TEXAS RANGER 
Leucophyllum frutescens (texanum). When they are na- 
tives of Texas we know they are rugged and that’s where this 
beauty originates. Thin silvery foliaged branches form a 
dense mound to 4 feet or more in height and about the same 
in width and along in fall the handsome shrub surprises us 
with many pink snapdragon-like bloom. Plant a few of these 
shrubs with dark foliaged varieties. You'll enjoy the con- 
trasting shades. Very drought resistant. Hardy. Sun. Gal. 
containers, 90c. 
TEA’S WAX LEAF 
Ligustrum japonicum. We have maintained for years that 
this is our most valuable foliage shrub. Through burning 
heat, freezing cold or violent winds our good friend always 
looks neat and presentable. Polished deep green leaves about 
2 inches in length form a dense mass of cool foliage that is 
always at its best. If allowed to grow unpruned the plant 
attains a height of 8 to 10 feet, with approximately the 
same spread, and is well furnished right down to the ground. 
Trimmed, the plant may be kept under a 4-foot window 
and grown as a hardy hedge, we assure you, there is no 
plant of greater virtue. It feels equally at home in sun or 
light shade. Balled, 3%4-4% ft., $6.75; 5-gal. containers, 
$2.75; gal. containers, 75c. 
CREAMY WHITE LOVELINESS 
Loropetalum chinense. Forms a dense mound of thin 
stems and dark inch-long leaves. In spring the entire plant 
is virtually smothered under a blanket of soft creamy white 
bloom. The shrub is not widely known but valued highly by 
those who grow it. Hardy except in coldest areas. Sun or 
light shade. 3-5 feet and as broad as tall. 5-gallon containers, 
$3.29; 
DWARF OREGON GRAPE 
Mahonia aquifolium compacta. Combines dark glossy 
spiny-toothed leaves, racemes of bright yellow bloom and 
purple berries to form a neat compact shrub. Many of the 
leaves turn to garish shades of red in fall and winter. You'll 
find the plant most useful in either sun or shade. Hardy, 2%
