BROAD LEAF EVERGREENS 
Abelia GrandiAora 
ABELIA g-randiflora (Glossy Arbutus). Few shrubs are 
of greater value than the Abelias for planting at house 
foundations, for specimens about the yard, or grouped in 
corners or curves of walks and drives. The dainty blush- 
white flowers come in late May or June and continue until 
frost. While not “evergreen’’ the rich green foliage has a 
special charm, as it remains most of the year.

BOXWOOD (Buxus sempervirens). The old English 
Bush Box, with its shiny green foliage, is a plant that can 
be used in many ways. As a hedge it gives character to 
every place; in an informal group it has no rivals ; it may 
be clipped or trained to pyramid form, globe shapes, or 
allowed to grow naturally. Box is used freely in window- 
boxes, urns, and for garden edgings. They should be planted 
in good soil and fed with Driconure or cow-manure. Culti¬ 
vate lightly and do not disturb the roots.

AMERICAN HOLLY (Ilex opaca). Everyone knows the 
native Holly with its large, glossy leaves and red berries. 
It is not appreciated as it should be, for it can be sheared 
into compact specimens like Boxwood or left to develop 
naturally into a bush or small tree that is wonderful at 
all seasons of the year. Some plants do not bear berries. 
Nursery-grown plants are comparatively easy to transplant 
if planting directions are followed. Each Per 10
