Bargains in Small Plants 
Our prices are always made as low as pos- 
sible. We realize, however, that the cost of 
the better evergreens in quantity is usually 
considerable. Therefore, we offer many of the 
finer, more expensive varieties in small plants 
from pots at very low prices. To any one 
who likes to see them grow and is willing to 
wait one to two years longer for fully devel- 
oped plants, these pot plants will appeal. Send 
us list of varieties desired and we will give 
prices.
