mountains at somewhat too late a time 

 in the season. These plants were not 

 located in their permanent beds until 

 the middle of June. Experience derived 

 from this venture seems to indicate that 

 it is safer to procure thrifty young nurs- 

 ery-grown stock than to place reliance 

 on overgrown plants brought in from 

 the wild. 



Other Varieties. 



Two other broad-leaved evergreens 

 which have done well at the Ohio sta- 

 tion are Mahonia aquifolia and moun- 

 tain fetter-bush, or Andromeda flori- 

 bunda. The mahonia has good foliage 

 quite similar to that of holly, making a 

 plant three to five feet high that is 

 rather spreading in outline. Numerous 

 small yellow blossoms borne close to 

 the stems are succeeded in autumn by 

 conspicuous blue berries. The mahonia 

 is an excellent thing that can only be 

 grown in shade, unfortunately, as undue 

 exposure to sunlight and consequent 

 freezing and thawing in winter causes 

 unsightly browning of the foliage. 

 However, the plant is perfectly hardy 

 and in spring quickly puts out a new 

 growth of leaves. The mountain fetter- 

 bush is an interesting iron-clad subject 

 whose leaves are not browned or injured 

 any way in winter, even when exposed 

 to full sunlight. The plant is a low, 

 compact, round-headed one whose bloom 

 spikes, closely resembling those of lily 

 of the valley, appear in autumn and 

 burst into full flower early in spring. 



For carpeting under the shade of trees 

 the familiar, old-fashioned myrtle, 

 Vinca minor, and Evonymus radicans 

 are two valuable vines. Pachysandra 

 terminalis is ah excellent perennial 

 plant, spreading slowly, that furnishes

a neat mat of good foliage throughout 

 the year. Except in sheltered nooks and 

 corners on north or west walls, English 

 ivy has not given satisfaction in this 

 country, but when protected by a mulch- 

 ing of straw, leaves or evergreen boughs 

 it is sometimes utilized as a covering for 

 graves. A new plant which, it is 

 thought, may to some extent supply the 

 need for a satisfactory evergreen wall
