EVERGREENS 
Nothing adds more to the attractiveness of a home than Evergreens. 
While nature has shrouded itself in Winter quarters they give their best and 
most cheering effect. But few kinds succeed well in the South, and the ones we 
offer we have selected from a long list of the many kinds that we have tested and 
find stand our long, hot summers. 
Globosa Arbor ITitce. A very compact 
variety, with dark, green foliage and 
globe shape. 
American Arbor Vitce. A beautiful, rapid 
growing variety, with dark, green flat 
foliage. 
Compacta Arbor Vitae. A dense globular 
shape, with light, green foliage. 
Norway Spruce. A splendid tree of 
pyramidal habit and rapid growth, pict- 
uresque and beautiful. 
Tree Box. A pretty and desirable 
dark green, glossy foliaged little tree. 
Magnolia. Grandiflora. The king of Ever- 
greens. Everybody knows it too well 
for a description. 
ROSES 
In the way of ornamentals, one naturally thinks of the Rose first. The ease 
with which it can be grown in the South, its long continued season of bloom — 
and its gracious adaptability to various situations make it easily “the queen of 
flowers.” 
The Bride. A pure white Rose of per- 
fect form, and extra large size. The 
buds are long and pointed, very hand- 
some, while the flower opens up beauti- 
ful and full; delightfully scented. The 
most popular White Tea Rose. 
General Jacqueminot. A rich, velvety 
crimson, changing to scarlet-crimson; 
a magnificent Rose, equally beautiful 
in bud state or open. This is the best 
known of all the Hybrid Perpetuals, 
and is without a rival in fragrance and 
richness of color. It is, moreover, as 
easy of cultivation as many of the more 
common varieties, and perfectly lovely. 
Catherine Mermet. One of the. finest 
Roses grown. The buds are very large 
and globular, the petals being recurved 
and showing to advantage the lovely 
bright pink of the center, shading 
into light creamy pink, reminding 
one of EaFrance in its silvery 
shading. A strong grower and fine 
bloomer. 
Marechal Niel. A beautiful deep yel- 
low; large and globular; fragrant; free 
flowering; one of the finest yellow tea- 
scented Roses; a good climber. Well 
known and deservedly popular.
