‘Flowering Shrubs 
Your shrubs from the Burr Nursery are cut back, transplanted field grown 
plants, two, three and more years old. They are produced in the famed Connecticut 
Valley, renowned for its production of quality agricultural crops. 
We welcome your inspection of these fine shrubs throughout the year either 
in the field or in our storage. The plants are propagated from both hardwood and 
softwood cuttings and rooted in our own greenhouses. All plants propagated from 
softwood are individually potted and carried in cold frames from September to 
May be fore being planted out, and are grown on for two or three years. Plants pro- 
pagated from hardwood are lined out under irrigation and carried from spring 
to fall, at which time they are placed in cold storage. The following spring the 
plants are lined out again and grown on for two or three years. 
In the field the shrubs are grown in well spaced rows, fertilized and cultivated 
to the exact extent required to assure you a healthy, hardy, thrifty ornamental. 
All Burr shrubs are cut back in the field to develop a heavier branched top and 
a more vigorous root system.
