Daphne Cneorum 
Garland Flower 
Daphne works in well with perennials. Since 
rock gardening is so popular, there are many 
being used with assortments of hardy plants. The 
nature of Daphne is a dwarf bushy plant form¬ 
ing a broad mat of wiry almost prostrate stems 
covered with dark green leaves, each stem tipped 
with a dense cluster of rose-pink deliciously fra¬ 
grant flowers in May and August. Without ques¬ 
tion it is one of the most beautiful little early 
flowering shrubs. Since the plants are available in 
quantity this plant should be included in prac¬ 
tically all types of gardening.

Horizontalis 
In the list of low growing evergreen shrubs, 
this variety stands out. It has the true horizontal 
branches with glossy green leaves, throughout 
the winter months covered with orange red ber¬ 
ries. It is a very attractive plant when used for a 
low border in any planting. It is also outstanding 
in a rock garden. Really it is the only shrub that 
grows from 10 to 12 inches off the ground, its 
spread being many times that. When the entire 
top is covered with orange red berries, the whole 
plant becomes very pleasing to the eye. We offer 
nice stylish plants in the following sizes.

Firethorn or Evergreen Thorn 
This is one of the new evergreen shrubs be¬ 
longing to the thorn family. Its nature is to 
produce exceptionally heavy white flowers. This 
plant can be trained to grow upright or into
