EVERGREENS 
TRANSPLANTING: All evergreens we offer are dug fresh as sent out. If 
the buyer comes to the Nursery after them, which is the best way to do, they 
can be lifted directly from the row to his’truck or trailer and have a minimum 
of exposure. This is very important with those dug bare rooted. If the roots 
of evergreens once become thoroughly dry in handling or planting they cannot 
be revived, as can other trees. Failure in transplanting them is due largely 
to allowing them to become dry while planting; to not packing good mellow 
soil, or much better yet a mixture of equal parts of such soil and pulverized, 
moist peat, very firmly around the roots; or to not watering them and con- 
serving the moisture about them through the summer by frequent shallow 
cultivation or by mulching. An area 3 to 4 inches deep and 3 feet in diameter 
or as wide as the spread of the tree can be filled with pulverized peat instead of 
soil and will provide the ideal means of getting water into the soil about the 
roots and holding it. August and September are critical months for newly 
planted evergreens unless there is ample moisture. 
SPACING. For single row windbreaks plant pines and spruces 7 to 8 feet 
apart; four double rows of pines or spruces, 10 to 12 feet. For low hedges to be 
sheared, plant 18 to 24 inches apart, depending on the size of the plants. 
SOILS. Plant pines on dry or well-drained soil. All pines, and particularly 
White Pine, may be short-lived if planted in very rich soil such as an old feed 
lot, or where drainage from a feed lot runs onto them. In places where it is 
quite wet at times spruce will do better than pine and in very moist or swampy 
soil Arborvitae is best of all.
