EVERGREEN TREES 
B. F. Barr Nurseries 

When To Plant All Kinds of Nursery Stock 
Coniferous and Broad-leaved Evergreens 
Evergreens transplant best during the Spring 
months, before and just as new growth is beginning, 
or for several months following August 1 when the 
new growth is completed and has become sufficiently 
hardened. (March 15 to June 15, and August 1 to 
December 20.) 
Deciduous Trees, Shrubs and Vines 
From the time the ground opens in the Spring un- 
til the plant starts growth, and again from the time 
the wood is ripened and the leaves begin to fall in 
the Autumn until the ground is frozen. (March 10 
to June 1 and October 1 to December 20.) 
After June 1 planting of Trees and Shrubs can 
still be continued if Balled and Burlapped plants are 
used. For this there is an extra charge of 20c each 
for Shrubs. Cost of Balling and Burlapping of 
Trees depends on size as per schedule given on 
Page 24. Where B. & B. is stated there is no extra 
charge. 
Large trees are moved with safety during the en- 
tire Winter. 
Grass Seed 
Spring or Autumn. (March 10 to May 20, and 
August 1 to October 10.) 
Perennials 
Spring or Autumn. (April 1 to June 1, and Sep- 
tember | to November 30.) 

Allow reasonable time for filling orders re- 
ceived during the shipping season, as orders
