145 EPIG.ffiA repens (Trailing Arbutus). ffl A 
pretty little trailing evergreen, with very fragrant- 
white or rose-colored flowers in early spring. To 
succeed with this beautiful little plant, select a 
shady spot where there is perfect drainage (a dry, 
sandy soil is preferable), cover the plants with 
Dicentni cucullnria (see page 25 ) about an inch of leaves or enough to keep the soil 
cool and moist and let them remain for a whole 
season, as it takes that time to get the Arbutus well established and rooted. We grow 
it in a frame for a season, but the leaves answer the same purpose. 25 cts. each, S2.00
