Mountain Fetter Bush jloribunda ) 
A native Andromeda, which lends itself readily to planting 
with the two species before noted, and under the same general 
conditions. All three of these Andromedas are highly recom¬ 
mended for general planting. The habit of Floribunda is 
broader and denser than Japonica or Catesbsei. The evergreen 
foliage is of rich, dark green. The fragrant white flowers, ap¬ 
pearing in the spring, long before other shrubs are in leaf, are 
carried well above its attractive foliage. 
Japanese Andromeda Japonica ) 
This species is quite distinct from the other Andromedas in 
the matter of growth and arrangement of foliage. It should 
be used with low-growing evergreens, rhododendrons or plants 
of like character, either in masses or in the wild garden. The 
evergreen foliage is carried in heavy whorls, and the new 
growth in the spring has the rich, bronzy effect of the new 
growth of the laurel. The flowers are borne in long racemes, 
and the entire effect of the plant is one of great beauty, summer 
and winter alike.
