COLE presents here a group of interesting and 
useful plants. Brilliant blossoms stand out

Every home needs at least a few of these plants. 
DAPHNE 
Cneorum. Garland Flower. A grand little shrub 
of spreading habit that does not grow over 8 to 
12 inches high, producing such an abundance of 
delightfully fragrant flowers that they completely 
cover the plant in the spring and more blossoms 
appear again in the autumn. It is unequaled as 
an edging plant for evergreens; also forms a 
splendid low hedge along garden walks and 
flower beds. Prefers a sunny position and grows 
best in a well-drained ordinary soil. Each 3 
6 to 9 in.$0.75 $2.00

Hardy American Christmas Holly 
Ilex opaca 
Grow your own from “Cole’s Baby Trees”. While 
nearly everyone has wanted the “Christmas Holly” 
the price of large plants has been prohibitive to 
many. To rectify this and place this plant in a price 
range which all can afford Cole is offering these fine 
3-year plants. As these plants are unisexual, the 
female only bearing fruit, and as the sex is indeter¬ 
minate in small plants, we recommend that they 
be planted in groups if fruiting is desired. 8 to 10 
inch plants from pots, 50c. each, 3 for $1.25.
