Euonymus 
The Evergreen varieties of Euonymus are listed under 
Evergreen shrubs. Here are listed the upright, deciduous 
shrub types whose decorative value lies in their brilliantly 
colored foliage and attractive fruits of autumn. 
Euonymus alatus Winged Euonymus 
Most desirable shrub of densely branched, compact habit, with yel- 
lowish flowers, followed by red fruit. The foliage turns a brilliant 
red in autumn. Twigs have four corky wings. Useful for thick screens 
or showy masses of foliage.

E. alatus compactus Dwarf Winged Euonymus 
A dwarf type of the above, forming an extremely dense, slow 
growing shrub whose foliage in autumn is even more brilliant than 
E. alatus, and in the Arnold Arboretum it has caused as much com- 
ment for its brilliancy as any shrub growing there. Its dense habit of 
growth makes it an ideal shrub for use in much the same manner as 
the evergreen Boxwood is used, either as specimens or accents in a 
garden. It is also ideal for use as a low growing dense hedge.

Forsythia — Goldenbell 
Spring is really spring when the Forsythias bloom! Some- 
how they are the most welcome of the early shrubs because 
their tender yellow blossoms so definitely belong to that 
season and no other; and while they seem no stronger than 
a cloud of yellow butterflies, they defy and defeat winter at 
the door of spring! One Forsythia shining against a clump 
of evergreens is a pretty sight, but a clump of them, a bor- 
der, or a hedge of them is a miracle of loveliness, from mid- 
April to early May. In acid soils, Forsythias benefit from fair 
applications of lime. 
Forsythia intermedia Border Forsythia 
An erect-growing shrub, but when full grown the branches arch 
gracefully, and bear clouds of deep yellow flowers.

Hibiscus — Rose of Sharon 
An erect, sturdy, treelike shrub ultimately 10 to 12 feet 
high, with a broad head and rather formal appearance. It 
produces large, showy flowers in August when few other 
shrubs are in bloom. Excellent for specimen or screen plant- 
ings, and succeeds in all soils. The use of lime will help over- 
come its slight tenderness in northern New England.
