All our Evergreens have been frequently moved in the nursery rows, some as many as three or four times. This moving process gives us a plant with a mass of fine fibrous roots, and if ordinary care is used in transplanting, every one should live. Each plant is lifted separately with a ball of earth, and the roots, with ball, carefully wrapped in burlap. This is the only safe way to handle Conifer- ous Evergreens. The weight of the balled plants is considerable, from 30 to 150 lbs, each, owing to class and size. Shipments of balled evergreens, therefore, should go by freight if possible, as often the express charges will amount to as much as the invoice. We can ship by freight with perfect safety, even though a month or more in transit. NOTE—We invite correspondence regard- ing larger sizes of Conifers than offered herein as we have a limited stock of some varieties. ARBOR-VITAE, Chinese (Biota orientals).
