Iti Tree Planting Time in Central Florida 
EVERY SUMMER WHEN THE SUN IS BEAMING DOWN, FOLKS WANT SHADE TREES—BUT MOST SHADE 
TREES CAN NOT BE MOVED IN SUMMER. NOW IS THE TIME TO THINK OF NEXT SUMMER'S SHADE, 
BECAUSE: 
(1) TREES TRANSPLANT BETTER DURING THE DORMANT SEASON. 
(2) IT’S MORE ECONOMICAL, FOR YOU CAN GET BARE ROOT TREES DURING DECEMBER, JANUARY, 
AND FEBRUARY, AT HALF PRICE! 
(Those marked * may be moved bare root.)

IN MANY VARIETIES—ALL TESTED AND PROVEN SATISFACTORY FOR CENTRAL FLORIDA. HERE THEY 
ARE:
