 ill the catalogue of arboriculture in the succeeding book. 



Sect. III. Selections of Shruhs for imrticular Purposes. 



6515. The portimlar purjwses to which shrubs, like flowers, may be applied, are the 

 concealment of defonnities or imperfections, and the production of particular beatities or, 

 desirable effects. We shall here select the names of a few for concealing vertical and 

 horizontal deformity ; for producing an immediate effect as to bulk for producing ve- 

 getation under the shade and drip of trees ; for ornamenting water and rocks ; for form- 

 ing edges and hedges ; for diffusing agreeable odors ; for being ornamental by their 

 fruit ; and for economical or botaidcal purposes. 



SuBSECT. 1. Shrubs for concealing vertical and horizontal Deformities. 



6576. Vertical deformities may either be concealed by the rapid and tall growing sorts (Subsect. 2.), or 

 by the climbers or twiners, either deciduous or evergreen. The climbers may be nailed to a wall or fence, 

 or tied to a trellis, or allowed to climb on branches and spray ; for the twiners, tall sticks or poles are 

 necessary. 



6577. Horizontal deformities may be concealed by rapid-growing bushy plants, by allowing climbers 

 and trailers to spread over them, or by the proper trailers and creepers of the hardiest kinds, a few of 

 which are these : — 



Deciduous. Rosa arvensis, Rubus fruti- I pinus. Genista decumbens, Rhamnus | Evergreens. Rosa sempervirens, Vinca 

 cosus, Cissus hederacea, Cytisus su- | repens. I major and minor.

Shrubs of rapid and bulky Growth. 



6578. Shrubs of rapid and bullet/ growth are often desirable to produce immediate effect in laying out 

 pleasure-grounds, as well as for producing shelter, and concealing objects.

SuBSECT. 3. Shrubs ivhich thrive under the Shade and Drip of Trees. 



6579. Shrubs which grow under the shade of trees are found in practice to be a most valuable class for 

 filling up blanks in old shrubberies, or screen plantations; and thus producing greenness, variety, and a 

 healthy aspect, instead of emptiness, haggard stems of trees, or mere ghosts of plants.
