Evergreens For Winter Cheer 
JUNIPER 
Evergreens are always impressive in Winter. They give a note of 
cheer and warmth to the Winter landscape. The influence of evergreens 
around the home gives a friendly aspect to our surroundings. If for no 
other reason, the Winter effect alone makes evergreens worthwhile. 
It is satisfactory to know that your planting of evergreens increases 
in value each year. At the same time it adds dignity and stability to the 
appearance of your home grounds and without question makes them more 
readily saleable. 
Each (x) indicates one transplanting. (B&B) signifies balled and bur- 
lapped.

should be given for perfect development. Concolor Fir is also known as Tr:-" 
“White Fir.” It can be planted in groups or in single specimens.
