Landscape Treatments 



HOULD your planting proposition be of 

 a size involving the laying out of drives 

 and walks, the grading and draining of 

 land or the erection of garden architecture, in 

 addition to the planting of trees and shrubbery, 

 you then need the services of a professional 

 landscape architect. 



We are fortunate in knowing many such and 

 shall be only too glad to give you the names 

 and addresses of those who seem to us best 

 able to handle your particular problem. In 

 either event, you will, when planting time 

 comes, need "Moons' Nursery Stock." 



Catalog Descriptions 



p^^N your way home from this little sojourn 

 IBj in our nursery, when turning over the 

 ^ leaves of our catalog and reading the 

 descriptions, you will be impressed with the 

 effort made to convey by word pictures a 

 definite idea of each plant's appearance, its 

 average height at maturity, its soil preference 

 and landscape uses. 



In describing colors of flowers, a new 

 idea is this year introduced in our catalog. 

 Ridgway's Color Chart, the standard rec- 

 ognized by many Garden Clubs, has been 

 used as our color guide. During the past 

 year, as flowers matured, they were com- 

 pared with this chart and their color 

 recorded. Even yet it is necessary that 

 allowances be made for the differences in 

 color, which changed soils and other con- 

 ditions may bring about ; but much greater 

 accuracy now exists than formerly, for 

 the colors are not what we think, but the 

 ones this authority has made standard. 



Wherever a description in this catalog 

 is preceded by the capital "R" the refer- 

 ence is to this Color Chart of Ridgway's 

 that so many Garden Clubs have adopted. 



Personal Inspection of 

 Our Nurseries 



F course, our 

 IBI customers 

 can'tallfind 

 it convenient to 

 visit us; but we 

 wish they could. 



A visit will 

 prove not only in- 

 teresting to you 

 in revealing the 

 almost infinite 

 variety of color, 

 flowers and plant 

 forms that are 

 here available for 

 lawn planting, but 

 be delightfully 

 educational as 



well. How, for instance, can we in word descrip- 

 tions do anything near justice to the varying 

 shades of foliage, ranging as they do from golden 

 to deep grayish greens? To see them in their 

 varyingly interesting foliage is a revelation. 



There is also a certain satisfaction in seeing the 

 plants you need; and in picking out the identical 

 ones you want. So we extend a hearty invita- 

 tion to visit us. Come any time except Sundays. 



The Ways to Reach Us 



EE map, page 2. By automobile we are 

 but one and one-half miles distant from 

 Trenton, on the Pennsylvania side of the 

 Delaware River. The famed Lincoln Highway 

 crosses at Calhoun Street bridge, Trenton, 

 and passes within one-quarter mile of our 

 nurseries. A turn .west at the Vardley Road 

 (road along which trolley passes) leads by 

 our properties, that extend for one and one- 

 quarter miles on either side of this thorough- 

 fare. 



By train we are easily accessible, being only 

 ninety minutes from the P. R. R. depot in New 

 York, and sixty minutes from Broad Street, 

 Philadelphia. Take fast express trains for 

 Trenton on the Pennsylvania Railroad. If 

 you will let us know of your intended coming, 

 our conveyance will meet you at the station; 

 otherwise trolley connections can be made at 

 Warren and Hanover Streets for Newtown or 

 Lambertville cars, passing our entrance but 

 ten minutes distant. 



By Philadelphia & Reading Railway we are 

 reached from Trenton, N. J., or Yardley, Pa., 

 our nurseries are but one and one-half miles 

 away, and also easily reached by trolley.

Why Buy of Moon ? 



ITH nursery stock much vitally depends 

 upon the cultivation and care that the 

 plants receive. The cost of freights, 

 planting, etc., are just as high with poor stock 

 as with good. The after-maintenance cost with 

 poor trees is greater. So before buying trees 

 or shrubbery that are to be a permanent invest- 

 ment, ask yourself these questions: 



Is it not best for me to communicate with 

 The Wm. H. Moon Company about the plant- 

 ing I have in mind, as here is a concern with 

 an enormous stock, careful cultural methods, 

 and a thoroughly systematic organization for 

 carefully attending to my wants? Their prices 

 are moderate (not necessarily cheapest, but 



fair); they dig 

 every plant fresh- 

 ly as ordered; 

 they are long es- 

 tablished and 

 have a record for 

 furnishing trees 

 and shrubbery for 

 many of the fin- 

 est places in 

 America. They 

 have no agents; 

 I can deal with 

 them direct and 

 my order will re- 

 ceive the inter- 

 ested attention of 

 someone who cares. 

 Even if I live 

 away off, they can pack and send me stock 

 that will give me satisfactory results. 



If these facts mean anything to you, we are 

 deserving of supplying you with our Hardy 

 Trees and Plants for the improvement of your 

 property. 



This entire organization puts its resources, 

 long experience and its honor back of you to 

 serve you when you trust it with your orders.
