MOONS  EVERGREEN  SHRUB 
HEMLOCK  SPRUCE  Continued 
plantings  of  large  evergreens.  Hemlocks  succeed 
well  in  almost  any  soil,  but  prefer  most  a  good  loam 
that  is  moist  rather  than  too  dry.  Hemlocks  with- 
stand shearing  so  well  and  become  so  dense  and 
compact  when  subjected  to  that  treatment,  that 
they  may  be  used  wherever  a  small  tree  is  wanted, 
or  in  hedges.  For  this  purpose  no  other  evergreen  is 
better  adapted,  because  it  becomes  impenetrable  as 
well  as  neat  and  attracti\''^,  and  may  be  kept  low  or 
allowed  to  grow  into  tall  hedges  or  screens.

EVERGREEN  SHRUBS 
HESE  "Broad-Leaved  Evergreens"  are  being  used  more  and  more  each  year,  becau-e 
they  are  so  desirable  and  effective  in  all  landscape  work.  Their  heavy  leaf  masses 
meet  the  demand  for  fresh  green  foliage  to  enliven  and  cheer  the  bare  aspect  of  de- 
ciduous trees  and  shrubs  in  Winter.  But  best  of  all  is  the  magnificent  display  that 
most  of  them  make  when  in  bloom,  especially  the  Rhododendrons  and  Kalmia>. 
Another  desirable  quality  most  of  them  have  is  a  fondness  for  shady  places,  so  that 
they  meet  a  large  demand  in  beautifying  these  spots,  which  are  usually  thought  ^(> 
difiicult  to  adorn.  As  a  rule,  they  transplant  easily,  are  quite  hardy,  give  immediate 
results  and  are  altogether  very  satisfactory  things  to  use.
