At Boxford Nursery (East Boxford P. O.), on the 
Georgetown branch of the B. & M. R. R., may be 
seen growing the choicest collection ot specimen 
nursery stock, selected for the most discriminating 
buyers. Special attention is given to hardy native 
plants, wliich must always be the basis of suc- 
cessful permanent plantings. 
SPECIMEN STOCK. There is a growitxg demand 
for fine specimen stock In Conifers, Rhododendrons, 
Kalmias, Andromedas and other evergreens, and 
Boxford Nui-sery is established t« supply this need. 
I^andscape architects, park and cemetery super- 
intendents, and the owners ot large estates will 
find it of great advantage to visit Boxford Nur- 
sery and personally select material in the nursery 
row. 
PRICES are made to fit the quality ot stock sent 
out. Few realize that the real value ot nursery 
stock is largely underground. Frequent transplant- 
ing, and handling specimens with adequate, burlaped 
balls, means success and quick results. It costs 
more, but it is the fixed policy ot the Boxford 
Nursery; and "cheap" stock will not be handled or 
sent out. The best Is always the cheapest.
