CGsuga- HEMLOCK gg 
She ll : Purpose Evergreen E oes 
THis grand tree has more uses than any Evergreen we 
sell. The fact that it grows rather rapidly, can be 
pruned almost any shape, will tolerate both sun and 
shade, good color winter and summer, and is graceful, 
has made it a standout. 
While Hemlocks prefer a good, rich, moist soil, they 
will grow almost anywhere. Keep well watered immedi- 
ately after transplanting. 
We have one of the largest and finest stocks in the 
entire country. We have a saying, ‘’When in doubt plant 
a Hemlock.’’

Canadensis : SCREEN 
eae While Hemlocks are usually not so rapid in growth as the Pines and 
Spruces, they will soon develop into large, compact trees. If given good 
soil and ample moisture, a screen of Hemlock will soon surprise and de- 
light the most fastidious. There is nothing more beautiful or satisfactory 
than a planting of Hemlock, be it a single row, large masses, a small 
cluster or even a single tree. 
SPECIMEN 
As a specimen, many consider Hemlock our handsomest Evergreen. 
Certainly there are few which retain the grace, dignity, and beauty of the 
entire tree from base to tip as the Hemlock. Small or large they are beau- 
tiful. If permitted to grow with little pruning the pendulous twigs droop- 
ing from the rather horizontal branches give a form which is dignified 
yet graceful. Yes, as a specimen we recommend a Hemlock 
HEDGE 
While a great many plants have been used from time to time in mak- 
ing hedges, there is none for all-round purposes which is superior to the 
Hemlock. Its rich green color in winter or summer, softness of texture, 
compactness, hardiness, ability to thrive in shade or open exposure, free- 
dom from disease are some of its outstanding qualities. Our trees have 
been several times transplanted, and every one is a specimen. Can furnish 
in heights frem 2 to 10 feet. Should be planted three feet apart or more, 
depending on size. 
FOUNDATION PLANTING 
Few trees are better adapted to foundation work than the 
Hemlock. While it will sometimes grow rather large if not re- 
strained by pruning, it still can be kept within bounds very 
easily. They can be shaped into columnar, pyramidal or globular 
forms. Their graceful soft foliage is of good color and the trees 
will grow almost anywhere both in shade or sun if given a rea- 
sonable amount of moisture.
