I N PREVIOUS CATALOGUES this page was headed 
“Landscape Service,” but this year we have changed 
it to “Planning and Planting Service” as being more 
descriptive of what we are prepared to do in the way of 
making American homes more beautiful and better places 
in which to live. 
We have trained landscape people competent to plan 
and plant anything from a small city lot to a large estate, 
and we have the plant material right here in our Nursery 
to select from. 
One principal reason why we wish you to know about 
this “Planning and Planting Service” is that we love 
plants and we would like to know, as far as possible, that 
every plant that leaves our Nursery is properly planted 
under right conditions so that it will give satisfaction to 
the new owner. New plants appear every year. There are 
new shrubs as well as new perennials and new things from 
bulbs, so why not let us figure on bringing your garden up 
to date? The improvement can be as modest or as elabo¬ 
rate as you wish. 
Perennial borders need overhauling once in a while, 
and, as some of the newer perennials are real advances, 
a new border will not only change the garden picture but 
the new plants will bring much pleasure with them. Or 
if you do not have a border, let us show you what one will 
look like. 
Roses bring color and fragrance into the garden and 
furnish the finest of cut-flowers for the house. Have you 
ever thought of a rose-garden of your own? The cost need 
be only what you wish and the dividends in beauty and 
pleasure are unlimited. We plan and plant wonderful 
rose-gardens. 
If you have room for a few flowering shrubs, trees, or 
beautiful specimen evergreens, let us plant them for you 
and they will soon add dollars to the value of your property 
as well as bring pleasure to every member of the family. 
Our stock of Lilacs and other flowering shrubs is a leading 
one-—every plant will be a proud possession of the home- 
owner. 
A properly planted and well-cared-for evergreen hedge 
is one of the most economical ways to increase property 
values. A nice hedge surrounding the property gives a 
feeling of privacy that one can never get from a fence. 
Let us show you our hedge possibilities in Yew, Hemlock 
or Arborvitse, three of the finest of hedging plants. Behind 
a nice hedge, under the shade of your own trees, is just 
the place for that outdoor living-room so enjoyable on a 
hot day. 
We have suggested but a few of the things our “Plan¬ 
ning and Planting Service” would like to do for you, and 
the cost would be much less than you imagine. 
At any rate, come to the Nursery and see the splendid 
planting material grown right here where we can watch it 
all the time. If you like plants half as much as we do, you 
will enjoy a visit and we shall be glad to see you.
