Mahonia 



Holly-leaved Mahonia. Mahoma Aqlifolia. 

 Native along the Pacific Coast, but does well here 

 with slight protection. Handsome prickly foliage 

 that is a deep, glossy green in Spring and turns to 

 a bright bronze color in Winter. Its good qualities 

 commend it for many places, especially for planting 

 in connection with Azalea Ama^na, with which it 

 produces an agreeable contrast in foliage effects.

Japanese Mahonia. Mahonia Japonica. A 

 beautiful plant, but not dependably hardy north of 

 Philadelphia. Large compound leaves that are dark 

 green and produce a beautiful contrast with other 

 evergreens. It has an additional value in the yellow 

 flowers that appear in long racemes early in the 

 Spring.

Yucca Filamentosa : Adam's 

 Needle 



In June and July it sends up tall stalks laden with 

 ivory-white flowers. Desirable alone or in shrubbery 

 and herbaceous borders. Grows well most anywhere 

 and endures dry, sandy soils, where little else will 

 grow. The flowers come after most other Ever- 

 green Shrubs have finished blooming. This gives 

 them an additional value for extending the season. 

 The evergreen foliage harmonizes well with other 

 Hroad -leaved Evergreens.

Kalmia: Mountain Laurel 



Kalmia latifolia. Bushy shrubs, with elongated 

 oblong leaves, which are always fresh and glossy, 

 making possible charming foliage effects and cheery 

 landscapes at all seasons. In early Spring they 

 bloom profusely. The delicate pink buds, beautiful 

 in themselves, open in large corymbs of pink and 

 white flowers. They are useful for massing with 

 Rhododendrons or by themselves. When used 

 either way, as an undergrowth in woodlands, the\' 

 produce splendid natural landscapes.

This represents the thrifty nature of our Hyhrid 

 Rhododendrons. Note the large mass of fibrous roots and 

 the large flower buds. Such plants as these give imme- 

 diate results and flower the same season as planted.
