^ Ornamental shrubs are the 
X backbone of all landscape plant- 
^ ings. Whether one is building an 
outdoor living room, constructing 
a foundation planting, or making 
other border plantings, hardy 
shrubs are indispensable. Much 
beauty and individuality may be 
secured through the varying 
heights, forms, flowers, barks and 
foliage found in the different va¬ 
rieties. 
Of the hundreds of different 
shrubs, the ones we are growing 
have proven themselves the cream 
of those suited to the Northwest. 
Every one has its special merit. 
By selecting the proper assortment 
for each situation one can build 
oneself a home landscape of sur¬ 
passing charm and beauty. 
Our plants are infinitely superior to the so-called “bargain” shrubs so fre¬ 
quently offered where one has no assurance of size and quality, but is simply 
offered some meaningless description as “2-year-old,” double N or triple X. 
The plants we offer are well grown with good tops and roots—unusually fine 
plants for the low price we ask. Twelve of one kind for 10 times the each price.
