GREEN RIDGE NURSERY, MADISON, OHIO 
BONSAI MATERIAL ... 
We have some excellent material for dwarfing en- 
thusiasts. These trees are perfectly healthy but 
have been bent by wind and snow, and are poorly 
shaped with crooked branches. They are still 
small so that you may readily adapt them to Bonsai 
culture. 
SCOTCH PINE 4 yr. T 6-12” 
AUSTRIAN PINE 3 yr. T 4-7” 
NORWAY SPRUCE 38 yr. T 4-8” 
DOUGLAS FIR 3 yr. T 4-8” 
COLORADO SPRUCE (mostly green) 4 yr. T 5-10” 
25c each, 10 of ore variety $2.00, 10 mixed $2.20 
When ordering other species for dwarfing purposes, such as 
hemlock, flowering quince, yews, etc., you might mention that 
you want smaller or distorted plants. If we have them we will 
send them. We never send such plants unless requested, 
however, because growers of outdoor specimens want plants 
of proper shape.
