A FINE SELECTION OF HARDY 
VERMONT GROWN SHRUBS 
We suggest looking around your garden very carefully. Do you see any overgrown shrubs 
or large cumbersome bushes. These can easily detract from the beauty of your landscape. The 
long roots take a great amount of much needed moisture from other plants and of course 
probably cast shade where sunlight is needed. Such shrubs should be removed as quickly as 
possible. Give your garden this much needed “cleaning up” by removing this overgrown and 
undesirable material and at the same time give yourself the pleasant sensation of having acquired 
an entirely new picture in your garden. 
NOTE: We make a small 25¢ extra charge for balling shrubs from June 1st to September 15.
