EVERGREENS FOR FOUNDATION PLANTINGS 
In recent years, Evergreens have rtceivetl ever increasing: attention and ap- 
preciation. Their advantages are practically obvious, and chiefly lie in their 
interesting shapes and textures, their variations and gradations of color, and 
their vi'inter effect. When deciduous shrubs and trees are bare and drab, ever- 
greens preserve a note of cheer, and afford a happy contrast between their ever 
yreen foliage and the snow. In addition there is a class known as Evergreen 
A practically permanent planting of Evergreens. Equally as pleasing in Winter as 
in Summer 
Shrubs, or Broad-leaved Evergreens, which bear llowcrs. Some of these flowers, 
as for instance, those of Rhododendrons and Mountain I.aurel. are very showy 
and rank high among the flowers borne by hardy shrubs and plants. 
We do not recommend mixed plantings of Evergreens and Deciduous Shrubs 
— with one exception. Azal(>as, which are really deciduous Rliododeiidrons, do 
mix well with Evergreens. Their blossoms, often bright in color, apppar to 
advantage against the bacliground of evergreen foliage. They are mostly com- 
pact and slow-growing and do not spread so rapidly as to choke out or cover up 
the evergreens. Azaleas are grouped under "Deciduous Shrubs for Foundation 
Planting."
