Broad-Leaved Evergreens 
In the South, we have a wealth of plant material from which to make a selection for the beautification of our home grounds,

with color of blooms to suit your taste. 
We recommend to you very highly should you wish color, the AZALEAS, these plants are low growing and of course in 
various colors blooming over a long period of time. Then comes the Azalea, Kalmia, Rhododendrons, Nandina, Pyracantha. In 
fact we can arrange to have flowers or berries from early spring to early spring. 
AZALEA 
Amoena. Dwarf and bushy, with 
small green leaves, a coppery hue 
in winter. Always attractive, but 
doubly so in April or May, when 
clothed in a mass of dark pink or 
magenta flowers. Easy to trans¬ 
plant and maintain. 
Benigiri. Evergreen leaves very nar¬ 
row. Flowers deep red almost 
scarlet. 
Christmas Cheer. Beautiful glossy 
green foliage, flowers a vivid red. 
Hinomayo. Very small foliage and

spring make this plant extremely 
showy and desirable. Its deep 
green leaves turn reddish in the 
fall. An appealing plant to the 
garden lover and one deserving a 
place on any lawn. 
Ledifolia alba. Hardy white Azalea. Large pure white flowers. 
Azalea Hinodegiri 
ABELIA (Bush Arbutus) 
Grandiflora. Dainty white flowers flushed with pink that deck 
the graceful arching branches from early July until frost, 
and small glossy leaves that glance and shimmer in the 
sunlight, makes this shrub a great favorite. As the flowers 
are borne on the new wood, severe trimming each spring 
should be practiced, so that the slight winter killing of the 
tips of the branches that sometimes occurs usually does no 
harm. A shrub 2 to 4 feet high; it is splendid for founda¬ 
tion planting and in grouping with other Evergreens.

growth, leaves narrow, dark shining green; produces a pro¬

jardiniers and window boxes; also for planting in masses.

mens on lawn or in tubs, urns, etc.
