Help Hints On Your Planting Problems 
gently, we must have somewhat complete 
information. 
For example, one Long Island man asked for 
a list of 12 best shrubs for foundation planting, 
and forgot to tell us whether it was for the 
North or South side of his home. 
On the other hand, for a newly married couple 
in Rhode Island, who told us they wanted “a 
screen of evergreens 25 feet long, to shut out their 
neighbors’ unattractive backyard activities,” 
we promptly had an answer in the return mail. 
One particularly pleasurable occurrence was 
the giving of suggestions for a rock garden for a 
retired banker’s wife, living in a Philadelphia 
suburb. 
For her neighbor, we have also subsequently 
planned a Shakespeare Garden of Hardy 
flowers. 
All of which brings us back again to the start- 
ing point — our Helpful Help Hints. 
We want you to use us, and them. Not that 
we are exactly an Information Bureau, but we 
have been able to offer our customers most 
satisfactory suggestions. 
One thing certain, no one has finer stock than 
we grow right here in our nursery. 
Our new catalogue you are most welcome to. 
p'ROM the way our friends are writing us 
^ for Help Hints in reply to our suggestions 
in last month’s advertisement; it is abundantly 
evident that we have a valuable service much 
wanted by the many. 
The requests for Help Hints, range all the 
way from the best quick clambering vine for 
covering a stone chimney, up to what and how 
to plant a new place, so it will look as if it had 
been established for years. 
One dear old lady up in Vermont, wrote us 
she “was born in the sunny South, where the 
lovely Cherokee Rose was associated with her 
childhood days; and wanted to know if we 
couldn’t send her some roses quite like the 
Cherokee? Ones that would stand the severity 
of New England’s Winters.” Happily we can. 
Some inquirers, however, seemed not quite 
to have understood our Helpful Help Hints 
offer for their planting problems; as they asked 
us to send the Helpful Hints; just as if it were a 
booklet or a catalogue Hint-filled. 
Our intention was to make it clear that if 
they would let us know what their planting pro- 
blems were, we would gladly suggest their solu-

Just naturally, in order to help you intelli- 
There is a lot of talk 
lately about roots. It 
leads us to think perhaps 
we haven't said enough 
about ours. Come to our 
nursery, and let us dig up 
a tree for you. We wiil 
let the roots speak for 
themselves. 
You can buy maples 
for almost any price, but 
we doubt if you can beat 
these for $2. They are 
10 to 12 feet high, with 
trunks measuring 45 to 5 
inches around. Special 
price of $19. on lots of 
ten.
