Pictures of prop houses all look alike; but we couldn’t 
resist showing you a photo of this new 150 foot 
house completed last fall. 
Banded Plants Are 
BETTER 
We've bought, scld, grown, and planted liners grown 
in outside beds. When it was too dry, or too cold, or 
too hot, cr too wet, we couldn’t dig them, and our 
custcmer couldn’t get his ground ready. Many times 
we had to ship the stuff with new growth already 
started. 
That meant squawks about mortality percentages. 
Then, the stock from beds always has a “transplant- 
ing shock” to cvercome. No matter how carefully 
they were dug, you always have some split up 
through the stems, and others with roots cut too 
short. 
Banded plants don’t have these problems! All the 
roots go along in the band, and they can be shipped 
rain cr shine. Then, because they have no “trans- 
planting shock” to overcome, they usually outgrow 
much larger liners from beds.
