Rosedale’s Evergreen Flowering Shrubs 
By far the largest group of ornamentals for Southern California, 
the Evergreen Flowering group are also among the most popular. By 
retaining their foliage the year around, they add greatly to the home 
planting—as pleasing in winter as in summer. The flowers and also 
the fruits of some are extremely showy. One can always find some 
variety in bloom. 
Out of this great assortment ot shrubs, we at Rosedale’s have se- 
lected the best for general planting. When making selections, care 
should be taken to consider the ultimate height of the shrub, and 
preferred exposure, as for sun or shade. The most common mistake 
among home planters is to set a tall-growing plant in front of a win- 
dow, which in a few years is obscured by a tangle of branches. 
By the same token, very gratifying results may be had by planting 
quick-growing plants like Hibiscus, Abutilon, Privets and similar 
shrubs, but one must be ready to replace them at a later date before 
they get leggy and impossible to handle. 
We have indicated in the descriptions the height and exposure best 
for each item. When no culture is given it is assumed the plant will 
do well in sun or light shade under average garden conditions.
