LANDSCAPE SERVICE 
Proper Plant Materials Greatly Accent the Beauty 
of any Home---Modest or Pretentious 



The Photograph Above Illustrates Most Impressively the Value of Combining Evergreens, Trees 
and Shrubs in a Harmonious Planting. 
Here the beauty of the home is not hidden but rather enhanced by its complete and 
beautiful setting of well-selected plant materials properly arranged. 
What otherwise would be monotonous formality is effectively broken by the planting of 
Dwarf Evergreens under the windows, with taller varieties against bare walls, giving an 
atmosphere of warmth in Winter and coolness in Summer. 
The trees in their beauty of irregular form give added grace, and at the same time 
furnish shade in the heat of Summer. Groupings of Shrubs offer a continuous bloom as a 
joy from frost to frost. 
The drive is screened from the entrance view, and a setting of Evergreens prevents objec- 
tionable views from the rear of the house or service yard. 
Completing the picture is the Barberry Hedge planted along the front and sides, rich in 
the brilliance of its colorful leaves and berries in the Fall.

Please send photograph of property, if possible 
State whether you want Evergreens or Shrubs for foundation planting; if you have 
any preference in varieties to be included anywhere; when you contemplate planting, 
about how much you wish to expend for plants, so we can suggest a planting that will 
be in keeping with your individual requirements and wishes, and that will be practical 
for your grounds by flourishing under the very conditions existing thereon and in com- 
plete harmony with the entire environment. 
For large operations requiring surveying and much detail work, a charge 
to cover the actual cost for making plans, traveling expenses, etc., will be made. 
“The home to be loved must be made lovely.”
