Spondias Axillaris 
Spondias Axillaris. ( Poupartia ). A handsome tree grow¬ 
ing from 50 to 75 feet tall. Introduced from China

tree is a most valuable addition to our collection of 
hardy deciduous trees. The trunk is straight with a 
spreading, rounded crown. The leaves are long, re¬

borne in clusters. These are followed by yellow, oval

Broad Leaved Evergreens 
We can supply large specimen plants of many varieties of Broad-leaved Evergreens described in this cat¬ 
alogue. Descriptions, prices and sizes will be given to prospective purchasers. All of our plants are most 
carefully grown, frequently transplanted, pruned and given plenty of space; therefore the plants which are offered 
are stately, vigorous and healthy. 
Many of our evergreens are grown in pots, thereby increasing safety in transplanting. In fact, it is impos¬ 
sible to transplant some varieties of Broad-leaved Evergreens which have been grown in open ground; therefore, 
to make the transplanting of these particular varieties assured, we grow them in pots. 
Nearly all plants which are taken from the open ground are lifted with a ball of earth about the roots. 
This is wrapped in moss, excelsior or burlap. When transplanting evergreens which have a ball of earth about 
the roots and same wrapped in burlap, it is not necessary to remove this burlap. Place the plant to the right 
dr« ■ h ’r ‘he properly prepared hole; cut the string so that the burlan can be released from about the hall of 
earth around the roots of the plant. It is not necessary to remove the burlap from the hole, but when the ball 
of earth about the roots of the plant is wrapped in moss or excelsior this wrapping must be carefully removed, 
but the earth about the roots should not be disturbed. When the hole lias been half-filled with earth, ixntr in 
water freely, but not so as to wash the soil from about the roots of the plant. After the water has settled put 
in more dirt and firm this well about the roots of the plant, and then fill up the hole. 
In transplanting broad-leaved evergreens the soil should be properly prepared and holes bf ample size dug 
and fertilized. In all cases the fertilizer must be thoroughly incorporated with the soil. If the roots of the 
plants come in contact with the unmixed manure the plants are apt to die. Should the ball of earth about the 
roots of broad-leaved evergreens fall away, then the plant must be defoliated and properly pruned. 
pven w * ,en ^ ie ball eartb about the roots of plants remains intact it is advisable to prune severely 
and defoliate such plants as Abelia. Cerasus Caroliniana. Camphor, Citrus Fruits. Cotoneaster, Crataegus, Elaeagnus, 
Ilex, Laurocerasus, Ligustrums, Neriums, Photinia, Quercus. 
It is advisable to place a mulching of well-rotted leaves to a depth of 4 to 6 inches about the plants, as this
