FALL 1935
Evergreens add winter beauty to the planting
PLANT THIS FALL
Experience has shown there is a big advantage in fall
planting of almost all varieties of hardy trees, shrubs
and flowers. The earth becomes settled about the roots,
new feeding rootlets are formed before severely cold
weather, and they are ready to start into growth with
the first coming of spring. In the fall the assortment is
most complete, and the work is out of the way before
the spring rush begins.
Planting of Peonies and Irises may begin in early Sep¬
tember, other Hardy Flowers and Evergreens usually
latter September or early October, Shade Trees and
Shrubs when we have good frosts that start the leaves
dropping naturally. Strawberries, Cannas, Dahlias and
Gladiolus will be quoted in the spring catalog

Hardy Evergreens
Pfitzer Juniper thrives in almost every location
Our evergreens are grown with plenty of room and are com¬
pact, well filled trees of their size and variety. They have been
transplanted and root pruned and are well rooted. They are
not grown rapidly and soft but are firm and easily transplant¬
ed. They are liberally graded. With the exception of the “mail
size’’ they will be dug with a ball of earth wrapped in burlap,
termed “balled and burlapped” or B. & B.
MAIL SIZES, POSTPAID
Our mail size are transplanted, sturdy little trees, not balled
and burlapped as these sizes do not require it. The value of
trees cannot be shown in a catalog. A mail size evergreen may
be worth a dime or a dollar. It may be a spindling little tree
that requires petting, or a well grown tree that with reason¬
able care gives good results. We intend to give you your mon¬
ey’s worth. Plant these mail sizes firmly, water them as the
season requires and they should give you good results. They
are not yet old enough and large enough to give the immedi¬
ate effect of balled and burlapped sizes. Give them time to

Foliage tall, narrow, blade- like; stems slender, graceful, with
several buds to the stem: large flat flowers, usually with a gold
blotch, blooming later than the Liberty Irises. Plant in full
sun in any good mellow loam that does not become excessive¬
ly dry; very effective along a stream or pool. Water must not

aled, single.

Peonies are Easily Grown
Hardy as the oak, Peonies are so easily grown that little
need be said. Often, in neglected gardens, one sees large
clumps that have flourished and bloomed for years. Yet they
amply repay all attention given them. They thrive in almost
any good, well drained soil, are best in full sun but succeed
with shade part of the day. Plant 3 feet apart. The early va¬
rieties usually begin blooming here about May 5 to 8.
The name and date in parenthesis is the originator or intro¬
ducer and date of introduction. The guards are the wide outer
petals. The type of flower is designated as follows:
Crown. Wide center or crown petals with narrower, shorter
petals forming a collar or ring between them and the guards.
Bomb. Center petals of uniform width but narrower than
the guards and forming a globe within the guards.
Semi -rose. Flowers that would be classed as rose but for an
occasional pollen bearing stamen.
Rose. Perfectly full, all petals wide, no stamens. The cen¬
ter petals may not be a wide as the guards but if quite dis¬
tinct it would be a bomb.
