Broad-Leaved Evergreens, Continued 
ELAEAGNUS (Elaeagnus)—A class of shrubs 
with attractive foliage and fruits. Desirable 
for use in group plantings, also as specimen 
plants. 
ELAEAGNUS, BRONZE (Elaeagnus pungens re- 
flexa)—The large leaves are dark silvery green 
above, brownish-mottled and frosty green be¬ 
neath. The fragrant flowers in early winter 
are followed by red fruits very attractive to 
birds. A strong grower with long, trailing 
branches. 
ELAEAGNUS, SIMON (Elaeagnus simoni) — 
Leaves rather long, grayish-green above and 
silvery beneath. Of compact growth. The fra¬ 
grant blossoms in early winter are followed by 
red fruits. 
EUONYMUS, EVERGREEN (Euonymus japon- 
icus)—Upright plant with compact, glossy dark 
green foliage. Attains height of five to eight 
feet, but stands pruning well and may be 
pruned to any desired shape. Beautiful for 
hedges, for formal specimens, or for masses or 
base plantings. 
EUONYMUS, PYRAMIDAL (Euonymus japoni- 
cus columnaris)—Leaves thick, dark, shining 
green; somewhat more narrow than leaves of 
Euonymus japonicus. Plant upright and com¬ 
pact, growing rather columnar. Useful for 
hedges or as specimens where a spreading 
grower is not desired. 
EUONYMUS, SPREADING (Euonymus patens) 
—A spreading, graceful shrub with glossy- 
green foliage. Numerous seed pods from which 
are suspended bright red berries make the 
plants attractive in late summer and fall. This 
shrub is classed as an evergreen, but it is really 
semi-evergreen, often shedding its foliage late 
in winter. It is hardy farther north and more 
fruitful than Evergreen Euonymus. 
FIRETHORN, LALAND (Pyracantha coccinea 
lalandi)—Vigorous growing, erect shrub or 
small tree which in spring is covered with clus¬ 
ters of small white flowers. The rich, glossy- 
green foliage and orange scarlet berries cov¬ 
ering the plant in the fall and winter make it 
one of the most showy of the Firethorns. 
FIRETHORN, SCARLET (Pyracantha coccinea) 
—An evergreen shrub which is broad and 
spreading; the flowers are borne in clusters in 
late spring, making the plant desirable as a 
blooming shrub, but its wealth of reddish- 
orange berries in fall is its chief attraction. One 
of the hardiest of the Firethorns. 
FIRETHORN, YUNNAN (Pyracantha crenulata 
yunnanensis)—A spreading, vigorous growing 
shrub introduced from China. The leaves are 
bright green; flowers small and white, and in 
fall and winter the plant bears a profusion of 
scarlet berries. 
HONEYSUCKLE, Goldflame (Trade-Marked) — 
Coral-carmine trumpets lined with gold; foliage 
dark, glossy green. An ever-blooming vine. 
Can be kept trimmed to make compact shrub 
or hedge. Hardy over the entire country. 
HONEYSUCKLE, Roseglo (Trade-Marked) — 
Semi-shrub with dark gray-green foliage. 
Flowers rose-pink shaded almost purple on out¬ 
side, creamy-white inside, and exceedingly fra¬ 
grant. A profuse bloomer from late spring 
until severe winter. Evergreen in the South, 
hardy North. 
JASMINE, ITALIAN (Jasminum floridum)—A 
spreading, somewhat tender evergreen, with 
slender, drooping branches which are green, 
and the foliage is dark green and lance shaped. 
The bright yellow, tube-shaped flowers are 
fragrant, appearing in small clusters from 
early spring until late fall. The plant should 
be protected from the extreme cold. 
LAVENDER, TRUE (Lavandula officinalis)—A 
low, bushy, herb-like plant grown chiefly for 
its aromatic leaves which are often dried and 
used for perfuming linens, closets, etc. Gray¬ 
ish-green foliage; flowers lavender blue, borne 
in spikes. 
MAGNOLIA, SOUTHERN (Magnolia grandi- 
flora)—A majestic, evergreen tree. Leaves 
large, thick, glossy green above and reddish- 
gray beneath. The flowers are large, often 
twelve inches across, semi-double, with heavy 
fragrance. One of the finest ornamental trees. 
Best suited to light or sandy soils, particularly 
the eastern portions of Sections A and D. Has 
withstood several degrees below zero with us 
here. 
MAHONIA OR OREGON HOLLYGRAPE (Ma- 
honia aquifolium)—A low spreading evergreen 
shrub with holly-like foliage of dark bronzy- 
green with tints of red. The flowers are in¬ 
significant yellow tufts, followed by blue-black 
berries in fall and winter. Will stand extreme 
cold, but should be protected from extreme hot 
sun. 
NANDINA (Nandina domestica)—An erect grow¬ 
ing shrub with bamboo-like shoots. Foliage 
finely cut, brilliant colored, varying from dark 
green to red and coppery tones. Flowers small, 
followed by brilliant red and yellow berries in 
top of plant in fall. Prefers well drained soil 
and is quite hardy. 
OAK, LIVE (Quercus virginiana)—An upright 
and spreading evergreen tree which is in strong- 
demand as a shade and ornamental tree. Native 
to a large portion of eastern territory in Sec¬ 
tions A and D. 
PHOTINIA, HOLLYLEAF (Photinia dentata) — 
Similar to Low Photinia, but foliage is crinkled, 
a brighter green, and almost holly-like with its 
spiny edges. Its new growth is some later in 
spring and more beautiful, but it lacks the 
blooming qualities of Photinia serrulata. A 
beautiful evergreen foliage plant. 
PHOTINIA, LOW (Photinia serrulata)—One of 
our most beautiful broad-leaved evergreens. The 
leaves are dark, shining green, broad, long, with 
serrate edges. The new growth in spring is 
soft green with crimson tips, making the plant 
very showy. In early spring it is magnificent 
with its wealth of fragrant white flowers in 
numerous flat corycombs. 
PRIVET, CRINKLY-LEAF (Ligustrum lucidum 
recurvum)—Vigorous, upright grower; thick, 
large, glossy green leaves which are curled and 
twisted, giving a crinkled appearance; flowers 
and fruits similar to Ligustrum lucidum. 
PRIVET, GOLDEN JAPAN (Ligustrum japoni- 
cum aureum)—Very similar to Japan Privet in 
form of growth, though does not attain such 
size, nor is it so vigorous and hardy. Foliage 
golden-yellow and very attractive, lending color 
to group plantings. Will not stand extreme 
cold.
