24. Better Shrubs 


Deutzia Lemoinei 
C. horizontalis Rock Cotoneaster 
This prostrate shrub, with its almost horizontal branches and 
small glossy green leaves, is being used more each year. The flow- 
ers are pinkish white and the fruit bright red. While it is one of 
the very best shrubs for use in a rock garden, it is equally attractive 
in other spots and for use as a ground cover. No shrub in the garden 
produces more attractive bright red berries in the autumn than the 
Rock Cotoneaster.

Deutzia 
Few shrubs are of such easy culture and give such univer- 
sal satisfaction. The dazzling white and soft pink of their 
myriad bell-shaped flowers yield many handsome effects in 
garden or border arrangements. They prefer medium to 
dry soils and full sun. In acid soils they like occasional ap- 
plications of lime. 
Deutzia gracilis Slender Deutzia

fusely covered by pure white flowers in early summer.
