Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Hardy Ornamental Plants for the South: Trees, Deciduous Shrubs, Broad-Leaved Evergreens, Coniferous Evergreens, Vines
The ashford park nurseries have endeavored To expand and improve until now we feel that we have the finest stock of hardy ornamentals in the South. In fact, there are few nurseries in the country that are as well prepared to fill a large and varied order. For every landscape purpose we have the varieties which are best suited to fill that purpose.
IN addition TO the varieties here described we have in the nursery many rare and unusual plants _which we do not grow in sufficient quantity to warrant here giving them space.' We will be glad to Obtain for you anything that we do not-have.
The quality OF our stock is the best that can be produced. We know that you cannot afford to put anything else on your lawn. It must not only live, but thrive. We spare no ex pense or pains in growing, digging, or packing.
The plants must BE hardy. We have no greenhouse, we water only the propagating beds we fertilize only moderately, our soil is practically the same as that throughout the Piedmont belt. If a plant will grow in our nurseries - and 95 per cent of the plants we sell are grown there - it will grow on your lawn.
