E VERGREENS are the aristocrats of the plant world. 
They give dignity and charm to the home grounds. 
In summer and winter alike Evergreens will bring 
the freshness and beauty of the woods right into the 
yard about your home. 
Some years ago Evergreens were used but spar¬ 
ingly and one seldom saw them except as an occa¬ 
sional group on the lawn of some larger property. 
MODERN GARDENING FAVORS EVERGREENS 
Today the striking attractiveness that is so evident 
in the surroundings of the newly-landscaped homes 
is largely the result of the generous use of evergreens 
in the planting. The present moderate cost and the 
compelling beauty of the evergreens gives them this 
deserving popularity. 
NEW EVERGREEN VARIETIES 
Fortunate we are indeed to have available many 
new evergreen varieties that were unknown in the 
past. By a wise selection and arrangement of these 
modern evergreen forms, a fresh interest and beauty 
can be given to older plantings and an unusual at¬ 
tractiveness to new ones. 
WE HELP YOU MAKE SELECTIONS 
Whether your yard plantings are now established 
or still to be placed you have equal opportunity to 
use evergreens to heighten the attractiveness of your 
home. We will be happy to help you make suitable 
selections.

EVERGREENS FOR HOUSE FOUNDATION 
PLANTING 
The dwarf-type evergreens with compact growth 
and refined foliage are particularly suited for plant¬ 
ing about the building. For this purpose use such 
varieties as the Globe Arborvitae, Pfitzer and Savin 
and Bar Harbor Junipers and Mugho Pines. 
At house corners and by the doorway where taller 
evergreens are desired the Scopulorum Juniper, Red 
Cedar and American and Pyramidal Arborvitaes are 
adapted. 
EVERGREENS FOR THE LAWN 
For lot boundary and screen plantings and for 
lawn groups and specimens the taller-growing and 
spreading evergreens are needed. The Pines, the 
Spruces and untrimmed Red Cedars and American 
Arborvitaes are suited to this use.
