An attractive grouping arranged and planted by us on the gtounds of Princeton University. Rhododendrons have 

 been used against the building and the beautiful Abelia or Bush Arbutus, listed below, is planted in the foreground 

 where its graceful manner and small lustrous foliage combine to set out its delicate white flowers in wonderful manner. 

 If you live where the thermometer does not go below zero in winter, get some Abelia; there is an alluring charm about 

 the myriads of delicate white flowers that open in continuous succession from July until frost. For prices see below. 



Evergreen Shrubs 



THESE " Broad-leaved Evergreens" are being used more and more each year, because they are so desir- 

 able 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 satisfactory 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. 



Abelia: Bush Arbutus 



Abelia rupestris; syn. A. Grandiflora. Grace- 

 ful, arching branches; small, glossy leaves and 

 beautiful small white flowers blushed with pink. 

 A valuable little Evergreen Shrub because it blooms 

 at a season when few other blossoms are in sight. 

 During the Summer months it is literally covered 

 with attractive blooms. Shows up to best advan- 

 tage when planted in masses and in connection with 

 other Evergreens. Not entirely hardy north of 

 Philadelphia.
