Hedge + Screen - Specimen - Foundation 
HIS grand tree has more uses than any evergreen we sell. The fact that it grows rather rapidly, can be pruned 
to almost any shape desired, will tolerate both sun and shade, good color winter and summer, and is graceful, 
has made it a standout. 
While Hemlocks prefer a good, rich, moist soil, they will grow almost anywhere. Keep well watered immediately 
after transplanting. 
We have one of the largest and finest stocks in the entire country. We have a saying, 
“When in doubt plant a Hemlock.’’ 
FOUNDATION PLANTING. Few trees are better adapted to foundation work than the 
Hemlock. While it will sometimes grow rather large if not restrained by pruning, it 
still can be kept within bounds very easily. They can be shaped into columnar, pyram- 
idal or globular forms. Their graceful soft foliage is usually of good color and the trees 
will stand city conditions very well. While they prefer good soil they will grow almost 
anywhere both in shade or sun if given a reasonable amount of moisture.

Hemlock if SPECIMEN. As a specimen many consider Hemlock the handsomest evergreen in Eastern 
North America. Certainly there are few which preserve for a long time the grace, 
dignity, and beauty of the entire tree from base to tip as the Hemlock. Small or large, 
they are beautiful. If permitted to grow with little or no pruning the pendulous twigs 
drooping from the rather horizontal branches give it a form which is dignified yet 
graceful. Yes, as a specimen we recommend a Hemlock. 

HEDGE. While a great many plants have been used from time to time in making hedges, 
there is none for all-round purposes which is superior to the Hemlock. Its rich green 
color in winter or summer, softness of texture, compactness, hardiness, ability to thrive 
in shade or open exposure, freedom from disease are some of its outstanding qualities. 
Our trees have been several times transplanted, and every one is a specimen. Can 
furnish in heights of from 2 to 10 feet. Write for prices, giving distance to be planted, 
and we shall be pleased to quote special prices. 
SCREEN. While Hemlocks are usually not so rapid in growth as the Pines and Spruces, 
they will soon develop into large, compact trees. If given good soil and ample moisture, 
a screen of Hemlock will soon surprise and delight the most fastidious. There is nothing 
more beautiful or satisfactory than a planting of Hemlock, be it a single row, large 
masses, a small cluster or even a single tree
