AMERICA’S MOST BEAUTIFUL NATIVE SHRUBS 
MOUNTAIN FETTERBUSH—LILY OF VALLEY SHRUB 
(Pieris or Andromeda floribunda) 
Pieris is destined to become one of the most popular native American 
shrubs. It fulfills everything one could wish for in a plant: Dark, evergreen 
foliage, compact habit of growth, excellent winter effects and early spring 
bloom. It has been rare in cultivation but we are now growing plants by the 
tens of thousands, and this year for the first time have been able to reduce the 
prices, due to our large production. It is dwarf in habit of growth and there¬ 
fore excellent as a border or rock garden plant. White flowers, similar tc. the 
common lily-of-the-valley, are borne at end of branches during late April.
