Facts of First Importance 



[HAT you want to know at the very start is: Why should you buy your plants, shrubs 

 or trees of this Company in preference to others? Is our stock any better? Are we able 



to give you superior service? 



That our stock is better, the service we give superior, and the prices reasonable, will be further 

 apparent to you from even a brief scan of what follows. 



Size and Location of Nurseries 



^^BT Morrisville, Pa., wiiich is just across 

 the Delaware River from Trenton, N. J., 

 Wm% we have nurseries of Four Hundred and 

 Fifty acres that are devoted entirely to the 

 growing of Ornamental Trees, Shrubbery and 

 Hardy Plants for Every Place and Purpose. 

 These nurseries have been established for forty- 

 six years, but the Moon family started selling 

 nursery stock one hundred and fifty years ago. 

 A striking feature of them is the assortment of 

 almost 2,000 varieties; and a wide range of 

 sizes from which to choose. The wonderful 

 fertility of this soil of ours produces a stock of 

 great vigor and uniform development. Nearly 

 all our output is raised in these nurseries and 

 freshly dug for each order. We 

 maintain no storage cellar for 

 preserving our stock in Winter. 



Whatever you may want, 

 it's no little satisfaction to feel 

 that "Moon's likely have it." 

 This means much to you, es- 

 pecially when ordering during 

 the Spring rush, when every ^QPfelSVILLl 

 day counts. 



Assortment of Varieties 



iF you should walk up 

 i and down the hundreds 

 of rows of plants in our 



nurseries, until you had been 

 over them all, you would have 

 gone considerably more than 

 nine hundred miles and seen 

 some two thousand or more different varie- 

 ties of trees and shrubbery. You would be 

 thoroughly convinced of the appropriate title 



directly opposite Trenton, N. J 



of this catalog, "Hardy Trees and Plants 

 for Every Place and Purpose." In such a 

 collection there is the possibility of getting 

 direct from us the entire assortment for the 

 smallest or largest plantings. This overcomes 

 the disadvantage of numerous small shipments 

 coming from different places, which delays 

 one's planting. 



Ample Growing Space 



[OU would have particularly noticed that 

 the stock was not crowded. Frequent 



transplantings and wide spacing have 



given each specimen ample room to spread out 

 as well as grow up. 



Superior Roots 



^raF you had chanced upon 

 1 ■ some of our men when 

 W W they were digging shrubs 

 or trees, you would have noticed 

 what exceptionally large masses 

 of fibrous feeding roots each 

 plant possessed, instead of the 

 coarse, long ones which result 

 from lack of transplanting or 

 root training. The foreman 

 would have pointed out to you 

 that this highly developed "root 

 system," as he calls it, has much 

 to do with successful transplant- 

 ing and quick growth. Every 

 order is freshly dug. This assures 

 you that the virile strength that 

 the roots possess has not dried away from 

 being out of ground over Winter, or otherwise 

 subjected to long exposure.
