Evergreen Ground Cover Plants For Difficult, Shady Places 
For difficult places under trees and on banks where it is impossible for grass to thrive a class of plants 
designated as “Ground Cover Plants” can be used with good results. These plants are also valuable in 
Evergreen and Shrub plantings, filling up the intervening spaces. Other advantages are that they always look 
well, yet require practically no attention; and being evergreen, are as effective in Winter as in Summer. 
Among the best plants for this purpose are English Ivy, Pachysandra and Periwinkle. 
PACHYSANDRA 
Under trees Pachysandra is 
the real ansvver to the problem 
of covering- the Oiare ground 
with greenery. Another ad¬ 
vantage is the protection to 
the roots of trees afforded by 
the Pachysandra. The glossy 
foliage is very attractive. Use 
.3 or 4 to 1 sq. ft. of the area 
to be covered.

DNGI.ISH IVY 
The English Ivy is particu¬ 
larly effective used on banks, 
to edge walks and under trees. 
An advantage in using Barr’s 
English Ivy is that it goes fur¬ 
ther in coverage, eadi pot con¬ 
taining t-wo plant.s—a twofold 
advantage. Plant 10 to 12 
inches apart and you will soon 
have a carpet of green.

FERIWINKI.!: 
Not only is the Hardy Peri¬ 
winkle a good ground cover 
under trees and on hillsides, 
but its pretty blue flowers 
also make an appeal. The 
glossy, evergreen foliage re¬ 
mains beautiful the year round. 
When planting do not place the 
crown of the plant below the 
surface of the soil. Use 3 or 4 
to 1 sq. ft. of area.
