T HE prime essential of success in 
transplanting trees and shrubs is 
that they have a system of fine 
fibrous roots which are obtained at 
Andorra by frequent transplanting and 
pruning. Most deciduous trees and 
shrubs when they drop their leaves are 
in a dormant state, and do not require the 
same degree of care in handling as the 
evergreen trees which always bear their 
leaves, and so are always exposed to unto¬ 
ward conditions of drought and wind. To 
insure the success of our evergreens in 
shipping, their compact balls of fine 
fibrous roots are carefully lifted from the 
ground still surrounded by the damp pro¬ 
tecting soil in which they grew, and 
securely wrapped in burlap, so that they 
are never exposed to the danger of dry¬ 
ing out in shipment, and they will reach 
the purchaser in perfect condition. 
This is only an example of the atten¬ 
tion which we pay to the many details 
which differentiate our service from that 
of many other nurserymen.
