in favor during the past few years than the Elaeagnus 
Family. A most versatile Shrub, for foundation plant-

other shrub grows better than Elaeagnus in shady lo- 
cations, as well as in full sun. Small white flowers, 
followed by small yellowish-red edible fruit. 
Note—All Elaeagnus Cutting Grown.

of growth.

where used in shade for Hedges with its new bronze leaves and 
brownish bark makes excellent contrast color in plantings.

iage is young, it adds attractiveness to the silvery-white coloring.

New Compact Elaeagnus 
This specimen is typical example of our field grown Cutting- 
grown Elaeagnus, which are so useful in general landscape plant- 
ings. Use them for shady locations as well as in full sun. 
GRIFFING’S COMPACT EK. Griffing Hor. var. 
New and unusual variety, a sport of the Fruitlandi discovered by 
us in 1934. Preferred to all other varieties of Elaeagnus by many 
customers and Landscape men because of its close compact, at- 
tractive growth. Semi-spreading compact habit, leaves of medium 
size and quantities of small branches makes it very attractive and 
good for clipped hedges or Specimen plants.
