Young Aristocrats 
U nusual and rare varieties . . . true to 
name because they are grafted . . . easy 
to grow because they have already passed a 
season out-of-doors. Some Winter protection is 
desirable, but no other special treatment. Balled 
and Burlapped for still easier handling. (Please 
remember that Dutch burlap is used and can be 
planted without removing.) This is an amazing 
opportunity to plant rare and delightful ever¬ 
greens, trees and shrubs at little cost. (Weight 
1 to 3 pounds each.) 
START YOUR OWN NURSERY 
Wise old gardeners, you will notice, always have a few 
rows of trees and shrubs growing for future plantings. 
Even if your garden is now planted with ordinary back¬ 
ground shrubs and specimens, why not set aside among 
your flower-beds enough space here and there to plant a 
young aristocrat? In a few years, when larger, it can re¬ 
place an inferior shrub.

MILLIONAIRES’ SHRUBS IN MODEST GARDENS 
Some dwarf evergreens and flowering shrubs are extremely costly—they 
are the ones you read about as costing hundred or thousands of dollars 
apiece. Dwarf Boxwood, for instance. Most of these “Aristocrats” are far 
quicker in growth than the Box-wood—in five or ten years quite a respect¬ 
able-sized bush results from planting NOW the “Young Aristocrats” on 
this page. 
And when it has grown, you will see for yourself why hard-headed million¬ 
aires are willing to pay for them! Neatness, year-round beauty, and the 
fact that they do not grow out of bounds all mean something to any gardener! 
Dwarfs are the only shrubs or evergreens really fitted for foundation 
planting.
