Broad-Xeaned Cowspneeive 
Broad-leaved evergreens include a group of shrubs and perennials that in more favorable climates hold their leaves the 
year around. However, in this section, most of them shed when sub-zero weather comes, but leaf out again in early spring. 
Besides those listed below, Teucrium and Santolina (See page 5), are often listed as broad-leaved evergreens.

The above photograph EUONYMOUS PATENS or WINTERBERRY (the three shrubs under the window) shows how this 
valuable shrub can be used in pleasing combination with evergreens and how they help break the monotony or stiffness of 
all-evergreen planting. 
In searching for something besides evergreens for use in foundation plantings, the number of shrubs is very few indeed 
that will remain or can be kept small enough to be used in the foundation planting of the small home or the low ranch- 
type house. This beautiful Broad-leaved Evergreen Shrub, with its glossy, deep green foliage and compact habit of growth, 
certainly does much to solve this problem. In addition to its attractive foliage, it bears clusters of flowers in July and is 
magnificent with its scarlet-red berries when in full fruit in late fall or early winter. We grow two types: The SMALL 
LEAF, which has smaller leaves, is more dwarf and compact but seldom does much fruiting; and the LARGE LEAF TYPH, 
which grows 38 to 4 feet high but can be kept smaller by trimming, bears flowers and fruit as described and pictured above. 
The following prices are for BALLED AND BURLAPPED SPECIMENS:
