This area is a natural habitat of Spruces, Pines and other Conifers. Northern Michigan produced 
some of the finest stands of Pine in North America. 
Our natural sandy loam soil, aided by our effective soil improvement methods, lends _ itself 
to the development of an exceptional root system. This, in the final analysis, is the major factor 
in determining the success or failure of any planting operation. 
Our illustrations are of typical stock dug from this years beds of both seedlings and transplants. 
The trees shown are selected, to represent as nearly as possible, the trees you will receive 
in any shipment. 
By proper seedbed spacing and soils practices, we are, each year, growing trees of higher quality 
with a root system which increases the chance of survival when the stock is transplanted.

[Our @alorads Blee Spruce are grown from the finest seed we can buy from the most reliable 
sources to produce the highest possible percentage of blue trees. 
ie cones are not all from real blue trees, and our trees are not all blue. They are the best grade 
we can make them, and are bed run and unrogued.
