EUONYMUS. 



(See Hardy Vines and Creepers.) 



Although a native, there is perhaps no other hardy 

 shrub except the Rhododendron, that rivals this in beauty. 

 Like its first cousin. Rhododendron maximum, it retains 

 its foliage in unimpaired beauty throughout the year. Its 

 leaves, which are broad, smooth and glossy, are exception- 

 ally free from insect attack or blemish of any kind. As 

 regards hardiness, it may justly be termed "ironclad." 

 The flowers are borne in large, flat clusters, vary in color 

 from pearly white to soft, shell pink and are uniquely and 

 exquisitely formed, suggesting, both in bud and when ex- 

 panded, flowers made of certain delicate, dainty sea shells. 

 The flowers appear early in June and continue some 

 weeks.

 leaves and compact habit render it exceedingly attractive, 

 and the true variety is entirely hardy. It is of vigorous 

 growth and can be pruned into any shape that one may 

 tancy, the same as boxwood. Of untold value for group- 

 ing and for hedging. It thrives in all soils, but prefers a

 to 15 inches, each, 35c; doz., $3.50.
