ORNAMENTAL SHRUBS B. F. Barr Nurseries 



Flowering Shrubs For Any Purpose 
“Will Grow” shrubs are sturdy, well-rooted plants with a bushy top of numerous branches. They 
have been nurtured long enough in our nurseries to gain size and vigor, so that they will prove particu- 
larly dependable and desirable. 
How to Plant Shrubs to Obtain Best Results 
Cut the tops back about one-third before planting. Be careful -not to have roots exposed to air or 
sun at any time. 
The important point in planting is to have the hole large enough to accommodate the roots without 
crowding, and to get. the soil well worked in among the roots. Space the larger growing Shrubs 5 ft.. 
apart, medium growers, 4 ft., low growers, 3 ft. 
After planting always water abundantly and apply a mulch to serve as a protective covering.
