The Garden Magazine, July, 1923 
Gel acquainted 
with your 
woods — 
—the woods that adjoin any 
village, or estate, the woods of 
Thoreau and Burroughs, the 
woods that form the sanctuary 
of all that’s lovely in the wilds 
—study those woods this month 
and get acquainted with new 
sources of delight. A copy of 
my catalogue may prove a use¬ 
ful companion on such trips! 
—and then, I can 
help you— 
for the woodland denizens have 
been my special favorites for 
years. My plant collection holds 
scores of them and many, being 
now in a semi-dormant condi¬ 
tion, can safely be transplanted 
this month and next. This is an 
ideal time to fill bare spots in 
the foundation plantings, around 
the rockery, and in the hardy 
border. Please write me, if 1 
can help, and if you haven’t it, 
ask for my free catalogue.

A few of our 77 Evergreen 
Varieties 
In August 
Plant Evergreens 
August is the ideal month for transplanting Ever¬ 
greens. To make success doubly certain, select Rose- 
dale Trees which have been transplanted again and again. 
Each transplanting has pruned the entire root system, 
forcing a vigorous growth close to the trunk. 
You can save years of waiting by ordering our Large 
Trees. Your choice of 77 varieties of Evergreens, to say 
nothing of Shade Trees and Fruit Trees. Our Catalogue 
tells all about them. It also describes the choicest Hardy 
Perennials, including Iris, Phlox and other universal 
favorites. A postal request will bring your copy.
