Evergreen 
Shrubs 
In this group fall those desirable 
plants that bloom, yet remain green 
all Winter. Most are slow-growing 
and do not attain great height. All 
will do well in the shade. 
RHODODENDRONS 
Handsome evergreen, flowering shrubs 
of unrivalled beauty and charm without 
which no garden is complete. There are in- 
teresting native and hybrid varieties rang- 
ing in colors from white and pink to lilac, 
purple, and red shades. Of easy culture 
under proper soil conditions, which should 
be acid and moist but well-drained. Some 
varieties prefer shade while many others 
will flower best in a partly sunny but pro- 
tected location. 
Carolinianum (Carolina Rhododendron). 
Of somewhat dwarf growth, this native 
variety combines well with the others in 
groups or borders. Flowers vary from 
almost white to deep pink, opening in 
late May. 15-18 in., $4.50 each. 
Catawbiense (Catawba Rhododendron). 
One of the best of our native Rhododen- 
drons. Excellent dark green foliage 
studded with large, lilac-purple flowers

largest of our native types with long, 
pointed leaves and white flowers. An ex- 
cellent variety for naturalizing. It pre- 
fers complete shade, where the foliage 
will assume a rich, dark green. The

by the new foliage, opening, as they do, 
in late June. 2-3 ft., $7.50 each; 3-4 ft., 
$9.00 each; 4—5 ft., $12.00 each; 5-6 ft.,

green shrubs, bright scarlet berries from
