PLANT EVERGREENS 
For Year Round Beauty 
In our climate evergreens are most 
satisfactory throughout the year. In sum- 
mer the cool greens are pleasing, while 
in winter the foliage adds warmth to a 
planting. 
We have many varieties of proven 
hardiness for your selection, all of course 
freshly dug and with the best chance of 
growing after moving.

plants you desire.
