The Right Time to Plant 
Plants and trees shown here can be planted in March, April and 
May. 
(Dormant trees and shrubs can be shipped earlier to south- 
ern states). Strawberry and perennial plants cannot be dug until 
our ground thaws, which is usually early April. Perennial flower 
plants, especially Mums, Dahlias, Gladiolus bulbs, thrive best in 
northern states if planting is delayed until late April or May. 
If in doubt, let us ship at proper time for your locality. Reserve 
orders early!

Emlong’s ‘’Pride-O-Mich’’ Reg. Trade Mark fruit 
trees are graded according to standards established 
by the American Association of Nurserymen. Caliper 
(diameter of trunk)—not circumference—is used 
in determining grade. The three main grades are 
5/16 in., 7/16., and 9/16 in. caliper, with a few 
trees 11/16 in. up caliper. The height is not im- 
portant. In Cherry, Plum and Pear trees branching 
is not important. Height and branching varies in 
Peach, Pear, Cherry, etc. Therefore, caliper is the 
only fair way of grading most fruit trees.
