FRAGRANT MEXICAN ORANGE 
Choisya ternata. Few other shrubs possess the well 
groomed highly polished appearance of Choisya. Through- 
out the year the plant is as bright and cheerful as a new 
spring hat. A dense symmetrical shrub, crowned in spring 
and early summer with waxy white flowers of refreshing fra- 
grance. Thrives, with good drainage, in either shade or sun. 
4-6 ft. Hardy. Balled, 1%-2 ft., $3.25; 5-gal. containers, $3.00; 
gal. containers, $1.00. 
PANSY FACES 
Chorizema varium. They outdo the Pansies in intense 
coloring. Each small pansy-shaped flower is a riot of golden 
orange, flaming scarlet and vivid purple. Through late win- 
ter and spring every slender branchlet is lined with these 
spectacular blooms. As the plant is neat in all seasons and 
grows only to 2 feet it may be tucked away most anywhere. 
You will marvei at its colorful performance. Not as perma- 
nent as most other shrubs. Sun or shade. Hardy. Gal. con- 
tainers, 85c. 
HARDY ROCK ROSES 
Cistus corbariensis. One reason we are so partial to this 
low spreading shrub is that the dark daintily veined leaves 
present such a clean bright appearance even in winter time. 
In spring and early summer the plants are weighted with 
2-inch single flowers of glowing frosty white. A remarkably 
fine shrub for planting beneath low windows or along low 
porches or, in fact, anywhere that a low dense plant is desir- 
able. Requires good drainage. Sun. Hardy. 2-2'% ft. 5-gal. 
containers, $2.75; gal. containers, 85c. 
Cistus ladaniferus maculatus. Might well be called the 
“Shrub of a Thousand Blooms” for in early summer the plant 
is alive with big single white-skirted blooms that will thrill 
you with their fresh loveliness. Each glowing petal is hand- 
somely marked with maroon at the base. Sun. Hardy. 3-4 
ft. and about as broad as tall. Requires good drainage. 5-gal. 
containers, $2.75; gal. containers, 85c. 
Cistus purpureus. If you are a bit inclined to get “down in 
the mouth” you'll find this plant a grand little ‘‘cheerer 
upper”. When you feel one of those bad days coming on slip 
out to the garden and pay a visit to this colorful little lady. 
She'll put color in your cheeks and a song in your heart. Big 
single pink bloom of crepe paper texture on a well rounded 
3-4 ft. shrub. Requires good drainage. Sun. Hardy. 5-gal. 
containers, $2.75; gal. containers, 90c. 
LILY OF THE VALLEY TREE 
Clethra arborea. A handsome lush foliaged small tree of 
just the right size to fit in a small lawn area. The bright 
glossy leaves, 4 inches in length, provide a natural setting 
for the dainty racemes of sweet smelling white blossoms. 
Will provide plenty of thrills if planted in a cool moist loca- 
tion. Half hardy. 15-20 ft. 5-gal. containers, $3.25; gal. con- 
tainers, $1.25. 
GRACEFUL COCCULUS 
Cocculus laurifolius. If you do not have this shrub in your 
garden we advise you to put it on your must list right now. 
Bright green arching branches are heavily strung with pol- 
ished 6-inch leathery leaves that fairly sparkle in the sun- 
light. You'll be amazed at its fresh clean beauty. One might 
well imagine that a fairy or elf (or maybe a Boy Scout) 
gave it a bath each night before it went to bed. Grows to six 
or eight feet and with a little pruning will be well clothed 
right down to the ground. Hardy. Sun or part shade. Balled, 
3-4 ft., $7.50; 5-gal. containers, $3.25; gal. containers, 90c. 
BREATH OF HEAVEN 
Coleonema pulchrum. During damp weather or if brushed 
against this airy heath-like shrub diffuses a sweet fragrance 
similar to Lemon Verbena. In spring and early summer 
countless thousands of small pink starry flowers are crowded 
over the entire plant. May be kept quite compact if pruned 
two or three times during summer. Hardy and drought re- 
sistant. Sun. 2 ft. Balled, 1%-2 ft., $3.00; 5-gal. containers, 
$2.75; gal. containers, 75c. 

ASTER FRUTICOSA. Covers itself with blue Asters 
in summer. See page 4. 
Coleonema album. Similar to the foregoing variety except 
the flowers are white and the plant grows a little broader than 
tall. Prefers a light soil and good drainage. Hardy except in 
very cold areas. Sun. 2-2% ft. Balled, 15-18 in., $2.75; 5-gal. 
containers, $2.75; gal. containers, 85c. 
WHITE GLORYBIND 
Convolvulus cneorum. Because it needs a minimum of 
water, little pruning or other attention we consider this 
plant an excellent one for the lazy gardener. Just give it a 
hot, sunny spot where its feet will stay dry and it will be 
happy. Furry silver-gray foliage and single white morning 
glory-like flowers through summer. Hardy. 1'%-2 ft. Gal. 
containers, 90c. 
YELLOW AUSTRALIAN FUCHSIA 
Correa magnifica. A handsome upright shrub densely 
clothed with good sized round leaves, dark olive green on 
the upper surface and furry brown beneath. Large pendant 
Fuchsia-like bloom, chartreuse in color, are provided gener- 
ously in winter. Quite different from any shrub you've ever 
seen. We think you'll like it. 3-4 ft. Hardy. Sun or part 
shade. 5-gal. containers, $3.00; gal. containers, $1.25. 
Correa harrisi. We should have named this variety the 
“Surprise Shrub” for it stages a grand little surprise party 
right in mid-winter when most shrubs are lax in their efforts. 
Inch-long, scarlet orange bloom, tubular in shape, hang grace- 
fully from the slender stems in profusion. Branches are 
strung with dark, broad leaves to 34 inch in length. Sun or 
light shade. Hardy. 1%-2 ft. Gal. containers, $1.25. 
BRILLIANT COTONEASTERS 
Cotoneaster conspicua decora. An outstanding new pros- 
trate Cotoneaster that is excitingly lovely at all times. In 
spring each glistening small leaved branchlet is tipped with 
maroon. By mid-May the entire plant is alive with small 
glowing white blossoms and through fall and winter red 
berries are brilliantly displayed. Sun or part shade. Hardy. 
Grows to 2 feet in height and 3 to 4 feet broad. 5-gal. con- 
tainers, $2.75; gal. containers, 90c.
