 Where large mass plantings are desired, this plant 

 has no equal. Its perfect hardiness in a cold climate, 

 thriving in the full sun as well as in the densest shade,

Boxwood 



Each season this favorite increases in popularity 

 which is well deserved, for its uses are almost innumer- 

 able. As a tub or pot plant, there is no broad-leaved 

 evergreen to compare with it. It is unquestionably the 



tuatin^y adiiiii-ahl\- chosen points, it is extreiiu'l\- effec- 

 ti\<- fi'i i(i|)iar\ Hardens. As an edging for outlining 

 walks and lie^N 111 the formal or old-fashioned garden. 



The large cities demand Boxwood more and more 

 each year for outside window decoration and embellish- 

 ment of entrances. As a pot or tub plant, it is equally 

 desirable whether in standard, pyramid, or natural 

 bush form. Our annual importation in all forms has 

 been ver\- large and we have yet on hand may plants 

 that must be seen to be appreciated. Each
