SUCCESS IN TRANSPLANTING TREES AND SHRUBS 
Building and Developing Roots 
Success in transplanting trees and shrubs has its foundation in the care 
given them in the nursery. Our stock is transplanted often to insure a fibrous 
root system close to the p'ant. The soil at our nursery is of -a nature to en- 
courage the formation of masses of fibrous roots. This makes for a healthy 
and vigorous plant or tree which, when transplanted from our nursery to your 
garden has with it the reot system to reestablish it with a minimum degree of 
shock or setback 
Transplanting Evergreens 
All evergreens are carefully dug with a solid ball of soil which is wrapped 
with burlap and properly tied to prevent breaking. The rich humus soil in 
our nurseries is especially adapted to this method of handling, thus allowing 
the transplanting of our evergreens at any time of year with the utmost 
safety. All plants and trees with roots ba!led in soil should be planted in their 
burlap, so as not to break the ball of earth. The top of burlap may be 
turned back or cut off 
water to enter the ball 
after filling in around the ball with soil to allow 
Transplanting Deciduous 
Deciduous or leaf dropping ornamental trees, deciduous flowering shrubs, 
fruit and nut trees and roses are handled bare root when dormant (ba!led 
when they are in leaf). Because of our method of making a fibrous root 
system close to the plant or tree even large trees are moved with the great- 
est success and establish themselves rapidly in your garden. This class 
when handled bare root shou'd have the packing material all removed and 
be planted with good soil firmed in with water. If you are too late to buy 
them dormant we can supply most of this class growing in containers. In 
our soil, most varieties can be balled and burlapped even when in soft growth 
in late spring and summer with entire safety. 
Securing Quality Plants 
Size alone does not ind’cate true value in plants, shrubs and trees. The 
only accurate way to evaluate is to see the quality of the stock. We quote 
only first class plants, developed through scientific handling, including fre- 
quent transplanting and trimming to become specimens in their class. This 
affords our customers additional value in luxuriance, symmetry, compact- 
ness, Vitality and safety in moving, unattainable in plants not thus handled.
