REES and shrubs may well be thought of as the
I O groundwork, the fundamentals in garden design
vS' and home ground planting.
They provide the background, the heavier,
more permanent furniture of the garden against which
are arranged the smaller, hghter, more mobile plant
materials such as perennials and annuals.
In the case of trees especiall}', the thought of per¬
manence should underlie the selection of the stock and
its distribution in the plan. Also adequate provision
should be made for the growth of future years by
judiciously grouping and placing the different speci¬
mens and species.
Slii’ubs can be used to fill in between plantings of
young trees, thereby giving them protection, and they
can also be used to create their own charming effects.
Of course, if left undisturbed, many of them will even¬
tually^ become massive in stature and dense in structure,
but if desired, they can be trimmed, sheared or even
cut back severely. IMore than that, they can be lifted
and moved as often as a rearrangement of the gardens
s called for.
A convenient first division of trees and shrubs in
general is into the two well known groups of deciduous
sorts and evergreens. The former, generally speaking,
render the greatest service and create the best effects in
late Spring, Summer and Autumn, both their blossoms
and their colorful fohage being valued factors. The
evergreens make their major contribution by providing
a warm and welcome contrast against snow-covered
ground. It is principally the deciduous group that
includes most of the plants with bright colored, bird-
attracting fruits, while evergreens are the material par
excellence for foundation plantings. There are enough
exceptions to these generalities to make it interesting,
and indeed necessary, for the plant buyer to carefully
study the characteristics of the different tyqDes, species
and varieties.
For those who want to carry on such studies and
work out their order lists to meet their own, peculiar
conditions, the brief descriptions given in this catalog
have been made as clear, concise and graphic as possible ;
additional information and suggestions can always be
secured, either by^ correspondence or, better yet, by
calling at our offices.
On the other hand, for those who have definite desires
but insufficient familiarity with the plants to satisfy
them, we will gladly supply complete planting lists
made up to meet specific requirements. Quotations will
be promptly^ furnished on special plant lists submitted
by prospective patrons and any^ varieties called for but
not included in this catalog will be supphed on request.

and Evergreens
The hardy, coniferous evergreens are of great value in nearly
all ornamental plantings, as they preseive their foliage and
coloiing Summer and Winter, and add much to the beauty of
the landscape duiing that peiiod when most trees and shrubs
are without leaves. They are now largely used for foundation
plantings and give any home a dignified appearance that can¬
not be produced by any other plants.
The best time to plant them is in early Spring and from
August 15th to the end of September.
All evergreens are dug with a ball of earth, securely wrapped
in builap, which is removed when the trees are planted in
their permanent location.
Make the holes large enough to allow for the proper spread¬
ing of all roots and if the soil is poor, eniich it with some well
rotted manure. Overhead spraying duiing the hot Summer
will help them considerably, but this should be done in the
evening and not during the scorching hours of the day.
Truck deliveries arranged if quantity of plants ordered and
distance warrant it.

offered subject to being unsold on receipt of order

Evergreen Flowering
Shrubs
This section of hardy shrubs contains many varieties which
produce magnificent flowers and add agreeably to the land¬
scape. Some of them, like Rhododendrons and Pieris, aie
now largely used in foundation plantings, while others will
thrive well in shady places; and then, again, some kinds can
be used for covering rocky slopes. While Rhododendrons
will grow and develop into fine specimens, they are neverthe¬
less more effective when planted in masses.
Hardy Evergreen Azaleas
Many of the following varieties are absolutely hardy and
will withstand our most severe Winters, but some need to
be planted in sheltered places and well protected duiing the
Winter. While they like a soil containing a fair quantity of
leafmold or humus, most of them thrive in ordinary garden
soil. They do not like lime or limy soil. They make excel¬
lent subjects for rock gardens. A good mulch of leaves be¬
tween the plants and a cover of Pine or Hemlock branches
laid over them will prove sufficient protection during cold
weather.
The more tender varieties are marked with an *

Rhododendrons
These handsome broad-leaved Evergreens adapt themselves
in various locations if suitable varieties are selected.
For shady positions use the maximum varieties and for open
situations the catawbiense sorts. They should always be
planted in groups as this vdll not only protect the soil from
frost but gives them the natural conditions of their habitat.
They do not like lime or limy soil and prefer ground with an
acid condition. While they like moisture, they do not like to
be water-logged and special care should be taken to have the
ground well drained. An addition of leafmold or humus to
the ordinary garden soil will prove very beneficial.
