CLIBRANS’ 
Ornamental Trees, Shrubs, Conifers, 
Climbers, &c. 
T HE charming effects that can be obtained by the judicious selection and 
planting of the many ornamental trees and shrubs are apparently without 
limit. The great diversity in form and outline of growth, the variation 
in colouration of the flowers and the seasons when they are produced, 
the many beautiful berries by which so many of them are succeeded, the evergreen 
and deciduous character of the foliage, all form an illimitable source of beauty 
from which the loveliest pictures can be evolved. 
It is continually our aim 
and desire to make our col- 
lection of these subjects as 
complete and comprehensive 
of all that is beautiful and best, 
as is possible. 
In the following pages will 
be found the best and most 
ornamental representatives of 
the many families ; there are 
others that we do not include, 
ow'ing perhaps to some weak- 
ness of constitution or other 
character that renders them 
unsuitable for general cultiva- 
tion. Our purpose has been 
to bring together all those that 
are most desirable and can be 
relied upon to thrive w'ell, if 
given ordinary care and atten- 
tion. 
Our stock of Trees, Shrubs, 
and Hardy Woody Plants in 
general, have never been in 
better condition than they are 
now. Perfect development, 
well ripened, and splendidly 
rooted, correctly named, free 
from all pests and disease, 
they are in an ideal condition 
for removal and cannot fail, if Photo ] [Clibrans 
given ordinary care and attention, to give complete satisfaction to our customers. 
The fact that our open ground nurseries cover 400 acres, and that our sales are 
annually increasing, is proof that our 'efforts to supply the highest quality in 
Trees, Shrubs, and allied plants, at moderate prices, has met, and continues to 
meet with the best of all appreciations, viz., “ repeat orders.” 
We have always made it a point, and shall continue to do so, to give every 
facility to our customers or prospective customers, if they so desire, to inspect 
our stocks. In our opinion, nothing is so satisfactory or so convincing to the purchaser 
as having the opportunity of inspecting the goods before buying. We welcome 
inspection, and shall at all times be pleased to send a conveyance either to Hale 
or Altrincham Station to meet any of our friends, upon receiving intimation a few 
posts in advance of their arrival.
