What The New 
Sonderegger 
Garden Book 
Contains 
Fruit trees and high class fruit pro¬ 
ducing grapes and berry plants. 
This part of the book is by Charles 
Sonderegger, the oldest member of 
the House of Sonderegger and its 
president. You can safely follow his 
planting instructions, and make your 
selection according to his descrip¬ 
tions. 
Shade and ornamental trees, shrubs, 
plants and bulbs are being de¬ 
scribed for you by Fred Sondereg¬ 
ger. Whenever you wish to have 
additional information concerning 
the care of trees or plants, Fred will 
be happy to have you write him. 
Wherever the advice of a designer 
was needed we were fortunate in 
having Leo Sondereger, a landscape 
architect of outstanding reputation. 
His thorough knowledge of proper 
application of trees and shrubs has 
been partly included in this book, 
Leo's work being the creation of 
better parks, better harmony in plant¬ 
ing. Special planting plans, in¬ 
dividually made and designed for 
your purposes can be made for you 
by Leo. If you are interested in this 
special artist service kindly write, 
stating size of your grounds, and 
Leo will make you a price for the 
plan complete. ! 
Seeds of vegetables and flowers 
have received special attention. 
This department is in the hands of 
Ernest and Arthur Sonderegger. Be¬ 
ginning with page 50 of this book 
you will find not only descriptions of 
vegetables but a most complete as¬ 
sortment of seeds of all kinds. Son¬ 
deregger customers everywhere 
know that rare seeds, special seed 
varieties, in short, everything in 
seeds that is not found elsewhere— 
Sonderegger has it. This is just one 
more reason why you will like this 
book once you have studied it. 
Sonderegger never stands still. The 
men behind this name come from 
the hard school of the late Carl Son¬ 
deregger, the Midwest's outstanding 
nurseryman. Better trees, better 
plants, better seeds, and better ser¬ 
vice is the Sonderegger motto. We 
use up-to-date equipment in the pro¬ 
duction of our stock. We take ad¬ 
vantage of everything modern 
science discovers in the interest of 
growing and breeding better plant¬ 
ing stock. We test novelties care¬ 
fully, and from the good we select 
the best. Buy under the name of 
Sonderegger, it is your protection.

★ WHAT TO PLANT

★ TO PLANT . . . . 
This book is the 53rd annual garden book by Sondereg¬ 
ger. It has been made up entirely new, in design as 
well as in descriptions. We have carefully selected 
true-to-life photos showing how fruit or trees or plants 
will look in your garden. We used pictures of fruit and 
plants that w«re grown by amateurs rather than by 
experts. 
Descriptions and planting instructions were written new. 
As we wrote them we pictured you here with us giving 
us the opportunity to give you whatever advice we can 
from our own actual experience as well as from the 
things we have learned from others. We want you to 
have planting material that does well with you, and that 
gives you the most for your investment. You find no 
exaggerations in this book, you can make your selection 
from our descriptions as good as an expert nurseryman 
could make it for you. 
Prices are low, but even though we have reduced our 
prices generously the quality of our stock was in no way 
impaired. We have never sacrificed quality to reduce 
prices. 
To say that the quality of our trees and plants and seeds 
is the best is in every respect the truth—substantiated 
by more specific facts about our trees and plants. 
1. Sizes quoted are the actual sizes of the tree or shrub 
after planting, in other words, a 3 to 4-ft. tree will be of 
that size, not including the measurements of the roots. 
Our 2 to 3-ft. trees would measure well over 4 ft. if the 
roots were measured in on the height. 
2. For perfect roots and general health every tree or plant 
is inspected at least twice, and is further covered by 
our uncurtailed guarantee of safe delivery. 
3. Our trees and shrubs are upland grown, exposed to ex¬ 
tremely hot and dry summers, and severe cold winter— 
self-evident reasons for the wonderful results our cus¬ 
tomers have always had with our trees and plants. For 
52 years we have served thousands and thousands of 
customers in every state of the Union, in Alaska, Can¬ 
ada, Mexico and in oversea countries. 
4. With satisfied customers through excellent quality and 
service we have built up our business, not with expen¬ 
sive advertising campaigns. We get orders from our 
old customers, from those who have bought from us 
for 20 and more years, and from their friends. 
We appreciate your patronage.
