shades of crimson, scarlet, purple, salmon, 
and variegations.

Kortunei. Flowers larger than Florida. 
Radicans. Dwarf; trailing; foliage smaller 
than above; flowers white, very fragrant. 
Rhododendrons 
This, wherever known, Is universally acknowl- 
edged to be the most showy, magnificent, hardy 
evergreen shrub that grows. It will thrive in 
any good soil without any special preparation, 
and in the full blaze of the sun; but it is more 
luxuriant in good, well-prepared soil of leaf-mold 
and muck and peat mixed, and in partial shade. 
The broad, thick evergreen foliage, with Its 
glossy richness, would alone entitle ft to a place 
foremost In the rank of evergreen shrubs; but 
when in June this mass of luxuriant foliage is 
almost hidden by the magnificent array of beau- 
tiful flowers in clusters, it is simply grand. A 
protection of leaves and brush during the first 
winter will be beneficial. The plants we offer 
are strong and bushy, well set with ilower-buds, 
and will flower nicely the first year. Red, pink, 
white and variegated. 
MAGNOLIA granditlora. The king of the South- 
ern broad-leaved evergreen trees. 
Fuscata ( I'.unana Shrub). A most desirable 
evergreen shrub; hardy South, but for con- 
servatories in the North. The brownish yel- 
low flowers, which appear in early spring, 
emit a delightful banana fragrance. 
OLEA frugraiiH (Tea. or Sweet Olive). One of 
the most desirable flowering shrubs of South- 
ern gardens. The white flowers, although 
small, are produced in clusters, and emit 
the most pleasing fragrance. It is well said 
that "each individual bloom has more sweetness 
than the most fragrant lily." As a con- 
servatory shrub for Northern florists, it 
will be found invaluable and of ready sale. 
The blooming period begins in the fall and 
lasts for several months. Easy of culture, 
and very desirable as a winter plant.

of the finest climbers we have for covering walls,

ering it smoothly with overlapping foliage, giv- 
ing it the appearance of being shingled with 
green leaves. The color Is a fresh deep green in 
summer, changing to the brightest shade of 
crimson and yellow in autumn. It Is quite hardy 
and becomes more popular every year.
