Coniferous Evergreens 
Our Evergreens are famous for their beauty—they combine richness 
of color and unusual shapeliness. 
Every planting- must include some of the Coniferous Evergreens to make it complete. They are 
called Coniferous Evergreens because of the cones which they bear. 
It is impossible to describe here the great beauty of these plants, the variety of colors, or the 
variety of shapes which may be had. They are popular not only for foundation plantings but also 
in groups on the lawn, or planted singly as specimen plants. 
The Coniferous evergreens are especially beautiful in winter, when most plants are dormant, as 
the absence of other colors helps to bring out their beauty of color and form in a most striking 
manner. 
All our Coniferous Evergreens are delivered to you with a ball of earth surrounding the roots, 
securely burlapped. In this way, you receive each plant with its root system practically intact, and 
they continue their growth with hardly any interruption. Do not remove the burlap—just loosen 
string at the top.
