Cotoneaster 
This large Asiatic family has many members of high value 
for landscape planting. They vary tremendously in habit, yet 
all are attractive, and especially decorative when covered 
with their brilliant or glossy fruits. The larger types make 
excellent specimen shrubs while the low, prostrate forms are 
fine for use in the rock garden or against walls. 
Cotoneaster dielsiana Diel’s Cotoneaster 
A handsome specimen shrub with branches arching to the ground. 
The small, glossy foliage sparkles in the sunlight, and in the sum- 
mer gives an almost evergreen effect. The pinkish flowers in June and 
bright scarlet fruits in September add to its beauty.
