YESTERDAY AND TODAY. Changes color 
with the passing days. See page 5. 
Coleonema album. Similar to the foregoing variety except 
the flowers are white and the plant grows a little broader than 
tall. Prefers a light soil and good drainage. Hardy except in 
very cold areas. Sun. 2-2% ft. Balled, 1%4-2 ft., $3.25; 5-wal. 
containers, $2.75; gal. containers, 85c. 
PALM-LIKE DRACAENA 
Cordyline indivisa. Because of their lofty palm-like ap- 
pearance these plants are particularly effective for planting 
at corners of buildings or against high walls. Heavy trunks, 
clothed when young but naked with age, generally rise to 
6 to 8 feet before branching. Their long, pendulous, strap- 
like leaves form a heavy artistic head. When combined with 
New Zealand Flax their tropical appearance is highly effec- 
tive. Sun. Hardy. 10-15 ft. 5-gal. containers, $3.75; gal. 
containers, $1.25. 
YELLOW AUSTRALIAN FUCHSIA 
Correa magnifica. A handsome upright shrub densely 
clothed with good sized round leaves, dark olive green on 
the upper surface and furry brown beneath. Large pendant 
Fuchsia-like bloom, chartreuse in color, are provided gener- 
ously in winter. Quite different from any shrub you’ve ever 
seen. We think you'll like it. 3-4 ft. Hardy. Sun or part 
shade. 5-gal. containers, $3.50; gal. containers, $1.25. 
BRILLIANT COTONEASTERS 
Cotoneaster conspicua decora. An outstanding new pros- 
trate Cotoneaster that is excitingly lovely at all times. In’ 
spring each glistening small leaved branchlet is tipped with 
maroon. By mid-May the entire plant is alive with small 
glowing white blossoms and through fall and winter red 
berries are brilliantly displayed. Sun or part shade. Hardy. 
Grows to 2 feet in height and 3 to 4 feet broad. 5-gal. con- 
tainers, $3.00; gal. containers, 90c. 
Cotoneaster lactea (Parneyi). Most desirable of the taller 
varieties of Cotoneaster. Graceful arching branches well 
strung with dark foliage and in spring, clouds of small white 
bloom. Countless clusters of deep red berries follow the 
bloom and last through winter. Cut sprays provide plenty of 
colorful berries during the Christmas season. Hardy. Sun. 
6-8 ft. We would like to settle one controversial matter here. 
There are no varieties of Cotoneaster or Pyracantha, bear- 
ing conspicuous berries, the birds will not eat. However, 
you will experience less bird trouble with this variety than 
with any other. 5-gal. containers, $2.75; gal. containers, 75c. 

ROCK ROSE. White with yellow center. 

PRINCESS FLOWER. Clothed in royal 
purple with green and bronze accessories. 
See page 20. 

Cotoneaster procumbens. A dainty little shrub for the rock 
garden, for parking or for planting under low windows and 
along low porches. Graceful branches lined with dark glossy 
minute leaves. Small frosty white flowers and glistening red 
berries.. Grows to 8 or 10 inches tall and 3 ft. in width. Hardy. 
Sun. 5-gal. containers, $3.00; gal. containers, $1.00. 
CANARY BIRD TREE 
Crotalaria agatiflora. Spectacular green and yellow flowers 
that so closely resemble Canary birds you almost expect 
them to burst into song. Fern-like tropical foliage. The plant 
grows unbelievably fast. Sun. May be badly frosted during 
cold winters but usually recovers quickly with warm weather. 
Should be pruned heavily about March 1. 6-10 ft. 5-gal. con- 
tainers, $3.50; gal. containers, $1.25. 
DWARF BEAUTY 
Cuphea hyssopifolia. A compact dwarf plant thickly cov- 
ered with very small leaves, that we find to be absolutely 
indispensable. For low hedges, either trimmed or untrimmed, 
around beds or walks it is always attractive. Also to cover 
low brick work along open porches. Through most of the 
year it is thickly peppered with tiny lavender flowers. Hardy. 
Sun or shade. 12 in. Gal. containers, 85c. 
FAIRY LANTERNS 
Daboecia cantabrica Alba. We have this happy little 
shrub in our shaded patio garden and there is not a day from 
March until November that the slender upright stems are 
not laden with glowing white lanterns. Dense dark heather- 
like foliage. Thrives in either sun or shade but its blooming 
season is lengthened by several months if planted in a shaded 
location. Feels perfectly at home in company with Begonias, 
Ferns and Primroses. For best results keep old flower stems 
removed. Hardy. 1 ft. Gal. containers, $1.00. 
FRAGRANT DAPHNE 
No garden should be without one or more Daphnes. Their 
spicily fragrant clusters of white or pink blooms are among 
the first to show color in spring. Their glossy foliage pre- 
sents a clean polished appearance in all seasons. Daphnes 
require good drainage. Never plant them deeper than they 
were planted in the containers in which you receive them. 
Do not allow soil to wash in about the main stem of the plant. 
Hardy. 3-4 ft. 5-gal. containers, $5.00; gal. containers, $1.50. 
Daphne odora White. Clear white. Substantial glossy green 
foliage. 
Daphne odora Yellowedge. White tinged with rosy pink. 
Varnished dark green leaves edged with creamy white.
