OVER A CENTURY OF HONEST DEALING 


By oad-Leeaf Cvergr CEN 
Not many home owners know what this title means! Think of the hollies and the laurels as ex- 
amples. We should sorely miss the glossy green foliage of the Broad-leaved Evergreens in early 
spring, the deeper colors of summer, and the cheerful contrast they give to dul! winter scenes. They 
may be used around the house foundations, planted with tall evergreens or in the shrub border. 
You will be delighted with their beauty all the year—and you will like the plants we supply. 
B&B means the roots are in a ball of earth wrapped in burlap—the safest and best way of moving 
all Evergreens. 
Abelia - Bush Arbutus 
Abelia grandiflora. Few shrubs are of greater value than 
the Abelias for planting foundation, specimens about 
the yard, or grouped in corners or curves of walks 
and drives. The dainty blush-white flowers come in 
late May or June and continue until frost. While not 
“evergreen” the rich green foliage has a special 
charm, as it remains most of the year. Each

Berberis - - Holly Barberry 
Mahoberberis neuberti (Mahonia Barberry). An interest - 
ing hybrid which is a cross between Mahonia aqui- 
folium and Berberis vulgaris. Often sold as Berberis 
ilicifolia. This medium growing, almost evergreen 
shrub is hardy, vigorous and free of insects. Leaves 
toothed or spiny, somewhat resembling a Holly. We 
think it a most useful and desirable variety. Each

Buxus - Boxwood 
Buxus sempervirens (Common Boxwood). With shiny 
green foliage, it is a plant that can be used in many 
ways. As a hedge it gives character; in an informal 
group it has no rivals; it may be clipped to pyramid 
form, globe shapes, or allowed to grow naturally. Box 
is used freely in window boxes, urns, and for garden 
edgings. They should be planted in good soil and fed 
with sheep or cow manure. Cultivate lightly and do 
not disturb the roots. Each
