Colorado Grown Nursery Stock 
The degree of successful growth of nursery 
stock purchased can definitely be measured by the 
quality of the nursery stock planted. It has long 
been proved that the best stock is grown under con¬ 
ditions similar to those under which it finally is 
expected to grow. 
The area comprising the plateau region adja¬ 
cent to the Rocky Mountains is in a climatic belt 
that is different, especially in regard to woody and 
perennial plant growth. 
Colorado Grown stock is so tempered by our 
dry atmosphere, cool nights, bright sunshine, soil 
conditions and sudden temperature changes, that 
when correctly grown, is the finest nursery stock 
money can buy. A tree or plant gives off an un¬ 
believable amount of moisture, and the dryer the air, 
the greater is the evaporation. The root system 
must furnish this extra moisture to nourish the 
plant. That is why our nursery stock must have 
well developed fibrous roots that will readily con¬ 
tinue growth when transplanted. Top growth is 
more gradual, building closely knit bark and wood 
cells that do not especially demand mild, damp 
weather to generate growth or to preserve it during 
winter. 
Protect your investment by buying the right 
varieties that are grown to fit the climate. 
We wish to call your attention to our fruit tree 
department which produces the largest number of 
Colorado Grown fruit trees in the state. These 
trees have been referred to as “the height of perfec¬ 
tion". Perhaps that is why our many satisfied cus¬ 
tomers have assisted us in becoming fruit tree head¬ 
quarters of Colorado.
