WIRING BALLS ON SPECIMENS 
On Trees and Shrubs dug B&B where larger than a 24 inch 
_ Ball is required to handle the plant, we recommend wiring the 
balls as a safety measure or extra precaution for handling. 
To properly Wire the Balls, we recommond that 26 to 30 inch 
Hog Wire fence be securely wrapped around the Balls after they 
are dug and burlapped. Where we ball and deliver quantities 
of Live Oaks and other Specimens in Trees and Shrubbery 
without wiring, we consider the wiring a further precaution 
and a good investment for the Customer. Price for wiring 
Trees and Shrubs is given elsewhere in this Catalog.
