Deciduous Shrubs 
We continually try to Impress upon our customers the fact that the mere 
height of a shrub does not indicate its value, but that its “bushiness” must 
also be taken into consideration. Shrubs grown closely in nursery rows must 
necessarily make height but the “bushiness” is sacrificed. A good, bushy, 
two to three-feet shrub is worth as much as a “slim” three to four-feet plant 
and for results it is worth more. 
We grow our shrubs in wide rows and allow plenty of space between the 
plants in the rows to permit them to develop properly. It costs more to grow 
shrubs this way than where they are grown closely together, as we cannot 
plant as many on an acre. In comparing our prices with those of other growers, 
this fact should be given consideration. 
“Heavy” shrubs indicate those which have been given extra room in the 
nursery rows.
