AUCUBA. 



Mr. Eben. E. Rexford writes the following especially for this 

 book: 



"This is a plant deserving a great deal more attention than it 

 receives. Its foliage is of the richest, glossiest green, thickly 

 spotted with yellow. For hall decoration it is as attractive as 

 any Palm. In summer it makes a most charming decoration for 

 the veranda. It does well in soil of good loam. It is one of 

 those plants which is good for years if properly cared for, in- 

 creasing in beauty as it becomes older and larger."

 they are produced in such profusion throughout the greater part of

 garden.
