Evergreen Shrubs. 
AZALEA, BOX, Etc. 
Prices, 50 cents to $1.50 each. 
ANDROMEDA fioribunda. Low graceful 
bush with abundant one-sided racemes 
of white flowers. 
AZALEA. Small rounded shrubs, with 
beautiful flowers. 
Amoena. A very dwarf bushy shrub, 
entirely covered in May with masses 
of small purplish red double flowers; 
one of the choicest, most valuable and 
most attractive of hardy evergreen 
shrubs. 
Mollis. A new species, which cannot 
fail to gain in reputation every year; 
the large and abundant flowers resemble 
those of the rhododendron, and vary in 
color from yellow to red, appearing be- 
for the leaves. 
Viscosa. A taller native variety; has 
white, sticky, exceedingly fragrant 
flowers in July. 
BOX. Evergreen shrubs of rounded form 
and beautiful, rich color; well adapted 
for small grounds and shady places. 
BOX, Variegated. Leavesmarked with white 
or yellow. 
Dwarf. Used for edging; needs some 
protection here when young. 
Tree. A long lived species, becoming a 
tree from 12 to 20 feet high. In partial 
shade and rich soil the color is deep, 
glossy green. 
We have an excellent stock of Va¬ 
riegated and Tree-Box, clipped to a con¬ 
ical form. They are well adapted for 
the formal garden and terrace. The 
Columbian flower tubs, in which they 
may be planted, are neat and desir¬ 
able, their design corresponding well 
with architectural structures. 
HOLLY, American. Is a beautiful conical 
evergreen; the leaves are thick, tough 
and very glossy, scolloped, and armed 
with spines, among which appear the 
ornamental red berries in winter: 
removing the leaves when transplanting 
and planting in deep cool soil, and 
rather a shady place will remove many 
of the difficulties of its culture. 
Laurel. A beautiful native evergreen 
shrub, with shining foliage and dense 
clusters of pink or nearly white flowers 
in spring. Requires same treatment as 
the Rhododendron. 
RHODODENDRON. The broad evergreen 
foliage, with its glossy richness, would 
alone entitle it to first rank, but when 
this is crowded in June with many 
clusters of flowers, each cluster large 
enough fora bouquet, and each variety 
having its own color, white, blue, pur¬ 
ple, delicate shell, cherry, lilac, mauve, 
and crimson, the term superb fitly de¬ 
scribes its appearance. We keep the 
hardiest named varieties: plants with 
flower-buds. $1.50.
