Evergreen Service 
In past years, we have shipped many hundreds of indi- 
vidually wrapped evergreens to our customers. These trees 
are carefully dug, and immediately the roots are dipped into 
thick moisture-retaining mud and then each tree individually 
wrapped in sphagnum moss. hi

express, thus you receive the trees almost overnight from 
the nursery. 
Planting these individually wrapped trees is very easy. 
The holes should be dug before the trees arrive. If soil is 
dry, fill holes twice with water and let it soak in. Plant in 
good growing soil, such as you would grow garden crops 
in. Do not expose roots to the air. Leave trees wrapped 
until ready to plant, then unwrap and put in a pail of water 
for 15 or 20 minutes. Plant immediately upon removing 
from water. 
Plant from 2 to 6 inches deeper than they were in the 
nursery. Spread out roots to their natural position. Cover 
with soil and pack the soil solid among and over the roots 
to avoid any air spaces. Leave top 2 inches of soil loose to 
prevent evaporation. 
The first season, water thoroughly regularly once a week, 
and cultivate soil around trees to keep soil free from weeds. 
This service of individually wrapping our specimen ever- 
greens is being given without extra charge.
