Border Planting 
For Decoration and Protection 
FIFTEEN MAGNIFICENT EVERGREENS 
To cover a space 20 to 30 feet long. This group may 
be planted to border a property, along a drive, or to 
screen a wall or building. All are quality evergreens 
shipped with big balls of native loam burlap wrapped. 
On town and suburban properties borders are ex¬ 
tremely important for protection as well as decora¬ 
tion. Usually limited to relatively small space they 
must attract the eye and at the same time shut out 
sights, sounds and dust from neighboring properties 
and from the street. A selection from the following 
plants will make an excellent border for decorating 
and protecting.
