We bring you our sincere greetings once again as 1946 is 
started on its way toward a peaceful and amazing year. 
Amazing it will be, as the genius and ingenuity born out of 
war years, and scientific research which has brought per- 
haps 25 years down to four, brings to the American people 
new ideas and products never before believed imaginable. 
Research has been continued at a swift pace during these 
times concerning plant life, and as years of peace come 
before us, new varieties and new plant material will be offered. 
As these hybrids come into being, the older, but still good, 
plants will gradually move to the background, and Select 
Nurseries are proud that they will be able to bring to garden- 
lovers new things of beauty and color. We are constantly en- 
deavoring to bring improvements before the public, and will 
continue to do so as soon as new stock becomes available from 
Our propagating and research departments. 
Our little catalog this year will be an innovation, inasmuch 
as we have purposely omitted prices. We believe that price is 
a small item when quality is demanded. Those of you who 
have been our valued customers and friends for many years 
will know that our prices have always been fair and reason- 
able. We have constantly been below many other nurseries in 
price, while quality has never been lowered. To those of you 
who have not visited us as yet, may we extend to you an 
invitation. You will find that ‘Select’ means quality, and that 
on price you will never go wrong. 
It was only after considerable thought and discussion that we 
arrived at this decision. Plant material is still scarce, and the 
chance still remains for situations to be changed overnight; 
so we thought it only fair that instead of changing prices to 
meet these changes, we would omit them entirely. Prices are 
yours for the asking upon request. 
Only by your seeing our plants in the nursery, can you be 
sure of the beauty and color. We have used only a few lines 
for description, and naturally cannot do justice to any shrub, 
tree or other plant. Please keep that in mind if your plant 
does not bear out the same height, etc., as it grows in your 
garden, varying; conditions will change descriptions. We are 
at your service, and will try our utmost to aid you in any 
problem. 


WE ARE A “PINK TAG’ NURSERY. Our complete 
stock is regularly inspected, and proper pest con- 
trol is practiced at all times. 

SELECT NURSERIES give no warranty, expressed or implied, as to description, productiveness, or any other mat-
