A Greeting to 
Old and New Friends 
OR some fifty-six years H. V. Lawrence’s 
have supplied Hardy Plants, Roses, Shrubs, 
Evergreens and Shade Trees to adorn the home- 
grounds of both year-round and summer residents. 
In many instances members of our staff have planned 
and developed the grounds, including grading, 
lawns, terraces, driveways, tennis-courts, gardens, 
and plantings for every purpose. 
In our shops we sell Seeds and Fertilizers, Tools 
and Spray Materials, and all requisites for good 
gardening and proper maintenance. Thus, for 
many years, Lawrence’s and their Cape Cod Nurs- 
eries have provided a truly competent and com- 
plete horticultural service. 
High-quality material, skilled workmanship, 
and reasonable prices have been combined into a 
three-point policy that makes and keeps an in- 
creasing number of customer friends. It is on 
these points that we solicit your business.

Plants That Thri 
Having studied them carefully for more than 
50 years, we believe we can recommend plants 
best adapted to seaside conditions. Many plants, 
desirable inland, will not survive along the coast 
where high winds prevail and salt spray has a killing 
effect. The plants here named are well adapted to 
sea-wind exposures.

posed seashore plantings. Foliage bright shiny 
green. We have an excellent stock.
