Qfiousull Gove*. Platiti 
Ideal foundation for small bulb plantings 
Th e subjects listed here in addition to being valuable for covering bare ground, where grass or other vegetation will not succeed, 
also create a splendid base into which many of the smaller bulbs can be planted, such as Botanical Tulips, Narcissi, Crocus, 
Sdllas. Grape Hyacinths, etc. These bulbs call for an evergreen base to properly display their charms, and create a naturalistic 
picture, also they will have Nature’s protection, and be allowed to naturalize themselves undisturbed.

Hedera Helix 
(Evergreen English Ivy) 
The well known English Ivy is obtainable 
from us in a number of types. Their uses are 
numerous—as a low trimmed hedge, outlining 
paths, covering stone walls, sundials, embank¬ 
ments, as a general ground cover in semi-shade 
or shade; in fact, almost all of the uses to 
which “ Pachysandra ” may be put except full 
sunlight. 
As a ground cover we recommend the plant¬ 
ing of small plants placed about 12 inches 
apart. They will cover the bare ground quicker 
and can be clipped better than larger plants. 
Free from diseases and insect pests.
