HARRISONS’ NURSERIES 
The Spruces 
All the Spruces grow as upright trees, tapering to a pointed top. For orna¬ 
mental plantings and windbreaks they are almost invaluable. They are not 
surpassed by any evergreen in the winter landscape, the shadings of Koster’s 
and Colorado Blue, of Douglas, or of the White Spruce harmonizing with the 
deep coloring of pines and hemlocks in a most pleasing fashion. 
0¥ ¥ T¥r* pungens glauca 
|i3 IJM r -« Kosteriana). Foli- 
age intense silvery 
blue and very dense on the branch ends; rapid grower and 
has regular, slim branches. Our trees are grafted from the 
finest specimens and have the rich blue color that makes the Koster’s 
Spruce so handsome. We cut scions from the bluest and handsomest speci¬ 
mens we can find, and graft them on sturdy seedling roots. This insures 
that every specimen will be of the true blue color. Seedling Blue Spruces 
often revert to the green type after a few years. Each 10
