Note the border of low-growing Deciduous Shrubs surrounding the 
Flower Garden. In the right background is a screen planting of 
taller shrubs — to the left is a deciduous hedge. 
Similar results can be duplicated on your 
home grounds by the careful planting, during 
the next sixty days, of well-grown shrubs and 
trees — such as were used in the planting pic- 
tured above. 
October for Deciduous 
Plant Materials 
Now that the leaves are falling and the stems 
and twigs have matured, Deciduous Shrubs 
and Trees may be planted with assurance of 
success. The soil is in good condition to pack 
around the roots — the coming snows will aid 
this packing — and the plants will be ready to 
burst into leaf upon the first warmth of Spring. 
Our Book — “ Beautiful 
Home Surroundings” 
will aid you in selecting the proper shrubs 
and trees for beautifying your home. May 
we send you a copy?
