NOTE—Some customers do not understand why shrubs are received in dormant 
condition, without foliage, etc., and think because they are “dead looking” that 
they are without life. Of course this impression is wrong as all hardy growth in our 
northern country is suspended during winter season, but springs to renewed life 
when growing time comes.
