The great increase in new housing has resulted in a very widespread demand 
for ornamental trees. It is our belief that this demand will continue to be strong 
for several years, and we feel that the ornamentals in our blocks at Ellington will 
prove profitable for you. They are grown in richly fertilized soil, spaced in wide 
rows and pruned to produce a desirable form. Our ornamentals have clean, 
straight trunks and well branched heads. We have many varieties available that 
have been scarce in recent years, particularly Norway and Schwedler maple.
