ready for summer shipment, they will not be shipped 
until the spring of 753. That may appear quite far 
away; but remember the plants will be growing here, 
and they will be where they can be protected their 
first winter. 
All of our greenhouses, coldframes and prop houses 
are filled. We have more stock than ever before, but 
bookings against it are all heavier than ever before. 
Some items are completely booked for the present. 
More of most things are “‘in process,” but such items 
will not be good enuf to go along with our regular 
May deliveries. 
No one likes complaints; and, thank heavens, we 
have very few. We do, however, much prefer com- 
_ plaints about lateness in delivery to complaints about 
the quality of our stock. 
You can plant plants in bands safely until quite late, 
(See page 17) and be assured of good results. 
Place your order for your requirements, and permit 
us to deliver just as soon as the plants are ready. 
Grow Better Plants in 
Cypress Plantbands 
They Won't Steal Your Soil Nitrogen 
Wood veneer bands have a great reputation 
for doing that. Chances are that you have 
seen articles in the trade journals saying that 
many plants appear unhappy in plantbands. 
They explain it this way: wood veneer, being 
thin, decomposes rapidly. While the band is 
rotting, large amounts of Nitrogen are used 
in the process. 
Cypress bands decompose so slowly that they 
cause no nitrogen loss.
