GERALDTON WAX FLOWER. 
Waxy pink blooms for flower arrangements. 
DEEP BLUE PLUMBAGO 
Ceratostigma willmottianum. If you have a 3-foot sunny 
spot in your garden, and we’re sure you must have, you 
shouldn’t be without this blue-eyed Chinese beauty. From 
mid-summer until winter the plant is thickly peppered with 
amazing Clusters of brilliant blue. Sun. 3 feet. Hardy. 5-gal. 
containers, $3.00; gal. containers, $1.00. 
GERALDTON WAX FLOWER 
Chamaelaucium ciliatum. As a source of cut flowers no 
other shrub of recent introduction will supply you as many 
colorful blooms as this variety. In late winter the plump deep 
pink buds open to lovely waxy pink blooms that continue in 
generous quantities for months. When cut the flowers will 
last for several weeks. Mild, pleasing fragrance. Graceful, 
airy foliage. Grows best in well drained soil. Prune lightly 
after blooming season. Sun. Hardy. 8-10 ft. 5-gal. con- 
tainers, $3.50; gal. containers, $1.25. 
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, 2-2% ft., $4.50; 114-2 ft., $3.50; 5-gal. 
containers, $3.25; 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 marvel 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, $3.00; 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, $3.00; 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, $3.00; gal. containers, $1.00. 
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., $8.50; 2-3 ft., $4.50; 5-gal. containers, $3.50; gal. con- 
tainers, $1.00. 
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. 5-gal containers, $2.75; gal. containers, 75c.
