54 Evergreens 
THE STORRS & HARRISON CO. 
EVERGREENS 
Our Evergreens are all carefully ^own, at good distances for sym¬ 
metrical development, are root and top-pruned into handsome, shapely 
specimens that will transplant successfully to new homes with ordinary 
care. We pack them so that the root-fibers are well protected and will 
reach their destination in good growing condition. If planters will con¬ 
tinue this care to keep the fibers from drying out by exposure to air and 
sun, with watering thereafter, success ,is reasonably sure.

green foliage, dense from ground up; grows rapidly and soon fonns a 
most beautiful tree for any purpose. Like other types of Arbor-vitae 
the American can be trimmed at will, or even closely sheared when 
sufficiently developed to present formal lines and surface as a hedge.

choice broadly pyramidal evergreen 
with glaucous green (or slate blue) 
leaves and spreading, curving branches

ality in shape and greater appeal in 
color tone, but unfortunately they are 
impractical north of the Ohio river.
