GROUND COVERS and VINES 
Ground covers add the finishing touches to your gar- 
den. They can be used under trees where the shade is too 
deep for grass, between shrubs and lawn, in front of low 
evergreens. There are many types—some usually con- 
‘sidered as vines are even more effective when grown in 
low, billowy masses. Vines, as such, take but a little space 
and contribute a wealth of charm.
