Hardy Evergreen Shrubs 
The importance of this class of plant material has long 
been recognized by many garden lovers. Since they are 
evergreen, they present an attractive appearance, both in 
summer and winter. They are comparatively slow growers, 
are easy to keep in bounds, and grow more beautiful with 
age. All of these varieties grow best in a somewhat acid 
soil, lightened by plenty of leaf-mold or peat-moss, and 
some require protected locations for best results. Certain 
varieties may be used with success in plantings in the shade.
