With this fifth catalog, it is our privilege to enter upon our twenty-fourth year of 
business. We have served many of our clients the greater part of that time, others only 
more recently. To each we want to express our most heartfelt thanks and the hope that 
we may continue to serve in the future. 
To new and old clients we offer honesty of value and sincerity of purpose. 
The twenty-four years of our business life have been through the years of the greatest 
progress of the nursery industry, and we have made every effort to keep abreast with it. 
Each new year has found us determined to serve you better than in the year past. We have 
adopted improved methods of growing, propagating and handling as they were developed, 
and proven. Likewise, we have made use of every new development of mechanical equip¬ 
ment that would widen our field of service, or give us more efficiency and economy in 
bringing our products to you. And. to all these efforts we promise to continue to subscribe. 
In the presentation of our catalog, it is our aim to not only give you a price list of the 
plants we grow, but a short description of them, pictures of various gardens to give you 
ideas for their use, and list of plants adaptable for certain uses. All this is in this catalog, 
too, and in addition a description of the methods we use in constructing, planting, and 
maintaining garden developments, so that you might use them as a guide in caring for 
your own property, and also that the quality of our work might be better understood. 
Now, with best wishes for happiness and joy in your garden, and the hope that we may 
serve you for many years to come, we beg to remain, 
Sincerely yours, 
THE HILLSDALE LANDSCAPE COMPANY
