Hardy Shrubs — Hedges 



YUCCA 



Yucca filamentosa. Beautiful and distinctive 

 the year around with its broad, swordlike, ever- 

 green foliage. During July it is the glory of the 

 hardy or shrubbery border, when it throws up 

 stout flower stalks 4 to 5 ft. high, with great 

 panicles of large, drooping, lilylike, creamy 

 white flowers. It is entirely hardy and succeeds 

 everywhere. Each 50c. 



Y. filamentosa variegata. Probably the most 

 attractive of all hardy variegated plants, having 

 leaves which are broadly margined yellow and 

 assume a purple tint in Winter. Absolutely 

 hardy and grows readily in any situation. 

 Each $1.00. 



ZANTHORHIZA 



Zanthorhiza apiifolia. Yellowroot. Of very 

 dwarf growth, with handsome, airy foliage which 

 assumes a golden shade in Autumn. Bears small, 

 dark, purple flowers in drooping panicles. Splen- 

 did for use as a ground cover, especially in shady 

 locations. Bushy plants, each 30c.
