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.
