COTONEASTER 
The large family of Cotoneasters 
has many members of high value for 
landseape plantings. Cotoneasters 
erown in an open situation generally 
prove to be hardy throughout north- 
ern United States. They vary greatly 
in habit and attractiveness and rely 
upon their brilhantly colored fruit, 
more than floral beauty, for decora- 
tive effect. They do not transplant 
as readily as some shrubs and must be 
carefully handled during the trans- 
planting operation. The generally 
interesting branching habit, both the 
low sprawly types and those with 
arching branches, are decorative all 
year.

ILEX - The Hollies 
There is something startling about 
the sight of a full-grown Holly tree 
aglow \ with red berries. Our iImagina- 
tions are stirred by this familiar. spe- 
cies not only because of its association 
with Christmas spirit and cheer, but 
by its crisp, dominant, year- -round 
personality. Only one of this group 
looks anything like the tree Christ- 
mas Holly. They differ greatly in 
habit and use but all are among the 
most desirable of evergreen shrubs. 
I. bullata (Bozleaf Holly). Resem- 
bles dwarf Boxwood in habit and 
foliage. Usually grows broader 
than. high, with very glossy foliage.

known Christmas Holly, with red
