About Trees

We have had fifty years experience in the
nursery business and believe we know as much
about it as any other person.
Agents for foreign nurseries tell the people
that the reason we undersell them is because we
sell inferior stock.
As a reply to that, will forfeit 500 if any
body will produce finer stock than / have got,
and my stock includes 5000 fine Keifer Pears
and large stock of all fruits of best varieties.
Also 5000 fine large Norway Naples, and other
shade and evergreen trees.
Also o large stock of the best varieties of
Asparagus plants.
My California Privit, a fine hedging, gives
excellent satisfaction.
Visitors courteously received.
