ANDORRA NURSERIES 
The Entrance to Andorra 
An Invitation to Andorra 
T HOSE who are interested in landscape art and the beauty 
of trees and plants out-of-doors are always cordially 
welcome at Andorra. Excellent highways through this 
beautiful rolling section of Pennsylvania, with its charm of 
Colonial manor house and country-place, offer inviting roads 
from every direction to visitors in motor cars. Train connec¬ 
tions over the Chestnut Hill branches of both the Pennsylvania 
and Reading Railroads make Andorra a two-hour run out of 
New York and a half-hour from the heart of Philadelphia; 
from Chestnut Hill Stations a ten-minute ride on the City Line 
trolley cars brings one to the gates of the Nurseries. 
Situated at the northern entrance of the far-famed Wissa- 
hickon Drive through Fairmount Park to Philadelphia, Andorra 
Nurseries are located in a rolling country offering a great 
variety of soils and exposures; with this great advantage of 
soils is coupled a range of temperature from the twenty-below- 
zero days of the Winter of 1917 to the hot dry Summers of 
this latitude, so that Hardy Trees, Evergreens and Shrubs, 
grown at Andorra, assure their success in every part of this 
country of varied climatic conditions to which their habit of 
growth fits them. 
Each Spring and Autumn a catalog is issued which gives 
to those who have never visited Andorra a worded picture of 
the hundreds of varieties and sizes of trees and shrubs to be 
found growing here, and in these catalogs will be found articles 
which deal with various subjects of planting and landscape 
design of interest to the lover of things beautiful out-of-doors.
