M. GRANDIFLORA. The great Bull Bay is a native evergreen 
which, when in a position it likes, sometimes reaches 80 feet, 
making a dark green pyramid on which will show, in places, 
the brown underside of some of the leaves. An impressive 
picture at any time, but when carrying its great white fragrant 
saucers, 7, 8, 9 and 10 inches across, there just isn’t anything 
in the world to compare with it. The trees bloom three to four 
months in summer, over which long period one may enjoy 
these great creamy white saucers with their attractive stamen 
mass. The bloom is followed by oval seed pods from which 
the brilliant red seeds protrude.

VINES 
Flowering vines make graceful drapery over arbors and walls, 
and when used to conceal an unsightly spot can serve a very good 
purpose. On a porch they provide shade and privacy. Fast grow- 
ing and colorful, they meet a distinct need in southern plantings. 
The number of vines available to the southern gardener offers a 
variety of effective uses.
