EVERGREENS (Conifers) 
Evergreens present you with a most adaptable group of plants, suitable for a variety of uses, and we mention 
a few of these uses below to help you plan your planting. 
We take particular pride in the quality of our Evergreens—in their vigor, 
shape and expert balling and burlap- 
ping (B&B). These factors make for safe, easy transplanting and quicker re-establishment in a new location. Fre- 
quent transplanting here in the nursery develops strong root systems and is one of the behind-the-scenes operations 
that makes our evergreens superior. 
Always remember that careful and wise pruning will keep your plants and trees pretty much as you want them. 
An excellent example is the Hemlocks—one of the most popular of all trees for Evergreen hedges for maintaining 
fullness and controlled height—yet if allowed to grow unpruned, it will in time, reach a height of 70 to 100 feet.

PLANTING: As a general guide to planting 
B&B plants we suggest that you: 
1. Dig hole wide and deep enough to easily 
admit the earth ball. 
2. Set the top of ball 2 inches below the surface 
of surrounding soil. Tamp in firmly without 
removing burlap. 
3. Cut burlap open at top. Complete filling in 
soil. Water twice weekly very thoroughly. 
4. Use Peat Moss liberally in the hole and 
as a top mulch, 
To aid you in selecting material most suit- 
able to your needs, we make the following list 
of suggestions—although some of our plant 
materials are omitted from the classifications 
for the sake of brevity.
