FLOWERING SHRUBS 
W HETHER planted individually or collectively, shrubs are an important feature in the adornment of any 
grounds. In groups they can be made to emphasize some feature of the lawn, to screen the garage, the 
laundry-yard, or some unsightly view. Among borders of the lawn, along walks and drives and in cor¬ 
ners, collections of shrubs may be gathered that will give a succession of bloom from early spring until fall. In 
the list that follows will be found shrubs for all such purposes.
