BROAD-LEAVED EVERGREENS 
The South is indeed fortunate in its wealth of Broad-leaved 
Evergreens which flourish in practically all sections. Many of 
them have beautiful blooms and berries—a distinct advantage 
over the conifers. With the use of broad-leaved material one 
is able to get definite contrasts in color and size of foliage, 
blossoms over long periods, low-growing or tall-growing j^lants, 
as the location demands. 
There is a distinct tendency on the part of planters in the 
South to use more Broad-leaved Evergreens, for, with a 
proper selection, the blooming season can be lengthened 
over a period of several months—from spring until midsum¬ 
mer. There are Broad-leaved Evergreens for every type of 
planting—tall, columnar ones where height is desired, broad, 
symmetrical ones for places of medium height—in fact, there 
is some sort which will fit any required place. The group, as a 
whole, has the added advantage of standing pruning ex¬ 
ceptionally well. The Broad-leaved Evergreens are also 
excellent for the shrub border, for screening out undesirable 
views, and for use as specimen plants. There is not a more 
versatile group. 
ABELIA 
Grandiflora. Succeeds over a very wide 
range of climatic and soil-conditions,

white funnel-shaped flowers, tinted with 
pink, borne in clusters from May until
