EVERGREEN DEPARTMENT 
The list of ornamental evergreens we offer is quite complete; varieties for every section of the 
South, Southwest and Gulf Coast sections. The plants we list are young stock in most instances, full 
ef life and vigor. Plant carefully the day they are received. Water well when planting. Stake to keep 
wind from blowing plants around. You will get a lot of pleasure and satisfaction from watching these 
young plants grow and develop into lovely specimens. The five best plants for general beautification 
of home, in our opinion, are as follows: Baker’s Arborvitae, Pfitzer Juniper, Yellow Jasmine, Abelia 
Grandiflora and Waxleaf Ligustrum. Arizona Cypress and Italian Cypress are good all-areund ever- 
greens to plant as specimens in the lawn, for backgrounds, and in the case of the Italian Cypress for 
foundation planting.
