T HE great beauty of the broad leaf evergreens makes them most valuable for 
gardening purposes. Many are among our most spectacular and gorgeous 
flowering shrubs, while their broad, attractive leaves show out most effectively 
during the parts of the year when many trees and plants are without foliage. There 
is practically no end to the charming results that can be gained by the liberal use of 
this class of plants. Groupings generally give most attractive effects and the plants 
themselves do much better when planted this way. 
Good, fertile loam should always be used in preparing for this class of plants. 
Sufficient water should be supplied at least until they become well established so 
that they will not suffer from dryness. This does not necessarily mean frequent 
watering. Liberal mulching is also recommended.
