Cotoneasters 
The Cotoneasters belong to the rose family, and 
can scarcely be called true evergreens, because most 
of them shed their leaves before spring. They are 
classed among the handsomest shrubs for northern 
gardens, offering a great diversity in habit, type of 
foliage, and fruit. The flowers are mostly rather 
inconspicuous, but the form of the plants, their 
graceful sprays of foliage, and beautiful arrange¬ 
ment of leaves make them most attractive. In 
autumn their variously colored fruits are showy and 
last a long time. They vary in habit from large, 
bold bushes to dwarf, spreading types adapted to 
the rock-garden. 
IP^P~On account ot the difficulty in transplanting field- 
grown Cotoneasters, we strongly advise the 
use of pot-grown plants 
We have a fine collection grown in pots. Ask 
for our special list.
