RONDELETIA CORDATA 
Big heads of showy salmon bloom. See page 24. 
GOLDEN DOLLARS 
Hypericum patulum henryi. We are quite partial to this 
outstanding plant for almost too many reasons to enumerate. 
In the first place its big golden blossoms are carried through 
most of the year. The bronze tipped willowy branches appear 
clean and cool through all seasons. Frosty winter nights 
paint the lower leaves in brilliant shades of red and gold. As 
the plant grows to only 2 or 3 feet it is not too large to fit in 
most anywhere. Sun or shade. Hardy. Balled 1%-2 ft., 
$3.25; 5-gal. containers, $2.75; gal. containers, 75c. 
HOLLIES 
Ilex aquifolium. English Holly. A shapely Holly all dressed 
up in brilliant red berries and dark spiny toothed leaves is 
always a center of attraction. Plant a few English Holly in 
your Camellia beds and see how admirably two different fam- 
ilies can get along together. They are not at all human, we 
assure you. Sun or part shade. Hardy. Balled, 1%-2 ft., 
$4.00; 5-gal. containers, $3.50; gal. containers,, $1.25. 
Ilex cornuta. Chinese Holly. A hardy long-lived shrub 
notable for its big bright berries and lustrous foliage. During 
the Christmas season its heavily berried branches are greatly 
prized for indoor decorations. Seems to feel equally at home 
in sun or shade. Balled, 114-2 ft., $4.00; 5-gal. containers, 
$3.50; gal. containers, $1.25. 
LARGEST BERRIES 
Ilex cornuta Burford. Burford’s Holly. The spines which 
characterize the leaves of other hollies are entirely absent in 
this variety. The leaves possess a rich glossy finish and are 
perfectly smooth on the edges, In addition, the big bright red 
berries are as satisfying to the eye as luscious ripe straw- 
berries are to the taste. We know you'll like it! Sun or shade. 
Hardy. 8-10 ft. 5-gal. containers, $3.50; gal. containers, $1.50. 
On page 51 you'll find a list of shrubs valuable for screen- 
ing purposes together with approximate heights and require- 
ments as to sun or shade. 
SWEET SPIRE 
Itea ilicifolia. Holly-leaved Sweet Spire. Has everything 
that English Holly has, except the berries, and other excel- 
lent qualities as well—dense glistening deeply-toothed foliage 
that rises on arching red branches well above the body of 
the plant, grace and symmetry in every line. Cut sprays for 
indoor decorating hold up amazingly well. We endorse this 
shrub heartily. Shade. Hardy. 5-7 ft. 5-gal. containers, 
$3.00; gal containers, 90c. 
ARABIAN JASMINE 
Jasminum sambac Grand Duke. For quality of fragrance 
we much prefer the flowers of this variety to gardenias 
which they somewhat resemble in form and also in the clear 
frosty whiteness of their bloom. The beauty of the two-inch 
flowers is richly enhanced by the dark interestingly curled 
leaves which accentuate the waxy freshness of the closely 
packed petals. Sun. 3-4 ft. Hardy. 5-gal. containers, $3.50; 
eal. containers, $1.50. 
Jasminum sambac Maid of Orleans. A Chinese lady in- 
forms us the white petaled bloom of this variety is used to 
flavor Jasmine tea. We haven’t made the acquaintance of 
Jasmine tea but if it tastes like this handsome Jasmine smells 
we probably have been missing something. The small glossy 
eight-petaled bloom, borne from June until November, per- 
fumes the air for yards around. Hardy except in very cold 
areas. Sun. 4-5 ft. 5-gal. containers, $3.50; gal. containers, 
$1.50. 
HAPPY LANTANAS 
To provide an array of riotous colors the Lantanas are 
unsurpassed. All through the warm months their cheerful 
blossoms of whitey orange, yellow, pink or lavender will 
brighten your garden immensely. They are easily grown in 
most any soil and though they sometimes freeze back in 
winter they are up and blooming again in a short time. Sun. 
Gal. containers, 60c. 
LANTANA Camara. 
Dwarf Orange. 4 ft. 
Dwarf Pink. Very compact. 
Dwarf Yellow. 2-3 ft. 
Dwarf White. 2-3 it. 
Lantana sellowiana. Trailing Lantana. For covering banks, 
low walls or parkings. Covers rapidly and throughly. Sun. 
Gal. containers, 60c; flats of 100 plants, $6.50.

DOUBLE FLOWERED TEA TREE 
Leptospermum scoparium Rose Double. When selecting 
shrubs for your garden you can’t afford to overlook this one. 
All through late winter, spring and early summer each airy 
branchlet is crowded with sparkling double pink bloom about 
the size of a ten-cent piece. The flowers last surprisingly long 
on the bush and you'll find them exceptionally usable in flower 
arrangements. Sun. Hardy. 6-8 ft. 5-gal. containers, $2.75; 
gal. containers, 90c. 
TEA’S WAX LEAF 
Ligustrum japonicum. I am Wax Leaf. I’m only three 
years old but I’m 4 feet tall and just about as wide. (Sounds 
like a Quiz Kid program.) My waxy’green clothes are always 
clean. I’m always calm and unruffled—or almost always. The 
only thing that really burns me up is some of those scrubby 
shrubs next door. Don’t see why somebody doesn’t dig them 
out and put in a few of my brothers and sisters. If you have 
a spot you want screened in, if it’s a trimmed hedge you 
need or just a single specimen shrub, my relatives and I will 
do you a job you'll be proud of. We enjoy either sun or shade 
and will grow to 8 or 10 feet, if you don’t keep us pruned. 
And we don’t mind cold weather a bit. See you in the garden! 
Balled, 3-4 ft., $4.50; 2-3 ft., $3.00; 5-gal. containers, $2.75; 
gal. containers, 85c. 
‘Ligustrum japonicum rotundifolium. A low, ‘compact, 
dark green shrub with l-in. substantial leaves that are inter- 
estingly curled and crinkled. Short stiff spikes of fragrant, 
lilac-like flowers of ivory white. Plant in shade and it will 
be happy—so will you. Hardy. 2-3 ft. 5-gal. containers, 
$3.00; gal. containers, 90c.
