Evergreen Shrubs 



HESE "Broad-leaved Evergreens" are being used more and more each year, because 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 deciduous 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 Kalmias. 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 so difficult to adorn. As a rule, they 

 transplant easily, are quite hardy, give immediate results and are altogether very satis- 

 factory plants to use. Many of the plants under this heading are most effective and more satisfactory 

 when planted in large masses with the ground kept well mulched. 





T 







The Azalea Amoena may be de- 

 pended upon to flower abundantly 

 each season. It is one of the hardiest 

 of the evergreen shrubs. Grows well 

 in shaded places as well as sunny po- 

 sitions. 



Azaleas 



For the Deciduous varieties of Azalea, see pages 

 47 and 48. 



Azalea Amoena. A bushy, dwarf evergreen with 

 small green leaves that deepen to a lustrous coppery 

 hue in Winter. Its neat appearance is attractive 

 at all seasons, but in April or May the whole plant 

 is clothed with a mass of brilliant magenta flowers 

 that hold their beauty three or four weeks. Such 

 beautiful little plants are ornamental anywhere, 

 and are especially desirable for edging drives and 

 walks, groups, or for bordering Rhododendrons and 

 Kalmia beds. The habit of this Azalea is so dense 

 and compact that it makes splendid low-flowering 

 hedges, for which purpose we highly recommend 

 it. Will grow satisfactorily in either shady or 

 sunny locations.

A. Hinode-giri. A Japanese variety of great 

 beauty. The flowers which appear in April or May 

 are of a brilliant scarlet color and are borne in great 

 profusion. A comparatively new sort which, on 

 account of its rareness, is seldom seen. Similar 

 in growth and useful in the same ways as the 

 Azalea Amoena. This year we offer a splendid 

 stock of both varieties.
