Broad-Leaved Evergreens 
We can supply large specimen plants of many varieties of Broad-leaved Evergreens described 
in this catalogue. 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 transplating. In fact, 
it is impossible 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 wrapped in burlap, it is not necessary to remove this burlap. 
Place the plant to the right depth in the properly prepared hole; cut the string so that the burlap 
can be released from about the ball 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. The earth about the 
roots should not be disturbed. When the hole has been half-filled with earth, pour in water 
freely, but not so as to wash the soil from about the roots of the plant. After the water l a 
settled put in more dirt, firm this well about the roots of the plant, and then fill up the hole.
