ORNAMENTAL SHRUBS 
Ornamental shrubs look better when planted three or more of a 
kind grouped together, if the 
size of the plot will permit. They are suitable for border planting around the walks and lawns and 
also the low growing varieties for foundation pl 
easier to select shrubs for particular purposes, 
anting around the house and porch. To make it 
we have adopted letters to denote the average 
height to which the various shrubs grow at maturity. 
“tT” denotes shrubs 12 to 15 feet. 
“TL” denotes shrubs 8 to 12 feet. 
“M” denotes shrubs 6 to 8 feet. 
“S” denotes shrubs 3 to 6 feet. 
“TD” denotes shrubs 2 to 3 feet.
