Beauty Has Real Value 
Few see the interior of another’s home, while thousands 
pearance of the surrounding grounds. 
Nature provides wonderful material for outdoor decoration, flowers, foli 
berries with infinitive combinations of colors. If trees and shrubs are BEN pee ane ae 
ed and planted, a little money can not be spent in another manner to add so much 
beauty, comfort and value to the home. 
Constant study is given and effort made to find and have the best possible varie- 
ties of all plants, evergreens, flowering shrubs, berried plants and all that go to pro- 
duce newer and better landscape effects. 
This catalogue describes most of our varieties and most of. all

Renewing Old Plantings 
Styles change. New and better plants come into use. 
Mistakes have been made in the past. Many plantings are too crowded. There- 
fore, almost any planting ten years old or more needs a little working-over. Perhaps 
some plants have grown too large, or a newer, more attractive plant can be used to 
advantage here and there. 
With small cost an old planting can be renewed with greatly

Landscape Service 
One of our most important services is designing and planting of HOME GROUNDS, 
large or small. Proper consideration in the beginning will save expense and disap- 
pointment. We are glad to give complete details in advance as to cost and all matters 
connected with any particular need. 
Native Texas Material 
_ We grow more native Texas trees and plants than any other nursery. See these 
listed under BROAD-LEAF EVERGREENS, NATIVE FLOWERING SHRUBS, BULBS, 
PERENNIALS, and YUCCAS. They are beautiful, hardy, and climate-proof. 
HEDGES 
Hedges should be planted only where needed for a particular purpose, as in a 
formal garden, or as a dividing line between properties, for screening, windbreak, and 
background. All Hedge piants should be cut back half way or more when planted. The 
Privets or Ligustrums should be cut to a few inches above ground, to make them grow 
bushy. All varieties listed are evergreen.
