T HE attractiveness and comfort that good trees bring to the home property is appreciated by everyone. 
The preservation of existing trees and the planting of new growth is truly of first importance in your 
landscape improvements. We will gladly help you select suitable varieties and plan their proper placing for 
your yard. 
Since trees reach their maturity slowly you can save years of waiting by using larger sizes. That you 
may better judge the time saved by planting older stock we give both the size and the approximate age 
with the prices in our catalog listing.
