When To Plant 
In some localities and for some 
varieties Fall planting is prefer- 
able. Other planters prefer plant- 
ing trees in the Spring. Our Spring 
season begins in late March and 
continues until about May 10th or 
15th. Our fall season starts about 
September Ist and continues until 
about November 12th. 
Deciduous trees and shrubs do 
well if planted from October 15th 
until November 15th. 
For perennial flowers, ferns and 
and plants, Fall, planting is pref- 
erable—August to October. They 
do well planted in the Fall and 
will be in the ground ready to re- 
spond to the first growing urge 
in the Spring. 
Cuttings of trees and _ shruhs 
must be planted in the Spring only 
and as early as. practical. 

The American Arbor Vitae is very hardy and useful for landscape 
development. It stands trimming well and is much planted for ever- 
green hedges, but if grown as a tree it gets to be of good size, perfect 
shape and beautiful without trimming or pruning. It is sometimes 
planted in rows a few feet apart and allowed to grow without trim- 
ming or cutting back. The branches. will interweave and make a most 
efficient windbreak. The fern-like foliage is very dense, soft and of a 
deep green color. In beginning its growth the arbor vitae is more like 
the junipers and different from othe coniferous evergreens. Our seed- 
lings are grown from seeds collected in northern Wisconsin, the best 
type available, and we have growing a very large number of all sizes 
listed and can fill orders promptly. This tree does not start its 
growth as early as Spruce and Pines and can be shipped from April 
until June and September until November. Nurserymen and florists 
can grow from our four to eight inch size at very reasonable prices. 
No collection of evergreen trees is complete without American Arbor 
Vitae. Seldom attacked by insects; the foliage contains cedar “oil 
which protects and preserves it, retaining its color and remaining 
soft and pliable for weeks after being cut from the branches, the 
sprays are used by florists for decorative purposes.
