CHAPTER XXXIII. 



SHRUBS, CLIMBERS, AND TREES. 



A place is seldom so small that a few choice shrubs 

 cannot appropriately find room, and in which climbers 

 are not desirable, while in the larger places these become 

 important to its proper ornamentation. Whether its size 

 admits of the use of trees or not, both deciduous and 

 evergreen shrubs, climbers as well as evergreen trees of 

 low growth, are indispensable. We here append a list of 

 the leading kinds in each class, but which by no means 

 exhausts the number of desirable varieties ; for the oth- 

 ers reference may be made to the catalogues of the prin- 

 cipal nurseries, where also will be found descriptions of 

 those here named.
