T he attractiveness and comfort that good trees bring to the home property is appreciated by everyone. 
The preservation of existing trees and the planting of new growth is truly of first importance in your 
landscape improvements. We will gladly help you select suitable varieties for your grounds. 
Since trees reach their maturity slowly you can save years of waiting by using larger sizes. That you may better judge the time 
saved by planting older stock we give both the size and the approximate age with the prices in our catalog listing. 
PLEASE NOTE: In the descriptions the figures following the name indicate the approximate height of growth.
