ERNST’S QUALITY EVERGREENS 
We take special care in growing our evergreens. All of our evergreens have been transplanted and 
root pruned thus insuring a well developed root system, which is so fundamental in the life and 
beauty of an evergreen after transplanted. They have all been properly sprayed so no disaese or Red 
Spider will be carried, thus spoiling their beauty. We carefully ball and burlap all our evergreens, at 
no additional charge, thus insuring our customers that their evergreens will live. 
We are listing only popular sizes. Prices on larger trees on request.
