. 



AUSTRIAN 



Another popular tree for 



PINE 



Christmas plantings 

 or ornamental use. Will grow well in nearly any 

 soil from sand to clay and will tolerate industrial 

 smoke and fumes that kill other pines. Needles 

 are dark green and quite stiff. Develops into nice 

 i bushy saleable tree in about seven years. 



DOUGLAS FIR 



This has long been a favorite tree for Christmas 

 plantings since it has a naturally compact type of 

 growth. With relatively little shearing it will 

 produce high-grade trees. Needles of Douglas fir 

 are short and have a blue-green color. Best results 

 are obtained in soils that are not too heavy or 

 poorly drained. Our trees are of the special San 

 Isabel, Colorado, strain that is the best of all 

 Douglas fir. 



WHITE PINE 



One of the most beautiful of all trees with soft, 

 slender needles having a fine light green color. 

 White pines grow well in nearly any soil type and 

 will give good results in poorly drained land where 

 most other pines will not grow. For Christmas 

 trees shearing is necessary, but in six years an ex- 

 cellent compact tree can be produced. 



NORWAY SPRUCE 



Norway spruce has long been a favorite specimen 

 tree in northern gardens where its stately beauty 

 cannot be excelled. But as a Christmas tree it is 

 also outstanding since with reasonable shearing it 

 will produce fine compact trees with a nice py- 

 ramidal shape. Prefers moist soils rather than dry 

 land and will make a nice tree in about eight years. 



COLORADO BLUE SPRUCE 



A truly magnificent tree with an outstandingly 

 different blue-green color. In contrast with other 

 evergreens this blue spruce is most unusual and 

 thus is highly prized for its ornamental value. This 

 beautiful color likewise makes it a very desirable 

 tree for Christmas use, bringing top prices. Gives 

 good results in moist, fertile soil and requires 

 relatively little shearing. 



CANADIAN HEMLOCK 



For graceful beauty the hemlock cannot be excelled. It produces short, dark green needles which give 

 its long drooping boughs an almost feathery appearance. Only on large parks and estates should it be 

 allowed to develop into its full magnificent size. But in restricted areas Canadian hemlock can be easily 

 pruned to form a fine hedge, an excellent background or sheared specimen trees. Hemlocks are very 

 easy to grow and do well in sun or shade.
