CROTALARIA AGATIFLORA—Abundant summer bloom 
resembles small canary birds. 
FRAGRANT DAPHNE 
No garden should be without one or more Daphnes. Their 
spicily fragrant clusters of white or pink blooms are among 
the first to show color in spring. Their glossy foliage pre- 
sents a clean polished appearance in all seasons. And, if 
provided good drainage, they withstand any kind of weather. 
Enjoy part shade and an application of cottonseed meal with 
10% soil sulphur added in spring. Hardy. 3-4 ft. 5-gal. 
contaniers, $5.00; gal. containers, $1.85. 
Daphne odora. Clear white. Substantial glossy green 
foliage. 
Daphne odora Yellowedge. White tinged with rosy pink. 
Varnished dark green leaves edged with creamy white. 
ROSY DOMBEYA 
Dombeya wallichi. A shrub that does everything in a big 
way. Huge saucer sized leaves and enormous rosy pink 
bloom that resemble hydrangeas. Rapidly attains a height 
of 8 or 10 ft. Rather tender to frost but grows up quickly 
if frosted. Sun. 5-gal. containers, $3.50. 
PRIDE OF MADEIRA 
Echium fastuosum. Spreading, heavy stalked shrub, long 
hairy gray leaves. Tall, erect spikes of blue flowers in June. 
Good drainage and full sun. A little tender to frost. 4-5 ft. 
Gal. containers, 85c. 
WINTER BLOOMING HEATHER 
Erica mediterranea Dwarf. Forms a dense low mound of 
soft characteristic heather foliage. Short stemmed clusters 
of small bell-shaped purple bloom are borne close above the 
foliage. Grows to about 1% feet in height and 2% feet in 
width. Sun. Hardy. Balled, 1%-2 ft., $3.25; 5-gal. containers, 
$3.25; 1-gal. containers, $1.00. 
Erica melanthera Rosea. From October until April this 
astonishing shrub is so covered with little deep pink flowers 
that the foliage is almost obscured. Most desirable for indoor 
decorations as the cut flowers retain their freshness for many 
days. Soft dense foliage. Prune each year immediately after 
the blooming period. Use one-third peat when planting. 
Fertilize in Spring and mid-Summer with cottonseed meal 
with 10% soil sulphur added. Hardy. Sun. 6-8 ft. Balled, 
2-21 ft., $3.75; 5-gal. containers, $3.25; gal. containers, $1.00. 
WHITE AND CARMINE 
Escallonia organensis. We predict a great future for this 
outstanding shrub. The handsomely polished leaves and 
sturdy stems are richly shaded mahogany and the neat clus- 
ters of apple-blossom pink bloom appear in startling quanti- 
ties over the entire plant in summer and fall. When used for 
screening it will provide a dense cover to 6 or 8 ft. Hardy. 
Sun or part shade. 5-gal. containers, $3.00; gal. containers, 
$1.00. 
EUGENIA 
Eugenia paniculata australis (myrtifolia). One of our most 
successful hedge subjects as it grows densely and rapidly 
without too much trimming. May be cut to 3 or 4 ft. or al- 
lowed to grow to 6 or 8 ft. with equally good results. Used as 
a specimen plant and pruned in pyramid form it is often used 
to break corners of buildings or to frame large windows. 
Hardy except in coldest areas. Sun. 5-gal. containers, $3.25, 
gal. containers, 85c. 
PITANGA 
Eugenia uniflora. Unlike other varieties of eugenia this 
variety grows quite dense without pruning and remains full 
right down to the ground. The leaves are dark and hand- 
somely polished. In spring big crops of bright crimson fruit 
are artistically displayed and they are delightfully good to 
eat either out of hand or when made into jelly. 6-7 feet. 
Sun. Hardy except in very cold areas. 5-gal. containers, 
$3.00
