NURSERY DEPARTMENT 
W E TAKE great pride in offering a very select 
list of evergreen and deciduous trees, broad¬ 
leaved evergreens, shrubs and vines, and some 
of the rare ornamentals we grow. These should be a 
part of every home or estate planting. As we grow 
many other worth-while items too numerous to include 
in a catalogue of this nature, we invite your inquiries 
about ornamentals not here listed but which are most 
likely included in our great nursery. 
The size where mentioned immediately after the 
name of the item indicates the ultimate height or 
spread. Only under very favorable conditions will 
plants attain the ultimate height indicated. Remember, 
plants properly selected for a certain purpose in your 
garden can be kept at a desired height and width by 
occasional pruning, so you too, who have a small 
garden, can enjoy many fine plants and trees.
