CALLUNA AND ERICA - Heaths and Heathers 
The Heaths are compact, low growing evergreen plants, and as such 
are extremely useful for planting in front of evergreens or as edgings. The 
small foliage is densely arranged around the wiry little stems, and either 
when in full bloom or in midwinter makes a very pretty picture. 
Culture. All Heaths and Heathers require a warm, well drained soil. Half 
peat and loam freely mixed with coarse sand to which a liberal quantity of 
well-rotted cow manure has been added suits them best.

CALYCANTHUS 
Floridus Each $0.75, Three $2.00, Doz. $6.25 
Few shrubs are so well known as the Carolina Allspice. In fact, over 
a large part of the United States it is called ‘Shrub’ or “Shrub Bush” 
without any other qualification. In some places it is referred to as the 
“Sweet-scented Shrub,’ the ‘Sweet Shrub,” or the ‘/Strawberry Shrub.”’ 
The handsome, dark red-brown flowers are produced in early spring. 
They are deliciously fragrant, especially when wilted, and school-boys 
frequently fill their pockets with them, carrying them about until they 
are shriveled husks. The curious large pods which follow are full of 
smooth, brown seeds, like coffee beans, which are elusively aromatic 
when rubbed in the hands and often used as counters in children’s 
games. During the summer, the plant is neat and very handsome, with 
glossy, corrugated foliage. It grows 4 to 5. feet high, and in time will 
spread over an area equally broad.

perfectly rounded, making a small mound about 2 feet in diameter.
