The Charm of a Doorway Planting of Evergreens is in Choosing Proper Sizes and 
Colors of Trees and Arranging Them Gracefully with the Taller Ones in Back. 
EVERGREENS 
. . . For Living Beauty The Year Round 
A LL OF our specimen evergreens are grown here at our nursery and have had excellent care 
so that all plants are SPECIMENS. All of our evergreens have been root and top pruned, 
so that with ordinaiy care they may be successfully moved from our nursery to your home. We 
dig and pack all of our stock so that the roots are well protected and will reach the customer 
without drying out. If planters will continue to keep the roots from becoming dried out until 
after planting, success is reasonably sure. 
ARBORVITAE 
AMERICAN. White Cedar. Upright, broad 
based, dark green foliage, dense, from the 
ground up. It can be trimmed or left to 
grow natural, either way will eventually be¬ 
come a very handsome tree. 
COMPACTA. Dwarf, dense little trees with 
light green foliage, very neat and attractive. 
Useful for beds, borders or low hedges. 
GLOBOSA. Forms a dense low natural globe. 
Fine for planting in the foreground of a 
foundation planting. Always a dwarf and 
never requires trimming to maintain its 
smooth round shape. 
LUTEA, GEO. PEABODY. An upright grower 
with its golden yellow color spreading deep¬ 
ly into the foliage. Shows up to best ad¬ 
vantage when planted among other dark 
green evergreens. 
ORIENTAL. An erect but broad and bushy 
specimen. A close rival of the ever popular 
American Arbor Vitae. It has a very attrac¬ 
tive yellow green foliage, which darkens 
somewhat in the winter. 
PYRAMIDALIS. A very dense columnar type, 
with dark green foliage, probably the most 
compact and erect of all the Arbor Vitae. 
The most popular upright evergreen for 
planting on either side of an entrance, or 
very correctly used as accent points, such as 
corners and pillars. 
SIBERIAN. A very hardy and vigorous va¬ 
riety always remaining very compact and 
symmetrical being very long lived. It is 
conical in outline and covered with dark 
green foliage that is different from the 
American A. V. in that it is much heavier 
and deeply crested. It is much used for 
foundation planting and may be used in 
hedges.
