Even then, with proper care after moving, most varieties, will 
grow satisfactorily. 
Most of the evergreens prefer a fairly deep loam for best 
results. The Pine and Junipers, however, are able to grow in 
rather poor, sandy soil and for that reason are adapted to sea¬ 
side or other locations where good soil is at a premium. 
If you are in doubt what evergreen to use for a particular 
purpose or location, a trip through the nursery will be very helpful. 
Here you will find evergreens of all types and sizes to facilitate 
your selection.
