General  Information 


OUTPOST  NURSERIES  are  growers  of  a  complete  assort¬ 
ment  of  Plant  Materials  as  listed  in  this  catalogue. 

OUTPOST  SERVICE  includes  the  supplying  of  Plant  Mate¬ 
rials  at  our  Nurseries;  delivery  to  the  client's  property,  or 
delivery  and  planting  by  an  experienced  Planting  Crew  in 
charge  of  a  Landscape  Foreman. 

OUTPOST  SERVICE  also  includes  assistance  in  design;  the 
selection  and  arrangement  of  materials,  and  advice  on  the 
culture  and  maintenance  of  Trees  and  Plants.  Frequent  in¬ 
spections  are  made  of  our  recent  plantings  without  cost  or 
obligation  to  the  client. 

OUTPOST  PLANT  MATERIALS  AND  SERVICE  are  available 
to  the  client  either  directly  or  through  a  Landscape 
Architect. 

SELECTION— Cli  ents  are  cordially  invited  to  personally 
select  their  Trees  and  Plants. 

PRICES  in  this  catalogue  cancel  all  previous  listings,  and  are 
subject  to  change  without  notice.  Prices  include  loading  on 
trucks  at  our  nurseries,  or  are  F.O.B.  our  shipping  stafion, 
and  include  packing,  except  on  material  dug  B&B,  and  on 
special  bulky  pieces,  shipped  by  freight  or  express,  for  which 
material  used  in  packing  is  charged  additional  at  cost. 

B&B — Some  Plant  Materials  may  be  planted  successfully  with 
bare  roots.  Some  Plant  Materials  of  certain  sizes  and  varie¬ 
ties  require  digging  with  a  ball  of  earth  to  prevent  the  roots 
being  disturbed.  This  ball  of  earth  is  securely  wrapped  and 
laced  in  burlap.  This  is  referred  to  as  "balling  and  burlap¬ 
ping" — B&B.  Large  and  heavy  balls  are  mounted  on  plat¬ 
forms. 

All  prices  for  balling  and  burlapping  are  based  on  what  we 
consider  a  sufficient  ball  in  proportion  to  the  caliper  and/or 
size  of  the  Tree  or  Plant. 

DELIVERIES  can  be  made  by  truck  to  almost  any  point  at  a 
moderate  cost,  depending  on  the  distance  and  quantity  of 
material.  Prompt  shipment  can  be  made  by  freight,  carload 
lots  or  less,  and  by  express. 

MEASUREMENTS— All  sizes  are  approximated  as  closely  as 
possible.  See  details  regarding  particular  group  under 
Deciduous  Trees,  Evergreen  Trees,  et  cetera. 


HARDINESS  OF  STOCK — Although  within  easy  motoring 
distance  of  New  York  City  ( turn  to  map  )  Outpost  Nurseries 
are  located  in  the  foothills  of  the  Berkshires  where  severe 
weather  is  experienced  in  the  Winter  season.  This  insures  our 
stock  being  thoroughly  acclimated  and  perfectly  hardy. 

CERTIFICATION  OF  STOCK — All  stock  is  free  of  injurious 
plant  diseases  and  insects.  Our  Nurseries  are  regularly  in¬ 
spected  by  Federal  and  State  authorities.  Certificate  of 
inspection  accompanies  each  order. 

TERMS — Thirty  days  net  to  those  whose  responsibility  is 
known  to  us,  unless  other  arrangements  are  made  at  time  of 
acceptance  of  order. 

All  accounts  are  payable  to  Outpost  Nurseries,  Inc.,  and  not 
to  individuals. 

CLAIMS — When  stock  is  not  delivered  by  our  truck,  our  re¬ 
sponsibility  ceases  upon  delivery  of  stock  in  good  condition 
to  transportation  company.  Claims  for  damage  while  stock 
is  in  transit  should  be  made  promptly  to  the  transportation 
company. 

GUARANTEE — Except  for  Roses  and  Perennials,  we  guaran¬ 
tee  to  replace  without  charge  Nursery  Grown  Plant  Material 
supplied  from  our  Nursery  and  planted  by  us,  that  dies  from 
natural  causes  within  one  year  after  planting,  provided  this 
material  has  received  normal  care,  and  provided  payments 
have  been  made  promptly  as  arranged.  This  guarantee  ex¬ 
cludes  fatalities  from  tornado,  severe  drought,  abnormal  win¬ 
ter  or  other  conditions  over  which  we  have  no  control. 

CORRESPONDENCE  —  Correspo  ndence  should  be  ad¬ 
dressed  to  Outpost  Nurseries,  Inc.,  Ridgefield,  Conn.,  and 
not  to  individuals. 

NOMENCLATURE — Recommendations  of  "Standardized

DECIDUOUS 

TREES 


Deciduous  Trees 
drop  their  foliage 
in  late  Fall  and 
Winter. 


QUERCUS  RUBRA — RED  OAK 


Except  in  such  varieties  where  heights  only  are  given, 
Deciduous  Trees  are  measured  by  their  caliper,  i.  e.,  the 
diameter  of  the  trunk  six  inches  above  the  ground  for  Trees 
up  to  six  inches  caliper.  Trees  six  inches,  or  over  in  caliper 
are  measured  one  foot  above  the  ground. 

Sizes  in  caliper  as  catalogued  include  Trees  measuring  the 
smaller  size,  or  between  the  two  sizes  given,  but  do  not 
include  Trees  measuring  the  larger  size.  Example  :  Tree 
measuring  3^  inches  rates  as  3  to  3 1/2  inches;  Tree  measur- 
ing  31/2  inches,  rates  as  3 1/2  to  4  inches. 

Heights  given  with  caliper  measurements  are  general 
averages,  and  are  approximate  only.  Where  no  caliper 
appears,  height  is  the  governing  measurement. 

Trees  not  marked  "B&B"  (  Balled  and  Burlapped  )  can  be 
moved  with  bare  roots  when  dormant.  Should  balling  and 
burlapping  be  desired  on  such  Trees,  an  extra  charge  will  be 
made  at  the  following  rates. 


2- 3  inches  caliper  .  $2.50  each 

3- 4  inches  caliper  .  4.00  each 

4- 5  inches  caliper  . 6.00  each 


See  General  Information  for  further  details 
on  balling  and  burlapping. 

Also  see  Lists,  front  of  book,  for  further  information.

CHAMAECYPARIS  —  CYPRESS 

Often  called  Retinospora;  common  name  of  this  genus  is 
Cypress,  but  is  not  to  be  confused  with  the  famous  Cypress 
of  the  South,  which  is  of  the  genus  Taxodium. 

See  Taxodium  distichum. 

Vary  greatly  in  habits  of  growth  from  tall  pyramidal  Trees 
to  low  prostrate  plants;  many  curious  and  beautiful  forms 
have  been  developed  by  propagation  from  young  Trees.  The 
Chamaecyparis  are  greatly  benefited  by  frequent  shearing 
to  develop  compact  foliage  and  to  keep  to  desired  size.

OUTPOST  PUNT  FOOD 

OUTPOST  PLANT  FOOD  is  a  perfectly  blended  and  bal¬ 
anced  formula  for  feeding  trees,  plants  and  lawns. 

Well-rotted  manure  is  primarily  organic,  but  is  expensive,  un¬ 
pleasant  to  handle,  hard  to  obtain,  often  contains  a  quantity 
of  weed  seeds  and  is  deficient  in  nitrogen,  the  element 
which  makes  green  growth.  Many  commercial  fertilizers  are 
of  chemical  origin  with  a  high  percentage  of  nitrogen,  but 
are  deficient  in  organic  matter  which  is  necessary  to  build 
up  the  soil  physically  and  feed  plants  properly  over  any 
length  of  time. 

OUTPOST  PLANT  FOOD  contains  75  percent  organic 
matter  and  is  made  of  things  plants  relish, — blood,  bone, 
fish,  cottonseed  meal,  et  cetera.  All  these  are  not  only  rich 
in  the  necessary  chemical  elements,  but  are  organic,  and,  as 
they  decompose,  feed  the  trees  or  plants  over  a  period  of 
months  and  add  humus  to  the  soil,  leaving  it  in  better  physi¬ 
cal  condition.  There  are  just  enough  chemicals  added  to 
begin  feeding  the  plant  immediately  and  give  it  the  quick 
pick-up  it  needs. 

Many  states,  including  Connecticut  and  New  York,  require 
that  samples  of  all  fertilizers  sold  in  the  state,  be  submitted 
to  the  state  Department  of  Agriculture  for  analysis.  This 
analysis  determines  whether  or  not  fertilizers  come  up  to  the 
standards  claimed  by  the  sellers.  Since  OUTPOST  PLANT 
FOOD  was  first  offered  for  sale,  it  has  consistently  tested 
higher  and  proved  much  finer  than  Outpost  Nurseries 
claim  it  to  be. 

Trees,  plants,  and  lawns  are  bound  to  do  better  if  fed  with 

OUTPOST  PLANT  FOOD.

HELPFUL  SUGGESTIONS 


About  Planting 

Start  planting  most  sizes  of  shade,  ornamental  and 
fruit  trees  as  early  in  the  spring  as  the  ground  is 
workable  —  in  the  fall  after  a  'killing"  frost. 

Start  planting  evergreen  trees  and  broad-leaved 
evergreens,  flowering  shrubs,  vines  and  perennials  a 
little  later  in  the  spring  —  a  month  earlier  in  the  fall. 

Tea  Roses  are  best  planted  in  the  spring  —  about 
April  20th  if  bare  rooted  —  during  May  and  June 
if  potted. 

Mature  shade  and  ornamental  trees  having  large 
balls  of  soil  can  be  planted  throughout  the  winter 
months. 

Burlap  covering  balls  of  soil  on  balled  and  burlapped 
trees,  should  be  removed  before  planting,  if  trees 
are  of  a  size  which  can  be  handled  easily. 

Burlap  on  large  balls  of  soil,  if  not  entirely  removed, 
should  be  freed  of  ropes  and  cut  away  as  low  down 
as  possible  after  trees  are  set  in  planting  holes  and 
properly  faced. 

Fill  planting  holes  with  water  after  trees  are  set  in 
place  and  half  the  planting  soil  has  been  replaced. 


150  OUTPOST  NURSERIES,  Ridgefield,  Conn, 


About  Planting  (  Cont.  ) 

After  settling  has  taken  place  (  20  minutes  ),  fill  in 
balance  of  soil,  leaving  this  loose  and  slightly 
depressed  toward  the  trunk  of  the  tree. 

On  larger  trees  a  water-retaining  soil  cup  is  helpful 
if  placed  just  outside  the  ball  area. 

Guy  tall  trees  with  wire  run  through  rubber  hose 
where  it  contacts  the  tree. 

This  method  is  better  than  tramping  soil  tightly 
around  the  tree  trunk,  and  it  makes  a  more  per¬ 
manent  stabilizer. 

About  Watering 

In  dry  weather  water  thoroughly  twice  a  week  and 
allow  the  soil  to  aereate  between  each  watering. 

A  hose,  lying  on  the  ground  and  running  gently 
without  a  nozzle,  for  an  hour  or  two  will  do  a  much 
better  job  than  can  be  done  by  any  other  method. 

Do  not  wet  the  foliage  of  plants  during  the  heat  of 
the  day,  as  the  sun  may  scald,  causing  discoloration, 
wilting  or  unsightly  spots. 


About  Pruning 

All  shade,  ornamental  and  fruit  trees,  as  well  as  all 
flowering  shrubs  should  be  carefully  pruned  at  time 
of  transplanting. 


OUTPOST  NURSERIES,  Ridgefield,  Conn.  151 


About  Pruning  (  Cont.  ) 

Pruning  can  best  be  done  after  the  material  has 
been  set  and  properly  faced,  as  desired  shape  can 
then  be  determined. 

No  set  rule  can  be  given  for  pruning,  as  to  the 
amount  of  growth  to  remove. 

The  principle  involved  is  the  correct  balance  be¬ 
tween  the  root  system  and  the  top  growth. 

As  the  root  system  suffers  a  shock  in  transplanting, 
the  feeding  load  should  be  lightened  by  reducing 
the  wood  in  the  top  of  the  tree  or  shrub. 

All  types  of  trees  and  plants  can  and  should  be 
pruned  (  or  sheared  )  to  some  degree,  after  estab¬ 
lished,  to  maintain  compactness  and  vigor. 

Balled  and  burlapped  shade  trees  and  flowering 
shrubs  are  more  costly  than  bare  rooted  ones,  but 
usually  need  somewhat  less  pruning  when  trans¬ 
planted  and  therefore  assume  definite  shapes  more 
quickly. 

Prune  shade,  ornamental  and  fruit  trees  in  earlv 
spring  as  soon  as  severe  weather  has  passed. 

Midsummer  and  fall  blooming  shrubs  ( types  which 
bloom  on  new  growth  )  should  be  pruned  in  early 
spring  quite  severely.  The  more  new  growth  the 
more  blooms  there  will  be..  Hybrid  Tea  Roses  also 
come  in  this  group. 


152  OUTPOST  NURSERIES,  Ridgefield,  Conn. 


About  Pruning  (  Cont.  ) 

Spring  and  early  summer  blooming  flowering  shrubs, 
climbing  and  shrub  roses,  should  be  pruned  soon 
after  blooming,  in  the  summer  months. 

Evergreen  trees  of  all  types  may  be  sheared  with 
beneficial  effect.  This  work  is  usually  done  in  the 
late  spring  at  the  time  that  new  growth  starts. 

The  fi  ne-foliaged  evergreens  should  be  sheared  at 
the  tips  —  the  coarser  types  carefully  clipped  in 
and  out  in  irregular  outline,  the  cuts  to  be  made 
just  above  branch  whorls,  where  new  growth  will 
start. 


About  Spraying 

There  are  many  prepared  sprays  on  the  market. 
They  are  designed  to  do  three  things  : 

Kill  chewing  insects  by  a  stomach  poison. 

Kill  sucking  insects  ( including  forms  of  scale  )  by 
contact. 

Control  fungus  diseases  by  application  of  a 
fungicide  previous  to  or  at  the  time  of 
attack. 

When  fighting  an  infestation,  results  will  be  surer  if 
you  can  determine  which  of  the  types  of  injury  are 
involved  and  make  sure  your  spray  meets  the 
situation.

LARGE  TREE  MOVING  (Cent.) 

With  skill  and  efficient  handling,  we  have  simplified  Large 
Tree  Moving  to  a  degree  that  makes  it  possible  for  you  to 
save  many  years  of  waiting  for  small  trees  to  mature,  and  we 
can  plant  such  trees  at  a  minimum  cost. 

An  interesting  and  informative  24  page  illustrated  brochure 
entitled  "Trees",  is  available  on  request. 

If  you  have  a  problem  involving  the  selection  and  proper 
placing  of  large  trees,  our  representative  in  your  section 
will  gladly  call  by  appointment,  and  discuss  this  problem  with 
you,  without  obligation.
