REQUIRE THESE SUN LOVERS

The plants in this section (pages 13 through 15) play an important part in the shrubbery border. They provide an 
excellent transition from tall screening and background shfubs to the low foreground varieties. Medium-height shrubs 
provide a complementary foreground to flowering trees and maintain the flowering season from spring through fall. 
Best effects are achieved by grouping 3 to 7 plants of the same variety together. Foliage composition is important. 
Mild contrasts in leaf color and texture give life to your planting. Consideration of the blooming period will provide 
a long season of flowers.
