It is a good idea to confer with your 
neighbors and your Superinteyident of 
Parks when selecting street trees. The 
best effect is produced when plantings 
are uniform. We can often supply trees 
at lower prices when a large quantity 
for street planting is ordered at one 
time. We will gladly assist in choosing 
the best variety for your location.
