The Edgewood Avenuat cars direct to the nursery from the Railroad Station, and by transfer frovsés transfer points. Parties autoing, driving or wheeling to the nursery will find West Chapel Street the best route, turning to the right at either Central or Alden Avenue. EARLY ORDERS. To one familiar with the rush at the packing season, it must | be obvious that it is impossible to fill an order requiring much time in its prep-! aration on short notice without doing an injustice to others who have their | orders previously booked. In fairness to all, we have adopted the practice of | filling orders in the rotation received, unless orders are received far enough | ahead of the packing season, with instructions to ship at a given date, so that | we can arrange a special shipping date. So we again say—place your order as | far in advance of shipping as you possibly can, stating when you would like stock | sent. IMPORTANT NOTE. During March, April and May there are intervals when | it is quite impossible for us to devote much time to showing parties about the } nursery, as this is the most strenuous shipping period of the entire year. | TRANSPLANTING DIRECTIONS.

Genuine eonomy is many times gained by having all the work incidental to the carrying wut of a landscape problem under one contract. IMPORTANT LANDSCAPE PROBLEMS.

We seldom hear much said about the root system of a tree or plant; in fact, if the top of the plant looks shapely, little ¢s thought of it otherwise by the usual buyer; but the fact ts, its root system ts an all important feature in its economy. If a plant tis to be transplanied suc- cessfully it 1s of great import- ance that its roots have been suitably trained, and this ap- | plies especially to the larger | trees and all evergreens.

Evergreens are a specialty with us and our col- lection includes many rare and beautiful specimens as well as a large stock of the more common sorts. We are fortunate in having soil conditions very favorable for their development, both of top and root. We transplant and root prune all our ever- greens frequently, which practically insures their ’ successful transplanting, even of the larger speci- ~ mens. How to Ship Evergreens. We recommend hauling by teams when delivery is within economical distance. Small orders to dis- tant points can be boxed for shipping by freight or express, but where a number of specimen trees are to be sent, we advise shipping in bulk in car lots; this saves the cost of boxing and insures their arrival without injury. We gladly advise, if requested, the shipping method we recommend for individual ship- ments. Prices of Evergreens. “ See following pages for prices of the usual sizes. The prices of specimens will vary with each plant, as Weeping Norway | they vary greatly in individual merit. It is desirable Spruce.

HE great beauty of the broad leaved evergreens makes them most valuable for gardening purposes. Many are among our most -spectacular and gorgeous flowering shrubs, while their broad, attractive leaves show out most effectively during the portion of the year when many trees and plants are without foliage. There is practically no end of the charming results that can be gained by the liberal use of this class of plants. Groupings generally give most attractive effects and the plants themselves do much better when planted this way. Good, fertile loam should always be used in preparing for this, class of plants. Sufficient water should be supplied at least until they become well established so that they will not suffer from dry- ness. This does not necessarily mean frequent watering.

Tue Etm Crry Nursery Co., NEw Haven, Connecticut, Flower Clusters. Rose-Bay (Rhododendron Maximum.) : This native broad-leaf strictly hardy evergreen affords splendid opportunity for no end of charm- ing effects. In large public parks and private estates they can be used by thousands, and even within the more restricted area of the usual city lot many chances for their liberal use are sure to arise. This beautiful Rhododendron is not only perfectly hardy but thrives luxuriantly even in the shady corner and under trees, and in June is a mass of lovely soft pink flowers similar in color to our well-known mountain laurel. _It will develop into a nice individual specimen, but is most happy and effective when planted in generous masses. Our stock is collected high up on the table lands of the Allegheny Mountains in Pennsylvania, where it is so very cold and exposed to such severe weather conditions that even the native trees are dwarfed in growth.

Hardy Herbaceous Plants to year and whose tops die annually to the ground are clas- sified under this heading. It includes such splendid garden plants as Pzonies, Iris, Larkspurs, etc. The great ease with which these plants can be grown and their great variety of color and form and season of bloom makes them indispensable for the garden. Of late years, there has been a steadily increas- ing demand for this class of plants as well as a great improve- ment in the varieties, so that they now make an important feature in the business of many nurserymen. Weare making them a specialty at the nursery, growing them in large quantities out in the open fields under the most favorable conditions. The classification is the one adopted by Prof. L. H. Bailey in the Cyclopedia of American Horticulture.

I regard them a distinct acquisition and hope to get more another season.” ; _ From photo showing freedom of bloom of 4 * Japanese Iris. (Iris Kaempferi or Laevigata.) This splendid type of Iris is one of the most important of our strictly hardy per- manent garden plants.
