C O VJ^ SJ> VJ> CWVO V.^ O SJ^ c 



A planting of Boxwood edging in Trenton, N. J., supplied by us during the Spring of 1913. The effect waspmmediate 

 and of the 700 furnished not a plant was lost. The variety used was Busus Sempervirens. 



Buxus: Boxwood 



Boxwood. Buxus Sempervirens. Bush Form. 

 This variety is a famiHar sight on the lawns of many 

 of our old historic homes. The small, dark green 

 leaves are always fresh and glossy. It is a strong 

 grower in almost any soil and does well in shaded 

 places. It withstands shearing and may be clipped 

 into artificial forms. When so treated, they are 

 generally used in the formal garden or for produc- 

 ing similar effects elsewhere about the lawn. The 

 smaller sizes are also planted for hedges, along 

 walks, around cemetery lots or wherever a plant of 

 this qualitv is desired.
