Choice Hardy Evergreen Shrubs. 



To this class may be said to belong the true aristocrats of the Shrub family, and while 

 their wants, in the way of care, soil and location, are somewhat more exacting than their 

 more democratic deciduous cousins, the little extra preparation necessary to develop them 

 to their fullest beauty is more than repaid by the masses of bloom and by the abundance 

 of the clean, cheery evergreen foliage which is so attractive during the winter months; and 

 no matter how small your garden may be, there is sure to be a suitable spot for some of 

 this interesting class.
