for shrub and flower bed borders, for bordering walks and drives, for

‘Cwo Inexpenst ve Plants 
ROSA WICHURAIANA Each 90c, Doz. $9.00 
Almost evergreen, the Wichuraiana or Memorial Rose trails along the 
ground, making a green, glossy mat covering a wide area. The flowers 
are produced in late July or August, in big sprays or panicles. They 
are pure white, semi-double or single, with an enormous center of 
brilliant yellow stamens. This is by far the most useful Rose for cov- 
ering banks and slopes because of its close, clinging habit and its 
tendency to root wherever it touches the ground. Rosa Wichuraiana is 
the parent of practically all our modern hybrid climbing Roses, but is 
by far the best for its own particular purpose. 

Pachysandra Growing Luxuriantly in Deep Shade 


Polygonum Reynoutria (Dwarf Polygonum) 
This handsome ground cover was introduced a few years ago by 
Amos Perry, one of England’s oldest and best known plantsmen. 
It is of easy culture, very hardy, and establishes itself quite rapidly 
from underground runners. It does best in full sun and its pale green 
foliage turns brilliant red in the autumn. Height is between 4 to 6 
inches, and in the fall produces numerous airy pink sprays of flowers 
not unlike those of the “Silver Lace Vine.” The buds are deep red, 
adding much to its charm. One of the best ground covers for sunny 
places where Vinca and Pachysandra would not be satisfactory.

for Covering Large Banks 
LONICERA HALLIANA 
Ground Covering Size, Doz. $3.30, 100 $20.00, 1000 $175.00 
Aside from being a favorite vine for both sunny and shady porches, 
Hall’s Honeysuckle is extensively used for covering banks. Its growth 
is rapid and because it roots deeply is an excellent plant to prevent 
washing of soil. The fragrant flowers produced almost all summer long 
greatly add to charm. It may also be used to cover semi-shady places 
in woods. May be planted in spring and fall. Plants should be spaced 
18 inches apart.
