THIS LIST gives a fev/ of my specialties and leading varieties adapted 

 for Parks, Private Estates and other ornamental grounds. 



More complete lists, descriptions, etc., will be found in Catalogue No. 40 

 for 1898. 



AUTUMN PLANTING. — Fall planting is often preferable to spring planting. 



There is more time to do the work properly. The roots get firmly estab- 

 lished during the winter. The tree or shrub is then in condition for 

 immediate growth on the opening of spring. Nearly all deciduous trees 

 and shrubs can be advantageously shipped and transplanted in autumn: also. 

 Roses in the open ground, when slightly protected. 



LOW PRICES. — Special low prices are given in Surplus List on second page, 

 and throughout the list for stock per hundred and thousand or in car lots. 



Fine hardy planting material of all kinds — Trees, Shrubs, Roses, 

 Vines, Herbaceous Plants, 9.nd the best Fruits and Small Fruits were 

 never before in greater supply or of better quality, or so lovr in price. 



PARTICULAR ATTENTION is given to furnishing large lists and large 

 quantities in one order complete and on lowest terms. Early orders secure 

 first selections, complete assortments and best prices. 



PLANTING PLANS. — I am always glad to confer or advise regarding planting 

 plans, and the landscape treatment desired. 



Nothing in the improvement of ornamental grounds is more important 

 than correct plans for securing appropriate effects at reasonable cost. 



GARDENERS' POSITIONS. — I have always on my books a hst of competent 

 managers, head gardeners and assistant gardeners, such as can be recom- 

 mended as reliable and trustworthy, for filling these positions satisfactorily.
