FOR GARDENING SUCCESS 
EBON eke EEES@INES 
COLORADO GROWN 
GUARANTEED QUALITY NURSERY STOCK 
Care after planting has a lot to do with it, but often 
gardening success is pre-determined by the quality of the 
trees, shrubs, and plants you buy. We put forth the ‘“‘ex- 
tra effort” to supply that quality. 
Most people do not think of the nursery business as the 
comprehensive year-round job that it is. Propagating and 
correctly growing various kinds of plants to salable size 
requires time, not a small] amount of horticultural science, 
and painstaking attention to details. Evergreens and 
shade trees particularly need a great deal of care when 
they are in the formative stage. Summer and fall find 
our growers working long hours in the fields, irrigating, 
cultivating, and doing corrective trimming, so that the 
eventual mature plants will be a source of pride to us 
and to our customers. 
Trees and shrubs in our nursery grow on rich sandy 
loam which produces an abundant fibrous root system. 
They are dug and delivered with adequate roots so that 
they will ‘take hold” quickly after transplanting. Many 
varieties are even “power-dug” with special machine 
equipment to insure complete roots. 
Practically without exception the varieties we offer are 
Colorado grown in our own nursery. Roses and small 
fruits are an exception because they can be more success- 
fully propagated in a climate where moist conditions 
prevail.
