EVERGREEN* SHRUBS.

a shady border to root. Do this in February, in 

 preference to October, as every thing roots earlier 

 from spring operations. You may also plant cut 

 tings in June, but keep them moist and shady. 



October is a good month for taking up suckers of 

 lilacs, roses, &c., and for all sorts of transplanting 

 in its varieties. It is also the month to transplant 

 the layers of such shrubs as were laid in the pre 

 vious October. 



I subjoin a list of hardy deciduous shrubs and 

 evergreens, not too tall to admit into a moderately 

 sized flower garden.
