BROADLEAF EVERGREEN SHRUBS 
HE next five pages are devoted to presenting the best of these flowering 
evergreens in alphabetical order. On this page we illustrate a few outstanding 
examples. Further color photographs may be found on the front cover (KALMIA) 
and back cover (AZALEAS and RHODODENDRON). 
Many evergreen shrubs need an acid soil, but dozens thrive in any ordinary 
garden loam—e.g. Abelia, Daphne, and Pyracantha on this page. 
These are the Aristocrats of all shrubs, having both summer beauty of bloom 

and attractive winter foliage.

New Abelia Edward Goucher 

Abelia grandiflora. Not as 
bright a color as the new Ed. 
Goucher, but slightly hardier 
and therefore useful over a 
wider area in the north.
