Shrubs 
In the planting of the home grounds nothing will give more 
wide variation nor more permanent beauty than well selected 
shrubs suitable for the location they are to occupy. By careful 
study, one may have beauty of foliage, flowers, or fruit practi¬ 
cally the year round, lending an interest to one’s planting which 
cannot be gained by any other class of plants.
