part of the food of game birds. The fine foliage, the small, delicate, pink, 
bell-shaped flowers, the brilliant red berries and its hardiness combine to 
make it one without peer in its class. To know this delightful little plant 
is to admire and love it and it should occupy a place in every garden where 
it will grow. Along with its other merits it is easy to handle. Offered this 
year for the first time. Each 10 100 1000

GENISTA (BROOMS) 
See also Cytisus 
Genista hispanica (Spanish Broom) 
Sometimes called Spanish Gorse. Exceedingly dense rounded evergreen about 
2 feet high spreading 3 to 4 feet. Shapely and attractive in the flower and in 
the foliage which conceals numerous thin sharp spines. Like the tiger’s velvety 
paw, the fine foliage completely conceals the ferocious claws hidden under- 
neath. Hardy and has unexcelled merit for special plantings. A splendid shrub.

Genista prostata 
The densest and most compact of all creeping brooms. Grows to a height of 
18 inches and so completely covers the ground that weéds cannot come 
through. Branches are small, gracefully fall over the ground, taking root, 
and so the plant spreads in a solid mass. Remarkably good for covering 
banks or slopes. Flowers are yellow and plentiful, and the foliage is fine 
green at all seasons.

from the main stem.

_ Gentiana acaulis clusi (Clusius Stemless Gentian) 
Small evergreen plants growing 2 to 3 inches high and 6 to 8 inches across. 
They are covered with enormous, short stemmed, trumpet shaped flowers, 
214 inches or more in length, of the marvelous deep, pure, gentian blue which 
has no equal in coloring in the entire flower kingdom. Single plants often 
produce 12 or 15 of the enormous flowers at one time. Plants bloom heavily 
in the spring and continue blooming less abundantly throughout the season. 
No small evergreen grows of more charm than the Gentian. Perfectly hardy.
