Evergreens 
No type of plant material is more adaptable for use on the home grounds, whether large or small. From 
the very dwarf types to the large-growing lawn specimens, evergreens offer interesting variety of foliage 
and color contrasts. For foundation planting they are unexcelled. 
Our landscape department will gladly assist you in making selections of the varieties best suited to your 
individual needs. No charge or obligation. 
Trimming and Spraying Service —We recommend trimming 
and spraying evergreens once a year, preferably during the 
summer. We hold ourselves ready to do this for you. 
EVERCREEN PRICES. We could supply evergreens at much lower 
prices if we did not observe the following quality producing require¬ 
ments. 
1. Transplanting in the nursery, every few years and cutting off the 
larger roots, so as to oblige compact and fibrous root systems which will 
withstand the shock of final transplanting to the customers’ premises. 
2. Regular and skilled trimming and pruning to produce compact 
and attractive foliage outline. 
3. Winter and summer spraying to assure freedom from insect pests. 
4. Scientific fertilization for the development of sturdiness and 
vigor, rather than merely rapid growth. 
ABIES concolor (White Fir)—The “Queen of the Firs” has 
flat silvery-green needles that seem to become more blue 
with age. Withstands city conditions and drought.
