Arctostaphylos uva-ursi. A most welcome addition to our 
list of trailing shrubs. Spreads a cool mat of slender twigs 
and dark, inch-long leaves that maintains its trim appearance 
throughout the year. In early Spring tiny white Chinese 
lanterns hang on fragile stems, nodding with the slightest 
breeze. We like it very, very much. Hardy. Spreads to 4 
feet. Sun or light shade. Gal. containers, $1.35. 
BLUE SHRUB ASTER 
Aster fruticosus. An importation from South Africa that 
thrives here if planted in a well drained location. In late 
spring and early summer the dense heather-like foliage is 
nearly covered with bright lavender-blue asters. Requires 
little water, no fertilizer and practically no attention. Hardy. 
2-3 ft. Sun. Gal. containers, 85c. 
GOLDDUST PLANT 
Aucuba japonica Golddust. A thrilling plant for use in 
pots or planted in any shaded spot. Huge heavy green leaves, 
handsomely spotted with yellow and gold, line the erect 
sturdy stems. The artistically marked foliage provides a 
pleasing contrast when planted with camellias or other shade 
loving plants. Hardy. 4 to 6 ft. 5-gal. containers, $3.00; gal. 
containers, 90c. 
Aucuba japonica. For that shaded spot that has been wor- 
rying you we would like to suggest this aristocratic variety. 
Huge lustrous leaves and dark green upright branches form 
a thicket of shining foliage. 6 feet. Hardy. 5-gal. containers, 
$3.00; gal. containers, 90c. 
INSPIRING AZALEAS 
lf there are any plants that enjoy blooming more than the 
azaleas we haven't discovered them. Whether it is the 
Kurume with its sudden burst of single or semi-double flow- 
ers or the Indica with its more protracted bloom and larger 
flowers—well, we find we must have both kinds and plenty 
of them. See page 34 for planting and cultural directions. 
Hardy. 

AZALEA ALBERT ELIZABETH—As dainty and fresh as the 
breath of spring. 
INDICA AZALEAS. $2.00 to $25.00. Not all sizes in all 
varieties. Magnificent blooms to 3 inches across, mostly dou- 
ble or ruffled, over several months. 
Albert Elizabeth. One of the loveliest and most popular. 
The large double white flowers are edged with a varying 
band of rose red. It starts blooming early and continues for 
a long time, often from November through April. The foliage 
is a deep shining green on a plant of neat, regular growth. 
Charles Encke. A medium sized single Azalea of pink 
edged with white that blooms late in the season. It has small 
dark green foliage. 
Charles Encke Sport. Like the plant of which it is a sport, 
the flowers are medium sized and single but the color is a 
pleasing shade of salmon. Another Azalea for the late season. 
Eclaireur. One of the darkest of Azaleas, a deep purple- 
red, almost wine color. It is a semi-double blooming heavily 
in mid-season. Its dark green leaves are of medium size. 
Jean Hearrens. The blossom is a large double medium 
rose. The shrub is a tall grower with dull green leaves. Blooms 
early. 
Louis Vanhoutte. Large, semi-double deep rose bloom 
coming in mid-season. Grows quite tall unless pruned. Large 
leaves. 
Mme. Petrick. Blossoms like a small rose both in form 
and color, a double rose pink Azalea. Dull green foliage on 
an upright shrub. 
Paul Schame. Another favorite. Large double rich salmon 
flowers produced in profusion from as early as October on 
through April. 

AZALEA PAUL SCHAM E—Will g:ve you many colorful 
months of bloom.
