HIBISCUS 
From May until December, and during some warm years 
all winter, these huge flowered beauties provide a satisfying 
display of both warm and subdued colors. Fertilized freely, 
they will grow rapidly and bloom heavily the same season 
they are planted. Plant in sun. Hardy, except in cold loca- 
tions. 6-8 ft.

HYDRANGEAS 
Display their huge panicles of colorful florets in June and 
in some years continue through August. The Macrophylla va- 
riety attains a larger size than the Hybrids but its flowers are 
smaller. Prune back flowering branches to three strong buds 
immediately after the blooming period. Require some shade 
and plenty of water. Hardy. Either Macrophylla or French 
Hybrids, 5-gal. containers, $3.00; gal. containers, 90c. 
GOLDEN DOLLARS 
Hypericum patulum henryi. We are quite partial to this 
outstanding plant for almost too many reasons to enumerate. 
In the first place its big golden blossoms are carried through 
most of the year. The bronze tipped willowy branches appear 
clean and cool through all seasons. Frosty winter nights 
paint the lower leaves in brilliant shades of red and gold. As 
the plant grows to only 2 or 3 feet it is not too large to fit in 
most anywhere. May be planted in full sun or in shade. 
However, if planting against a wall an east or north exposure 
is preferable. Hardy. Balled, 2-2% ft., $3.50; 5-gal. contain- 
ers, $2.75; gal. containers, 75¢, 
HOLLIES 
Ilex altaclarensis Wilson. Without doubt has the most 
exquisitely lovely foliage of any of the Holly family. The 
deeply toothed leaves are enormous, growing to four inches 
or more in length and possess a sheen that is almost mirror- 
like. Add big red berries and you have a plant that is an 
aristocrat among aristocrats. Seems to grow more rapidly 
than other Hollies. Part shade. Hardy. 8-10 ft. Gal. con- 
tainers, $2.00. 
Ilex aquifolium. English Holly. A shapely Holly all dressed 
up in brilliant red berries and dark spiny toothed leaves is 
always a center of attraction. Plant a few English Holly in 
your Camellia beds and see how admirably two different fam- 
ilies can get along together. They are not at all human, we 
assure you. Female plants bear berries but only when male 
plant is in immediate vicinity. Will grow in sun or shade, 
but do not plant against hot walls facing south or west, Ap- 
preciate leaf mold. Hardy. 5-gal. containers, $4.00; gal. con- 
tainers, $1.35. 
Ilex cornuta. Chinese Holly. A hardy long-lived shrub 
notable for its big bright berries and lustrous foliage. During 
the Christmas season its heavily berried branches are greatly 
prized for indoor decorations. Seems to feel equally at home 
in sun or shade. Appreciate leaf mold. Balled. 2-2% ft. $6.50; 
5-gal. containers, $4.00; gal. containers, $135 0 

ILEX CORNUTA BURFORD. Big red berries, smooth 
bright foliage. See page 14. 
PHOTINIA ARBUTIFOLIA. Red berries for the 
Holiday season. See page 17.
