BIG TREES 
HOW WE MOVE LARGE TREES 
We move large Trees by digging out 
around the tree and encasing the roots 
and soil in a large box, specially made 
for the purpose. Practically the entire root 
system in native soil is undisturbed, and 
moved with the tree. Literally thousands 
of fibrous roots—the real feeders of the 
tree—will never be broken or exposed to 
sun or air. The box is removed when the 
tree is planted in its new location. 
This type of Tree-moving requires ex¬ 
pert handling and is quite expensive, but 
it absolutely guarantees the tree to live 
and continue to grow in its healthful con¬ 
dition.

light of the Southern sun.

YOUR INQUIRIES INVITED 
Tree Moving is a special department of 
our Nursery business, under the direction 
of an exp'ert, who employs the most modern 
equipment. We move Trees up to 7 or 8 
inches in diameter at any season of the 
year and almost never have a loss. We 
do not prune back the tops as a rule, and 
when the tree has been moved, it has its 
original appearance. 
The great amount of time saved and 
the immediate beauty added to the property 
by moving large trees is an exceedingly 
important item. Our cost is not high. In 
fact, it is most extraordinarily low. If you 
have work of this type, give us full de¬ 
tails and we will quote you a price for the 
complete job.
