Everg'reens 
All of our evergreens are specimens. Every tree is given 
careful attention and such varieties as Retinisporas, etc., re¬ 
quiring it, are sheared as often as necessary in order to pro¬ 
duce a bushy symetrical tree. They are all branched to the 
ground. We frequently transplant our evergreens and in that 
way, we get a mass of fibrous roots. In nearly every case, as 
noted in the catalogue, the trees will be dug with a ball of 
earth and the ball sewed in burlap. This makes the trans¬ 
planting of them almost an assured success. Of course, the 
first cost of these evergreens dug and handled in this way, 
is more than common, but as the planter has practically no 
loss with them, he is saving money in the long run. Our stock 
must not be confused with low priced evergreens rarely 
transplanted and grown thickly together.
