At Boxford Nursery (East Boxford P. O.), on the 
Georgetown branch of the B. & M. R. R., may be 
seen growing the choicest collection of specimen 
nursery stock, selected for the most discriminating 
buyers. Special attention Is given to hardy native 
plants, which must always be the basis of suc¬ 
cessful permanent plantings. 
SPECIMEN STOCK. There is a growing demand 
for fine specimen stock in Conifers, Rhododendrons, 
Kalmias, Andromedas and other evergreens, and 
Boxford Nursery is established to supply this need. 
Landscape architects, park and cemetery super¬ 
intendents, and the owners of large estates will 
find it of great advantage to visit Boxford Nur¬ 
sery and personally select material in the nursery 
row. 
PRICES are made to fit the quality of stock sent 
out. Few realize that the real value of nursery 
stock is largely underground. Frequent transplant¬ 
ing, and handling specimens with adequate, burlaped 
balls, means success and quick results. It costs 
more, but it is the fixed policy of the Boxford 
Nursery; and “cheap'’ stock will not be handled or 
sent out. The best is always the cheapest. 
HIGHLANDS NURSERY SHIPMENTS are made 
from Pineola, N. C., freight station, and prices in 
this list are made on this basis. Freight and ex¬ 
press rates gladly quoted. Via Norfolk steamship 
lines, deliveries to northern and eastern points are 
quick and rates are low. 
SHIPMENTS OF “COLLECTED” RHODODEN¬ 
DRON MAXIMUM and KALMIAS are from my spe¬ 
cial fields in Pennsylvania and the South, depend¬ 
ing on destination and quality of stock desired. 
The best clumps come from the South, from high 
altitudes. “COLLECTED” RHODODENDRON CA- 
TAWBIENSE comes only from the South. 
MY NURSERIES ARE UNIQUE, being the first 
to grow Native American Ornamentals, and having 
the only large and complete stock of Hardy Amer¬ 
ican Plants in existence.
