ready for early spring delivery 
Greening’s American Arbor Vitae are selected stock. Fifteen years ago, in the Experimental 
grounds of our Nursery, we began propagating and cultivating the hardiest Evergreens the 
world affords. Sturdy youngsters as they grew, they were transplanted many times. By 
constant root and top-pruning, we developed those compact root systems that insure successful 
transplanting and the perfect shapes which landscape architects demand. We can dig and ship 
with Big Ball of Earth. Our soil, a heavy loam with clay subsoil, clings firmly to the large 
masses of fibrous roots, enabling the plants to get 
quickly established in new surroundings. 
Now, after fifteen years devoted to perfecting the 
Greening Evergreen, we offer you these 10,000 beauti- 
ful, hardy, sure-to-grow ornamental Evergreens — you 
may select the sizes and shapes (we have a wonderful 
variety) that will best enhance the beauty of your 
landscape architecture. The time to select your 
spring trees is NOW.
