SALZER’S EVERGREENS 
Formerly, Evergreens were all shipped Balled and Burlapped, the heavy weight of the earth causing enormous 
express charges to be added to the cost of the plant. Salzer’s method of shipping eliminates all this, and with 
our method of packing, one is virtually assured of a healthy growth under almost any 
soil conditions. Naturally, there are extreme cases, and we cannot guarantee that 
every tree will live, but we do guarantee to replace at half-price any Evergreen that 
dies the first year, if the customer will notify us before October 15. The illustrations 
of course, show the matured trees. 
AMERICAN ARBOR VITAE—Very hardy. Much used for hedges, screens, singly on 
lawns, and in tubs for porches, etc. It is a handsome little tree, of slow growth, pyra¬ 
mid shaped, and eventually will be 10 to 12 feet high. Can be trimmed and kept in 
any form and to any height. The flat, finely carved, soft and flexible foliage in the 
summer is bright green above, yellowish beneath, and in winter changes to the richest 
tones of brown and bronze. Each, 12-15 in. high, 75c; 3 for $1.95; 6 for $3.25, ppd. 
PYRAMIDALIS ARBOR VITAE —One of the most beautiful varie¬ 
ties, very erect and regular in form, in growth similar to the American 
Arbor Vitae above. Of dense, compact, slow growth, narrow and 
columnar form, deep rich green color at all seasons, and hardy. 
Lovely fern-like, soft foliage. Each, 13-18 in. high, $1.45; 3 for $4.15, 
postpaid. 
BLACK HILLS SPRLCE —a splendid evergreen for the lawn. 
Hardiest of all, symmetrical, compact and bushy, lovely green to 
bluish foliage all year long. Eventually reaches a height of 25 feet, 
but as it is a very slow grower, it is very frequently planted close to 
the house. Each, 12-18 in. high, $1.75, postpaid. 
COLORADO BLUE SPRUCE— 'A lovely tree with a bluish tinge to 
the foliage, very ornamental and very desirable. Easily grown. At 
this low price, we offer field run stock of green and blue type, which 
simply means that we do not rogue them and some may not be so 
decidedly blue as others. A big bargain for the price. Each, 12-18 
inches high, $1.69; 3 for $4.95, postpaid. 
NORWAY SPRUCE— This is the variety most used for Christmas 
Trees. Plant at least one this spring, and wire it with colored electric 
lights next Christmas. It is a good, rich, dark green color, but when 
the new spring growth lights up the branches with its silvery blue 
tips, it is most conspicuous and showy. Very hardy and desirabie. 
Each, 1S-24 in. high, 95c; 3 for $2.60, postpaid. 
MUGHO PINE —Mugho Pine is a low, compact grower, having many 
stems, and is of excellent green color. The branches, tipped with the 
new growth in the spring, closely resemble tiny candlesticks all over 
the entire plant. Should be in every lawn. Never grows over 4 to 5 
feet tall and eventually spreads out to 6 feet wide. Each, 9-12 in. 
spread, $1.10; 3 for $3.15, postpaid.
