ECCLES 
Planting Guide 
Scotch Pine— 
Presently the most popular Pine in the 
Eastern United States. Distinguished by its 
medium length needle and light green color. 
Scotch is a “must” for a beginner in Christmas 
tree growing, often developing into a beautiful 
Christmas tree with no shearing. This is espec- 
ially true when seedlings of Polish strain are 
planted. We have found this specie to be a 
slower grower in our plantings, therefore re- 
quiring very little attention to become market- 
able. 
Available in Five Sizes This Spring 
8-15”—2-2 or 2-3 transplants, Ideal, if this is 
your initial planting or you have heavy 
competition grass. 
5-10”—For all-round conditions, especially suit- 
ed for mechanical planting. 
3- 6’—The regular grade that fits so nicely into 
an established planting program. 
Red Pine— 
For certain areas, Red Pine is the ideal 
Christmas tree. However, its future timber 
value, which at present is believed to exceed 
other Pine in this area, is the most important 
consideration. Good forestry practice is a mixed 
stand. As a result, Red can be considered in 
any planting. 
A 5-10” seedling of exceptional quality for 
this Spring. We also list a nice 2-year suitable 
for either transplanting or field planting.
