AND A SAVING TO YOU 
EVEKG KEENS 
There are two general classes of Evergreens: Needle- 
bearing, such as Pines, Junipers, Yews, and Hemlock; 
Broad-leaved, such as Hollies, Rhododendron, certain 
Azaleas, Cotoneasters, etc. 
Many factors enter into the choice of an Evergreen for 
a particular spot, of course, but there are two plants that 
are nearly perfect for any situation, the Japanese Yew and 
Japanese Holly. They cost somewhat more than most 
others but are more than worth the difference. 
SHADE TKEES 
It would seem unnecessary to stress the place of trees in 
the landscape, yet our experience shows that ever so many 
more evergreens are sold than shade trees, even though 
trees are not at all expensive. If your garden seems lack¬ 
ing in some respect, our guess is that it needs a tree or 
two to snap it up. 
For autumn coloring, we suggest Red and Sugar Maples; 
for shade for the lawn, Red Oak; for the formal garden, 
the compact yet graceful Small-leaved Linden. Let us help 
select a tree to fit your condition; as little as $7.50 will 
get a good one. 
FLOWERING TREES 
Everyone in Washington knows the Japanese Cherry 
and Dogwood, but not everyone knows there are dozens of 
other flowering trees as well adapted to our climate and 
even more beautiful. 
Try Flowering Crabapple for fragrance and riotous 
color in May. Mass Redbuds against pines. Plant Haw¬ 
thorns for blossoms and berries. Try Magnolias for white 
and pink spring bloom. Naturalize Silver-bell, Fringe 
Tree, and Shadbush in your woodland. 
There is a flowering tree appropriate for every part of 
your garden.

During their natural flowering season 
you may see there a fine display of Tulips, 
Irises, Peonies, and other plants and bulbs 
we have for sale. 
The Brookville Pike, Route 29, north from Silver 
Spring toward Olney, Md., brings you to the parking- 
space and sales garden.

The greatest return is realized from an investment in 
this type of plant material—color and fragrance through¬ 
out the spring and summer—in fall and winter bright 
berries beloved of birds. 
There is something doing every month of the year in the 
shrubbery border; and the average plant costs only a 
dollar. 
Naturalize Spice Bush, Summer Sweet, and native 
Azaleas at the wood’s edge; use Viburnum Carlesi, most 
fragrant of flowering shrubs, as an accent in the rose-garden. 
With the perennials, plant the new Butterfly Bush, lie 
de France—deep purple blooms in midsummer. 
For berries and birds, use all the Viburnum family, a 
dozen different varieties—all good. 
VINES 
“I am sometimes tempted to believe that climbers are 
the most valuable of ornamental plants, because they are 
the only ones that have the power of transforming ugliness 
into beauty.”— Wilhelm Miller, in “What England 
Can Teach Us about Gardening.” 
Certainly vines will soften harsh angles, break up bleak 
stretches of wall, and bring the house into closer relation¬ 
ship with its grounds. 
Let us suggest the vine to solve your problem.
