ESCALLONIA ORGANENSIS—Mahogany tinted stems and 
foliage. Big heads of apple-blossom colored bloom in 
Winter and Spring. 
HARDY ROCK ROSES 
Cistus corbariensis. One reason we are so partial to this 
low spreading shrub is that the dark daintily veined leaves 
present such a clean bright appearance even in winter time. 
In spring and early summer the plants are weighted with 2- 
inch single flowers of glowing frosty white. A remarkably 
fine shrub for planting beneath low windows or along low 
porches or, in fact, anywhere that a low dense plant is desir- 
able. Sun. Hardy. 14-2 ft. 5-gal. containers, $2.75; gal. 
containers, 85c. 
Cistus ladaniferus maculatus. Might well be called the 
“Shrub of a Thousand Blooms” for in early summer the plant 
is alive with big single white-skirted blooms that will thrill 
you with their fresh loveliness. Each glowing petal is hand- 
somely marked with maroon at the base. Sun. Hardy. 3-4 
ft. and about as broad as tall. 5-gal. containers, $2.75; gal. 
containers, 85c. 
Cistus purpureus. If you are a bit inclined to get “down in 
the mouth” you'll find this plant a grand little ‘“cheerer 
upper”. When you feel one of those bad days coming on slip 
out to the garden and pay a visit to this colorful little lady. 
She’ll put color in your cheeks and a song in your heart. Big 
single pink bloom of crepe paper texture on a well rounded 
3-4 ft. shrub. Sun. Hardy. 5-gal. containers, $3.00; gal. 
containers, 85c. 
LILY OF THE VALLEY TREE 
Clethra arborea. A handsome lush foliaged small tree of 
just the right size to fit in a small lawn area. The bright 
glossy leaves, 4 inches in length, provide a natural setting 
for the dainty racemes of sweet smelling white blossoms. 
Will provide plenty of thrills if planted in a cool moist loca- 
tion. Half hardy. 15-20 ft. 5-gal. containers, $3.00; gal. con- 
tainers, $1.00. 
Evergreen flowering shrubs and trees will form the founda- 
tion planting about your new home. Plant them first. You 
can add the perennial and annual “trimmings”’ later. 
GRACEFUL COCCULUS 
Cocculus laurifolius. If you do not have this shrub in your 
garden we advise you to put it on your must list right now. 
Bright green arching branches are heavily strung with pol- 
ished six-inch leathery leaves that fairly sparkle in the sun- 
light. You'll be amazed at its fresh clean beauty. One might 
well imagine that a fairy or elf (or maybe a Boy Scout) 
gave it a bath each night before it went to bed. Grows to six 
or eight feet and with a little pruning will be well clothed 
right down to the ground. Hardy. Sun or part shade. 8 ft. 
Balled, 3-4 ft., $6.00; 214-3 ft., $3.75; 5-gal. containers, $2.75; 
gal. containers, 90c. 
BREATH OF HEAVEN 
Coleonema pulchrum. During damp weather or if brushed 
against this airy heath-like shrub diffuses a sweet fragrance 
similar to Lemon Verbena. In spring and early summer 
countless thousands of small pink starry flowers are crowded 
over the entire plant. May be kept quite compact if pruned 
two or three times during summer. Hardy and drought re- 
sistant, Sun. 2 ft. Balled 2 ft., $3.25; 5-gal. containers, $2.75; 
gal. containers, 75c. 
Coleonema album. Similar to the foregoing variety except 
the flowers are white and the plant grows a little broader than 
tall. Prefers a light soil and good drainage. Hardy except in 
very cold areas. Sun. 1%-2 ft. 5-gal. containers, $2.75; gal. 
containers, 75c. 
AUSTRALIAN FUCHSIA 
Correa speciosa. A low winter blooming shrub of spread- 
ing habit that covers itself in winter and spring with in- 
triguing dainty pink bells. Dense olive-green foliage hand- 
somely shaded with a suggestion of brown. Thrives in any 
well drained soil with a minimum of water and attention. 
Hardy. Sun. 5-gal. containers, $2.75; gal. containers, 90c. 
Correa harrisi. We have enjoyed the pink bells of Correa 
speciosa for a number of years. Now we have this brand new 
variety that matures its large brilliant orange scarlet bloom 
from November to April. Bright green foliage. Seems to 
thrive in either sun or shade. 144-2 ft. Hardy. Gal. con- 
tainers, $1.50. 
BRILLIANT COTONEASTERS 
Cotoneaster lactea (Parneyi). Most desirable of the taller 
varieties of Cotoneaster. Graceful arching branches well 
strung with dark foliage and in spring, clouds of small white 
bloom. Countless clusters of deep red berries follow the 
bloom and last through winter. Cut sprays provide plenty of 
colorful berries during the Christmas season, Hardy. Sun. 
6-8 ft. 5-gal. containers, $2.75; gal. containers, 75c. 
Cotoneaster horizontalis. The prostrate branches are 
strung with miniature bright pink blooms in spring, fol- 
lowed by a marvelous profusion of small berries that paint 
the branchlets red in the fall. Small glossy foliage. Spreads 
to 24-4 ft. 20 inches tall. 5-gal. containers, $2.75; gal. con- 
tainers, 85c. 
CANARY BIRD TREE 
Crotalaria agatiflora. Spectacular green and yellow flowers 
that so closely resemble Canary birds you almost expect 
them to burst into song. Fern-like tropical foliage. The plant 
erows unbelievably fast. Sun. Half-hardy. 6-10 ft. Gal. con- 
tainers, $1.25.
