Norway Spruce (Picea Excelsa). 
A rapid growing tree, very desirable for shelterbelt and background plant¬ 
ing. The Norway Spruce is gaining in popularity and rightly so for 
it is not only a rapid grower, but a very hardy tree which will thrive 
in any soil except poor gravel and sand.

Koster Blue Spruce (Picea Pungens Kosteriana). 
This is a strain of Colorado Blue Spruce selected for outstanding color 
and propagated by grafting. For those who want outstanding color, we 
recommend Kosters. They are as hardy as the Colorado Spruce grown 
from seed and require the same soil conditions.

Baby Evergreens 
Many evergreen fanciers find much pleasure and enjoyment in planting 
and caring for small evergreens. To meet the demand for small plants we 
offer the following seedlings and transplants. 
The seedlings should be grown under lath shade frame the first season. 
After two or three seasons growth they may be transplanted to a permanent 
location. The transplants may be planted in permanent location at once. 
They must, however, be given close cultivation for several years and under 
no circumstances should grass or weeds be permitted to form a sod about 
them.
