Evergreens 
No planting is complete without some evergreens. 
Here where the winters are long we need what 
evergreens alone can best give us, twelve months 
of complete beauty and service. 
Arbor Vitae—Pyramidal, as it grows it holds its 
pyramidal shape and keeps a good green color all 
winter. Should be watered good in late fall to 
help prevent sunburn in early spring. Does best 
on the east and north side of a house. Price each, 
3-3% feet, $6.00. 
Arbor Vitae, Siberian—Grows naturally in a 
round shape, but is easily trimmed. It is our 
favorite for foundation planting, very suitable 
for planting’ one on each side of the steps. Real 
hardy. 24-30 inch, each $5.00; 9% to 12 inch, 75 
cents. 
Dundee Juniper—Pyramidal shape, good green 
color in the summer turning to a nice purplish 
color in the winter. 3-3% ft. each $7.00. 
Pathfinder Juniper—Another pyramidal form with 
a bluish color, even in the winter time. Requires 
more trimming than the Dundee. 214-3 ft., each 
$6.00. 
Mugho Pine—The best of the dwarfs. Can be 
trinimed to any shape. Should always be pruned 
just after it has made most of its growth in June. 
Otherwise it will get too open and coarse. All the 
junipers that are used for foundation planting 
need regular pruning at least once a year in order 
to maintain their compactness and prevent their 
growing too tall. This is easily done with a 
sharp scissor. Price of Mugho Pine, balled and 
burlapped, 18-24 inch, $4.50, 24-30 inch, $5.00. 
Bare root, 12-18 inch, $3.00. 
Scotch Pine—Grows fast, as much as two feet 
a year. Excellent for background where there is 
plenty room. 18-24 inch, balled. and_ burlapped, 
each $2.50, 24-80 inch, $3.50. 
Colorado Spruce—Does not come true to color 
from seed, some are dark green, some a little 
blue, and about 20% are blue. Hence the higher 
price ot the blue ones. We have one of the largest 
stocks in the state and invite you to look them 
over and choose your own. Price of Colorado 
Blue, 24-30 inch, each $6, 30-386 inch, $8, 3-4 ft., 
$10.00. Medium Blue, 18-24 inch, $4, 24-30 inch, 
$5.00, 30-56 inch, $6.00, 3-4 ft., each $7.50. 
White Spruce—Fast-growing native evergreen, 
2-3 ft., each $3.00, 3-4 ft., each $5.00.
