Gentlemen: 
Those six Magnolias, the receipt of which I wrote you 
before receiving yours of March 9, are now safely planted. 
To all appearance they arrived in perfect condition, not 
having damaged in the least. They were mt of the ground 
a month, I assume, but were so excellently balled and bur- 
lapped that I do not see how they could have suffered. I 
never saw balling and burlapping so well done, and the 
trees arrived with the balls still solid and wet. 
We took great pains in planting them and are much 
pleased with their size and general appearance of thrifti¬ 
ness. 
Buxus Suffruticosa—Dwarf Box. This is a most popular 
variety; it is the one so often seen growing around long 
established homes. Used for edging, borders and walks, 
and about always retains its dwarf compact habit of 
growth.
