FRAGRANT DAPHNE 
Combine the permeating perfume of orange blossoms with 
the exotic sweetness of the Sweet Olive and you have the 
full rich fragrance of the Daphne. A single cluster of the 
small single blossoms will scent a large room. A handsome, 
full foliaged shrub of unquestionable character. Give it part 
or all shade, good drainage, a handful or two of acid food 
each spring and it will give a good account of itself. 3-4 ft. 
Will not freeze. 
Daphne odora. Clear white. Substantial glossy green 
foliage. 5-gal. containers, $2.50; gal. containers, $1.00. 
Daphne odora marginata. White tinged with rosy pink. 
Varnished dark green leaves edged with creamy white. 
Balled, bushy 24-30 in., $6.00; 5-gal. containers, $2.50; gal. 
containers, $1.00. See color illustration, page 23. 
EVERGREEN DEUTZIA 
Deutzia pulchra. Substantial, leathery, olive-green foli- 
age and big showy flower clusters (30 to 40 blooms). Each 
pearly white, yellow centered flower is daintily brushed on 
the reverse side with carmine rose. Blooms heavily in 
spring and early summer and is particularly desirable for 
cutting. It’s new. Sun or part shade. Hardy. 5 ft. 5-gal. 
containers, $1.75; gal. containers, 60c. See illustration, 
page 14, 
BREATH OF HEAVEN 
Diosma pulchrum. Pink Breath of Heaven. Countless 
thousands of minute star-shaped rose-lavender flowers cover 
the heather-like tips of this dwarf compact shrub in early 
spring. Prune twice yearly, early and mid-summer and you 
will have a shrub that will keep its good looks for years. 
Hardy. Plenty of sun. 2%-3 ft. Balled, very bushy 1%4-2 ft., 
$1.85; 5-gal. containers, $1.50; gal. containers, 50c. 
Diosma Reevesii. Much lower growing than the preced- 
ing variety and far superior in every way to alba, the va- 
riety so popular for many years. Soft, compact heath-like 
foliage that is spicily fragrant when crushed. Flowers snow 
white. Sun and good drainage. Hardy, except in severe 
frosts. Balled, very bushy 114-2 ft., $2.00; 5-gal. containers, 
$1.50; gal containers, 50c. 
FOR WINTER BLUE 
Eranthemum nervosum. In mid-winter when little else is 
in bloom this delightful plant provides lustrous panicles of 
vivid blue above lush green foliage. Plant in a frost pro- 
tected shady spot. 5-gal. containers, $1.75; gal. containers, 
60c. 
WINTER BLOOMING HEATHERS 
Erica Felix Faure. One of the most unusual and highly 
colored of the heathers. Erect stems thickly covered with 
soft needle-like foliage are ringed for most of their length 
with red, pink-tipped flowers. Blooms through fall, winter 
and spring. Short-lived. Ordinarily survives but a season 
or two but is most worthwhile anyway. Full sun. 2-2% ft. 
5-gal. containers, $1.75; gal. containers, 60c. 
Erica melanthera rosea. This is a much improved variety 
bearing clouds of deep rosy purple flowers from October 
until April. Enjoys cold weather—the colder the nights the 
deeper the color. Keep it in the sun and on the acid side. 
Long lived. Hardy. 6-7 ft. Balled, bushy, 2-2% ft., $1.85; 
5-gal. containers, $1.75; gal. containers, 50c. 
Erica Veitchii. In late winter and spring this variety is 
a 4 to 5 foot mound of clear glowing white. Not choosy as 
to soil. Plant in the sun and watch it perform. Hardy, 5-gal. 
containers, $1.75; gal. containers, 60c. 
HEATHER FOR SUMMER 
Erica mediterranea hybrida. Just a real good easy to grow 
plant that forms a thick 3-ft. clump that hugs the ground. 
Grows less than 1 ft. tall, and is studded in summer with 

ESPALIER HIBISCUS See page 43 ~ 
short racemes of dainty deep purple flowers. A shrub we 
have always enjoyed thoroughly. Not particular as to soil. 
Hardy. Give it a hot location and not too much care and 
it will thrive. Gal. containers, 60c. 
ESCALLONIAS 
Glossy leaved shrubs for sunny location. Not particular 
as to soil. Terminal spikes of small showy bell-shaped flow- 
ers appear in spring and summer. Pleasingly fragrant. 
Hardy. 
Escallonia organensis. Erect branches heavily foliaged 
with neat glossy leaves that are tinged with mahogany. 
White, pink tinged flowers in heavy clusters. A long lived 
shrub that will “grow on you” both figuratively and literally. 
We heartily recommend it. 6-8 ft. 5-gal. containers, $1.75; 
egal. containers, 60c. 
Escallonia rubra. Low compact shrub to 4 ft. Lovely 
dark green polished leaves. Many rose-red flowers. 5-gal. 
containers, $1.75; gal containers, 50c. See color illustration, 
page 23. 
ROSE APPLE 
Eugenia Jambos. Not only does the dense leathery green 
and bronze foliage present a neat cool appearance in the gar- 
den but the large white, flushed pink, fruit makes excellent 
rose scented jelly. Large fluffy white flowers, too. Semi- 
hardy. Sun. 8-9 ft. 5-gal. containers, $2.00; gal. containers, 
L5G: 
EUGENIA 
Eugenia myrtifolia. You could almost call this an all- 
purpose shrub. If allowed to grow unpruned the bronzy 
tipped foliage will rise rapidly to form a thick growing shrub 
of 15 or 20 ft. Trimmed in pyramid shape they are much 
used to frame large windows, to break long stretches of 
wall or to soften the corners of buildings, For a closely 
clipped hedge of from 3 to 10 feet they are unsurpassed. 
Tubs, trimmed pyramids, 6-7 ft., $6.00; 5-gal. containers, 
$2.00; gal. containers, 50c.
