J5road-J^>eaf Overqreens 
Not many home-owners know what this title means! Think of the hollies and the laurels as 
examples. We should sorely miss the glossy green foliage of the Broad-leaved Evergreens in early 
spring, the deeper colors of summer, and the cheerful contrast they give to dull winter scenes. 
They may be used around the house foundations, planted with tall evergreens or in the shrub 
border. You will be delighted with their beauty all the year—and you will like the plants we supply. 
B£rB means the roots are in a ball of earth wrapped in burlap—the safest and best way of 
moving all Evergreens. 
Abelia - Bush Arbutus 
Buxus - Boxwood 
Abelia grandiflora. Few shrubs are of greater 
value than the Abelias for planting at house 
foundations, for specimens about the yard, 
or grouped in corners or curves of walks and 
drives. The dainty blush-white flowers come 
in late May or June and continue until frost. 
While not "evergreen" the rich green foliage 
has a special charm, as it remains most of 
the year.

Buxus sempervirens. The old English Bush Box, 
with its shiny green foliage, is a plant that 
can be used in many ways. As a hedge it gives 
character to every place; in an informal group 
it has no rivals; it may be clipped or trained 
to pyramid form, globe shapes, or allowed to 
grow naturally. Box is used freely in window- 
boxes, urns, and for garden edgings. They 
should be planted in good soil and fed with 
sheep or cow manure. Cultivate lightly and 
do not disturb the roots.
