sidered in buy-

Ours are ac- 
climated and 
freshly dug. 
@ Foundction eu grand tree has more uses than any Evergreen we sell. The fact that 
it grows rather rapidly, can be pruned to almost any shape, will tolerate 
® Hedge 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 immediately 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.’’ 
FOUNDATION PLANTING 
Few trees are better adapted to foundation planting than the Hemlock. While it will some- 
times grow rather large if not restrained 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 reasonable amount of moisture.

HEDGE 
While a great many plants have been used from time to time in making 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 partial shade or open exposure, freedom from disease are some of its 
outstanding qualities. Our trees have been transplanted several times, and every 
one is a specimen. Can furnish in heights from 2 to 6 feet. Should be planted 
3 feet apart or more, depending on size. 
SCREEN 
While Hemlocks are usually not quite 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 delight 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 beautiful. If permitted to 
grow with little pruning the pendulous twigs drooping from the rather horizontal 
branches give a form which is dignified yet graceful. Yes, as a specimen we 
recommend a Hemlock.

I would like to express my appreciation for the work you did and the manner 
in which it was done as it was the most pleasant and satisfactory performance 
of the contract that I encountered in the construction of my home.
