A GOOD FOUNDATION PLANTING IS 
A LASTING INVESTMENT 
T HE design of the house, surroundings, exposure, 
and the right choice of plant material are all 
fundamental considerations. 
Many evergreens and shrubs are not suited for 
Foundation Planting and soon grow too large and 
become unmanageable. 
BROAD-LEAF EVERGREEN SHRUBS 
B ROAD-LEAF Evergreens are right at 
home under Long Island soil conditions. 
We urge you to make use of them in foundation 
plantings. They are slow growing and rich in 
color and texture, and with a mulching of de¬ 
cayed leaves or peat moss they will do well. 
Let us help you in making up beautiful com¬ 
binations and mass effects. 
L ET us help you select the 
right plants so that your 
planting will remain in scale 
with your house and afford 
you years of lasting satisfac¬ 
tion. 
No one investment a home- 
owner can make adds as much 
to the beauty and value of a 
place as a well-designed land¬ 
scape planting. 
T> ROAD-LEAF Evergreen Shrubs 
' lend themselves very well to com¬ 
bination plantings with choice ever¬ 
greens. They are slow growing, rich in 
color and texture, and provide colorful 
flowering effects. 
Upright Japanese Yews and the 
various types of dwarf and spreading 
Yews, when combined with Broad- 
leaf Evergreens, make a splendid and 
lasting home-planting.
