SHRUBS AND HEDGE PLANTS 
Nothing adds so much to the beauty of the home surroundings, nothing gives so much pleasure, 
as a good lawn and well-placed shrubs and vines. The number which may be planted will be governed 
by the shape and extent of the grounds, but even the smallest lot has a place for a few. They should 
be planted in masses, in corners and about the buildings, always leaving a goodly proportion of 
open lawn. Aside from their value in beautifying the grounds, they actually increase the money 
value of a property. A city lot, for instance, with well-grown shade trees and shrubs, is decidedly 
more valuable than a piece of bare ground. 
The varieties offered are those which have been thoroughly tested and which we know will 
give satisfaction. Our stock is healthy, vigorous and well grown.
