CONTAINER GROWN PLANTS 
We are growing more and more plants in containers - mostly one 
gallon - but we have some larger specimens in three gallon and five 
gallon containers. 
_Without a doubt, this is the ideal way to offer most species. Plants 
in containers may be planted out into the soil at any time - winter, 
summer, spring or fall. Since you get all the roots, there is no shock, 
no wilting and no setback even in the hottest days of midsummer. 
Some plants, such-as Pyracantha, that are extremely difficult to trans- 
plant even when dug with a ball and burlapped, can be handled from 
containers with complete safety. 
Regardless of season, shrubs or trees may be chosen and planted 
at the peak of their beauty. Colors and varieties may be compared. 
' Habit of growth and degree of fruitfulness can be observed. 
The Hibiscus plant covered with flowers growing in a container 
today can be growing and blooming in your yard tomorrow. That 
Holly tree or Pyrancantha complete with berries can be a part of your 
permanent landscape this afternoon, or this Kumquat laden with fruit 
can be planted now and fruit harvested as soon as ripe. 
Truly, container grown plants open many avenues of enjoyment 
and contentment. 
COME AND SEE! 
While space permits the listing of only a few of them below, we 
have many, many varieties of Hibiscus. Beginning about. April first and 
lasting throughout the summer, we have more than fifty varieties, 
hundreds of plants, dozens of colors in bloom. 
This is truly a georgeous sight and you are invited to visit with us 
and enjoy it. While these container grown plants may be put out at 
‘any time, we suggest you plant them in spring so as to have them in 
bloom the whole summer.
