Hemlock—One of the Few Evergreens 
Which Do Well in Shade 
HEMLOCK 
Another splendid evergreen which 
does well in partially shaded spats is 
the Hemlock. It is one of the most 
graceful growing of plants. Foliage is 
a light fresh green which always looks 
well in any planting. Will grow to 
quite large size if left untrimmed; 
however, the plants should be kept 
lightly sheared as they develop, thus 
they will become much more beautiful 
and foliage will be dense and com- 
pact. When the desired height is 
reached the trees may be kept there 
by trimming back each year. We have 
a nice block of these in 12 to 18 in. 
size at $2.50 each; 2 for $4.50.

For foundation or group planting in 
all landscape work. Retains the flat foli- 
age and lovely bright green color at all 
seasons. Grows compact and develops 
naturally into perfect pyramidal form. 
May be sheared for strictly formal ef- 
fects. 18 to 24 inch, $1.50 each; 3 for 
$4.00. 
RETINOSPORA 
(Plumed Cypress) 
Retinospora is especially valu- 
able for corner planting or for use 
in the border. Has soft plumelike 
foliage which shears beautifully. 
This will enable you to keep the 
plants to the size desired and 
they will always be close and com- 
pact in growth. May be allowed 
to grow to full size if planted 
along the side of a lawn or ina 
border planting. Fresh green color 
with rich golden cast. Needs sun 
for best color results. 12 to 18 
in., $1.50 each. ; 
PLEASE NOTE 
All of our Evergreens are . 
carefully dug to get all the 
tender roots. The soil is 
then removed and the roots 
puddled in mud; they are 
then wrapped in moss and 
paper or burlap. This method 
of packing eliminates 25 to 
50 pounds of soil, saves the 
vital fine roots, insures bet- 
ter growth and makes possi- 
ble low cost express ship- 
ments..
