F OR wonderful effect both winter and 
summer, the Evergreen has no su¬ 
perior. Succeeding in almost any soil, 
with their range of color, form and habits 
of growth they find a place in almost any 
landscape plan. Our trees are all several 
times transplanted, dug with a ball of 
earth, and the finest to be had. 
Abies - Fir 
Abies concolor. Silver cr White Fir. The best 
of the Firs, and rivals Colorado Blue Spruce 
in showiness. We think it is one of the 
choicest of Evergreens and an ideal specimen 
plant. In colors it ranges from pale blue- 
green to blue, the needles being attractively 
distributed around the branches. Once estab¬ 
lished it is better able to withstand drought, 
as well as the soot and dust of city condi¬ 
tions. Of comparatively slow growth but as 
hardy as an oak.
