EVERGREENS 
Evergreens are always in favor for landscape work, their 
many colors of foliage making a striking background for the 
brilliant colors of summer. It is in the winter, however, when the 
deciduous shrubs and trees have dropped their leaves, that 
evergreens are most appreciated; then their beautiful shades 
of green add color to an otherwise barren landscape. 
There are evergreens for foundation planting, softening the 
sharp angles of homes and other buildings; for accents in the 
garden; for lawn specimens; and for color and screening in the 
border plantings. The colors vary from bright blue, brilliant 
yellow and gold to darkest green. Evergreens are probably 
most interesting in the late spring when the brightly colored, 
soft, new growth appears, in contrast to the color of the old 
foliage; then gradually the colors blend as the season 
progresses. 
Evergreens are dug ‘balled and burlapped’’—’’B&B"—that 
is, with a sufficient amount of earth in which they grew, undis- 
turbed and bound around the roots securely with burlap. 
NOTE:—Plant evergreens with the foliage at least two feet 
away from the building. 
Sizes given below, in the case of upright growing trees, refer to the height 
of the tree; in the case of spreading types, they refer to width or spread.
