EVONYMUS 



The trailing Evonymus are particularly desirable for their dense ever- 

 green foliage and extreme hardiness, some varieties on account of this tak- 

 ing the place of the English Ivy for wall covering, others that of the box- 

 V7ood as an edging plant. 



Radicans. Deep green foliage, useful for covering low foundation walls, 

 or may be clipped the same as box-wood for an edging plant. 30 cts; 

 each; $2.50 per doz.; $18.00 per 100. 



Radicans Variegata. A beautiful small-leaved green and white varie- 

 gated form of the same habit as the type. 30 cts. each; §2.50 per doz.. 

 $18.00 per 100. 



Radicans Vegeta. (Evergreen Bittersweet). A strong-growing variety, 

 with larger leaves than the type, and producing bright orange-red berries, 

 which remain on the plant the greater part of the winter. As an ever- 

 green absolutely hardy wall cover this plant is unequalled. An enthu- 

 siastic horticultural writer predicts that it will become as popular for this purpose here as 

 the Ivy is in England. 30 cts. each; $2.50 per doz.; $18.00 per 100. 



Kewensis. A new variety with very small dark green foliage. Everyone who has seen this 

 appreciates its value as a rock plant or ground cover. It grows close to the ground, and is
