Suggestions for Effective Planting 
I N this booklet we present an original idea in the arrangement 
of a nursery catalog, in line with our policy of service and atten¬ 
tion to the needs of our patrons in every detail of the business. 
We have discarded the alphabetical or botanical classifications which 
to many are sometimes merely a maze of strange Latin names and 
botanical terms and have endeavored to list our plants in a concise, 
convenient manner, with regard to their uses in garden and land¬ 
scape planting. Of course, many trees and plants are adapted to a 
wide variety of situations, which readily suggest themselves on 
closer acquaintance, but in the main the classifications in the 
following pages convey the suggestion of the various landscape 
arrangements to which the trees and plants most readily lend 
themselves and to which they are preeminently fitted by their 
natural habit of growth. 
A mere statement of height is a poor criterion in judging the 
quality or value of nursery stock, as the factors which make for 
successful growth and satisfactory results are a strong, vigorous 
root-system and thick spreading top. All our nursery stock is 
grown with ample width for such development and we transplant 
frequently to produce a strong fibrous root-system, so that the 
buyer is assured a stocky well-balanced plant, whether large or 
small. Mere height may be only an indication of crowding and lack 
of proper transplanting in the nursery.
