TWENTY-THIRD EDITION, t90I. 



THIS CATALOGUE includes the best Trees, Shrubs, Vines, Hardy Plants and 

 choicest Fruits. The index of both botanical and common names, on last page, may- 

 render it convenient for ready reference. 



PLANTING SEASON. — Shipments are made when the stock is in best condition 

 for transplanting, during April and May in spring; October and November in autumn. 

 Most Deciduous Trees and Shrubs succeed well in either season. Evergreens are 

 better moved in spring. 



EARLY ORDERS insure first selection and the most complete assortments without 

 extra cost. 



LOW PRICES. — Large lists or large quantities are furnished complete at whole- 

 sale rates, and prices for all stock of reliable quality are reasonable and as favorable 

 a^fiiose of any responsible house. The express companies allow 20 per cent, off the 

 regular rates for Nursery Stock in boxes, and the freight classification secures the 

 very low rates of the third class. 



PLANTING PLANS.- — The best results usually obtain where competent men are 

 chosen to prepare landscape plans. Capable men for this work are not, as a rule, 

 employed as an adjunct of a Nursery Establishment. The best building architects 

 are not in the employ of lumber merchants or stone contractors. Suggestions as to 

 preliminary planting plans given without charge, and information regarding landscape 

 architects when desired. 



GARDENERS. — The kind of gardener's service on a country place determines in 

 a great measure the degree of pleasure to be derived from its occupancy. A register 

 is kept of available head gardeners and assistant gardeners who have proved efficient 

 and trustworthy. Addresses and particulars given on application. 



THE LIBERAL PATRONAGE extended for the past twenty-five years, including 

 that of many of the largest purchasers in the country, is appreciated, and with 

 increased facilities it is hoped that continued confidence and business may be merited.
