ornamental. Its deep green, glossy healthy foliage, fragrant, chaste 
Carissa grandiflora. 
white flowers and red plum-like fruits give satisfaction the year around. 
It is hardy, stands abuse although the sharp spines concealed under the

BURMESE PLUMBAGO 
Ceratostigma griffithi. A low growing spreading shrub about two feet 
It makes a mass of branches 
well clothed with bronzy green foliage and quantities of brilliant blue 
flowers throughout the autumn months. Just one of the finest dwarf 
plants we can offer. Quite hardy. Gal. 75c. 
high and several across when well grown. 
Night Scented Jasmine 
Cestrum parqui. For ordinary planting, this shrub would rate a place 
in the screen planting or where attention would not be important, for 
the dull, light green foliage and inconspicuous light yellow tubular 
flowers are neither outstanding, but when evening comes, the delicate 
perfume given out by the flowers is entrancing and not overpowering. 
Gardens for evening enjoyment depend on this shrub. Sun or part shade, 
6 feet. Gal. 70c, 5-gal. $2.95.

Geraldton Wax Flower 
Chamaclaucium ciliatum. Cut fiowers that last? And are beautiful? 
Well, here is the answer to your question. In the last few years since 
its introduction, this shrub has raided even the New York cut flower 
market and before the war quantities of cut sprays were shipped east. 
It makes a tall 5 to 8 foot shrub with graceful branches, heath-like 
foliiage and sprays of delicate five-petaled flowers of wax-like struc- 
ture in white and pink with deep maroon-colored cups as centers. Sun, 
and dry porous soil is best. Gal. 95c, 5-gal. $3.50. 
Fairy Butterflies 
Chorizema varium. The bright flame pea is one of the most gratify- 
ing of small, low growing shrubs. It makes a low, bushy plant, seldom 
over a foot high and when in bloom has no equal for brilliance. The 
plants are literally covered in winter with masses of orange-scarlet pea- 
shaped flowers. Very showy and attractive it presents a neat appear- 
ance at other times with its deep green small round leaves. Gal. 75c. 
Rock Rose 
Cistus ladaniferous maculatus. Just ask for Rock Rose when you want 
a low bushy plant for a specimen about 2 to 3 feet high with deep 
green foliage and quantities of white flowers. The hotter the weather 
and the more the sunshine the greater the bloom. Each petal has a dark 
maroon spot near the base. Spring flowering. Gal. 75c¢, 5-gal. $3.50. 
Lily of the Valley Bush 
Clethra arborea. A large specimen shrub with attractive 4-inch long 
shiny green leaves. In late summer it produces masses of long panicles 
of little white flowers just like those of Lily of the Valley, hence the 
name. In partial shade it is unsurpassed as an ornamental shrub. 
Gal. $1.25, 5-gal. $4.25.
