BROAD LEAVED 
EVERCREENS 
EVERGREEN SHRUBS 

Under broad-leaved evergreens are classed all shrubs 
retaining their foliage during the winter months, 
For eity planting, in many instances, they have given 
better results than the coniferous evergreens. Many 
varieties of evergreens lend beauty, both with bloom 
and luxuriant evergreen foliage. Most of these broad- 
leaved sorts prefer shade. 
These evergreens may be used effeetively in a number 
of locations---as a background, in masses along found- 
ations, intermingled with blooming plants such as shrubs 
and perennials, or arranged in naturalistic treatments 
of shrubs and conifers. Only a few of these plants are 
ever affected by inseets or diseased with various 
blights. Those marked (*) thrive best in an acid soil 
in shady locations. Good treatment will produce the 
happiest results for you. It is well to plant these 
broad-leaved types in leaf-mold or peat, and once a year 
apply a small amount of Aluminum Sulphate. One pound is 
sufficient to treat five square feet.
