(BUXUS SUFFRUTICOSA) 



There is no living thing that lends such an air of well-established hospitality 

 and permanence to a residence of Colonial or English design, as fine Old English 

 Boxwood. It furnishes for the owner an intimate sense of satisfaction, as both 

 a source of joy for coming generations, and remembrance of past years. 



Since the time of the famous English castle gardens, down through the years 

 to our own Colonial mansion grounds, and now in the present revival of 

 Colonial architecture and gardening. Boxwood takes its place as the ultimate 

 in garden ornament. 



Who can look at the fine old specimen or a massive hedge of Boxwood and 

 not let one's imagination drift back to the days when knighthood was in flower, 

 when lords and ladies graced the garden with their presence, or when duels were 

 fought in the name of honor? 



The thought of Washington at Mount Vernon brings to mind those long sweeps 

 of deep green Boxwood that Washington, the surveyor, laid out and planted 

 years ago. 



Many beautiful plants that have lived through those Colonial days, and which 

 will live for generations to come, may be seen at the Old English Boxwood 

 Company at Cockeysville. Thousands of beautiful plants of every size and 

 shape, all of them true Old English Boxwood, are on display. 



We invite all who are in any way interested in Old English Boxwood to come to 

 Cockeysville, Maryland, and at their leisure inspect this wonderful collection.
