ROSACEAE 
Cotoneaster. For the most part the cotoneasters are far too large and 
bold for the rock garden but the following close to the ground species 
are not only useful in clothing unconsidered slopes and harsh rock but 
add beauty wherever they are placed. They like to struggle with the 
elements and are better for wind and rain and sun. 
Cotoneaster sp. Stout woody branches follow the contour of ground and 
rock; small oval blue-green leaves; shy bloomer in this country but 
nevertheless one of the best. $1.00. 
C. adpressa. Deciduous; main branches hump themselves up from the 
ground 6-8 inches, flowing outward; oval leaves somewhat undulate. 
$ 1 . 00 . 
C. humifusa. Evergreen; whip-like branches are flat on whatever sub¬ 
stratum is offered; pale green oval leaves; very floriferous; attractive 
starry white flowers. 75c. 
C. microphylla glacialis (C. congesta). Main branches long, plentifully 
set with short upright divergent branches; very small shiny leathery 
leaves. $1.00. 
C. rotundifolia prostrata. Creeping species with round shiny leaves; very
