SKillenmeyer’s Beautiful Cvergreens 
“The Green-Robed Senators of Mighty Woods’—Keats 
[OR beauty both winter and summer, the Evergreen has no equal. Succeeding in almost any 
soil, with their range of color, form and habit of growth they find a place in almost any land- 
scape. Our trees are all several times transplanted, dug with a ball of earth, and the finest to 
be had. 
Abies - Fir 
“T remember, I remember 
The Fir trees dark and high; 
I used to think their slender tops 
Were close against the sky.”’—HOOD 
ABIES concolor (Silver or White Fir). The best of all 
the Firs. A native of the Rockies and requires a 
well-drained location. Has a deep root system and 
will withstand droughts and heat better than most 
Evergreens. The color ranges from a blue-green to 
a distinct blue. Not quite as showy as the Blue 
Spruce but a much better tree for Southern condi- 
tions. Sometimes irregular in growth when young but 
develops into a compact conical specimen. The 
needles are arranged around the branches. We con- 
sider it one of the outstanding evergreens in culti- 
vation for either a specimen or grouping.
