Three Choice Evergreen Barberries 



These beautiful rare Barberries are among the best and hardiest

 of varieties recently introduced we offer these three distinct 

 varieties.

China. Has narrow toothed leaves. Very graceful. 

 Julianae. Deep green leaves with black fruits. Very hardy.

 For other Barberries see pages 114 and 122. 



Hardy Evergreen Flowering Shrubs are so named because they 

 hold their rich green foliage throughout the winter. Most va- 

 rieties are shade loving, making them ideal for foundation plantings, 

 while the gorgeous blooms and color mass of many of these 

 species are not equalled in any other outdoor plants. They 

 look well planted by themselves or in combination with Coniferous 

 Evergreens or other shrubs, always adding a touch of winter cheer. 

 Maintain a mulch of peat moss or leaves over their roots at all 

 seasons.
