Western Grou 
for Western Planting 
The Rocky Mountain and Plains region comprise 
a distinct climatic area in that the higher altitude, 
limited rainfall, sudden temperature changes, and 
the length of the growing season have a definite 
influence on plant growth. Evaporation of mois- 
ture from plants is high and must have a more 
highly developed root system to maintain a normal 
growth balance. Bark and wood cells also build 
up resistance to atmosphere and temperature, 
Some varieties that do well in a lower, more 
moist climate will not adapt themselves to our 
growing conditions, and so cannot be considered. 
Fortunately, however, there are many varieties that 
have proven their adaptability here, and others are 
being tried and observed to enlarge the list of plant 
material especially suited to growing conditions in 
this area, both in fruit and ornamental stock. We 
take pride in participating in the leadership in 
testing plant material and bringing new proven 
hardy items to our western trade so that our cus- 
tomers may have the best nursery stock obtainable. 
There can only be one conclusion in obtaining 
the greatest value in your purchase of nursery 
stock; if it is acclimated, correctly grown and prop- 
erly handled you will realize the maximum results 
in transplanting; if the varieties are adapted you 
may expect a successful continued growth.
