THE FREMONT NURSERY, FREMONT, OHIO 13 
TAXUS-YEW 
The Yews have only in recent years come into 
great prominence. Considered from all stand- 
points and taken as a whole they are probably 
the best of all for group landscape and founda- 
tion plantings and as individual specimens they 
are superb. They grow in most any soil, will with- 
stand drought better than any other class of 
evergreens. Do well in shade and, up to date, have 
not been affected by any insects or diseases. The 
nearest to an ideal evergreen. The different va- 
rieties give a choice of most any shape, upright, 
spreading, fan shape, globe, etc. All produce or- 
namental red berries. 
CAPITATA—This is the upright, Pyramidal 
form of the Japanese Yew. It has foliage similar 
to Cuspidata, and may be used with Cuspidata 
where an upright plant is needed, and does equally 
well in sun or heavy shade. 
CUSPIDATA—Upright, spreading growth and 
dense very dark foliage. Valuable because it is 
especially hardy and rich in appearance. 
CUSPIDATA ANDERSONS (Andersoni)—A 
more open graceful vase shaped variety with light 
green foliage. A fast grower. 
CUSPIDATA BREVIFOLIA—A very dwarf 
compact form with shorter leaves than the other 
forms. Very hardy and very valuable where a real 
dwarf is wanted. 
CUSPIDATA BROWNS (Browni)—Similar to 
Andersons but heavier foliage and a deeper green. 
CUSPIDATA HATFIELDS (Hatfieldi)—Very 
dark, almost black green, heavy needles, upright 
but broadening at top. One of the very best. 
CUSPIDATA SPREADING HATFIELDS— 
Similar to the above but more spreading. 
CUSPIDATA HICKSII—Very dark green, al- 
most black. Perfectly upright making a heavy 
dark columnar evergreen. 
CUSPIDATA HUNNEWELLI—Fan 
with bright green foliage. 
INTERMEDIA—Similar in type of foliage and 
coloring to Brevifolia hut a more upright and vig- 
orous grower, without a doubt growing twice as 
fast as Brevifolia. 
EVONYMOUS 
EVONYMOUS ERECTA—A dwarf form of Pa- 
tens, having smaller leaves which color well in 
the Fall and hang on till after heavy frosts. 
Grows about 3 or 4 feet tall and very bushy and 
compact. Extra fine for dry locations, under pro- 
shape 
tecting eaves and dry corners. 
EVONYMOUS VEGETUS—Listed under Vines, 
is used either as a vine or as a shrub. 

Rhododendrons 
EUVONYMOUS PATENS—A most charming and 
valuable evergreen shrub with thick glossy green 
leaves which remain on most all winter. Upright 
growing. 
ILEX or HOLLY 
Most Hollies are not self pollenizing and it is 
safer to use plants of both sexes in close prox- 
imity. 
AMERICAN (Opaca)—The one used for Christ- 
mas decorations. Deep green spiny leaves and 
brilliant red berries. Prefers a moist, well drain- 
ed soil and partial shade. Considered a little ten- 
der for our northern climate, but has gone through 
many cold winters here without injury. 
KALMIA 
MOUNTAIN LAUREL—The native variety 
found in the mountains of Pennsylvania and the 
Carolinas. 
MAHONIA 
AQUIFOLIUM—(Holly-leaved Mahonia) Hand- 
some native evergreen of medium size, with shin- 
ing, prickly leaves and showy, bright yellow flow- 
ers in May, followed by bluish berries. Quite 
useful in decorative planting for its neat habit 
and fine bronze-green leaves. 
PYRACANTHA 
FIRETHORN—Rather small dark green glossy 
leaves. Branches thorny. Small white flowers fol- 
lowed with bright red berries that almost obscure 
the bush. The Lalandi is the variety usually 
grown but we are now growing the Paucifolia, 
which is almost identical and has proved more 
hardy. 
RHODODENDRONS 
All Rhododendrons, Kalmias and Azaleas should 
have an acid soil. 
CAROLINIANUM—A native 
Carolinas. Dwarf rose colored. 
CATAWBIENSE—A native sort. Lavender pink. 
MAXIMUM—Pink and white. 
HARDY GRAFTED VARIETIES— 
We carry a limited supply of the leading va- 
rieties in different colors. 
BEAUTIFUL ROSES 
In our list you will find the best of the new 
varieties and the cream of all the old and tried 
variety of the 
sorts. The reputation of our roses is known far 
and wide. 
With the introduction of the many new and 
valuable varieties especially in the everblooming 
class it is now possible for anyone with a few 
feet of ground to have fresh fragrant roses all 
summer. We strongly advise Spring planting. 
All roses should have an open sunny location. 
Clay loam is an ideal soil but they will do well 
on most any well drained fertile soil.
