Evergreen Shrubs 



'^Greeyi ivalled with leaves and 

 fragra7it flowers' '—Anon. 



I O the layman, almost any small evergreen is an evergreen shrub. The term 

 shrub, however, designates the broad-leaved evergreen and the deciduous variety 

 of shrub. 



When nature in her wondrous way created the broad-leaved evergreen, she 

 made one of the most charming floral treasures man is privileged to enjoy. 

 Broad-leaved evergreens grace all landscapes. Their informal formation blends 

 beautifully with upright varieties, and gives an effect of pleasing unit}^ to an)' 

 planting. 



Evergreen shrubs play a dual role in any setting. In the spring and summer, 

 many act their parts arrayed in dresses of a thousand blossoms, while others, 

 in the fall and winter, sparkle and glisten with a myriad of brilliant berries. 



ABELIA 



ABELIA grandiflora (Glossy Abelia). 



A semi-evergreen shrub of graceful arching 

 branches bearing clusters of pinkish white 

 flowers from July until frost. The glossy green 

 leaves of the summer turn to a purplish 

 bronze in the late fall. A very good shrub 

 for foundation planting, en masse with other 

 evergreens.
