Euonymus radicans (Wintercreeper) 
Low procumbent shrub. May be trailing and rooting, or climbing branches, 
sometimes reaching a height of several feet. The rich green foliage is carried 
all winter. It is at its best when planted against a wall or building where 
it will climb for several feet and grow in decorative beauty year by year. 
It belongs to a class of very worthy shrubs. Hardy evergreen. Beautiful in 
rockeries or when hanging over walls. A very superior ground cover.

Euonymus radicans coloratus (Purple leaf Wintercreeper) 
A trailing evergreen form of unsurpassed merit. Can be used effectively as 
a ground cover, or to train against wall or rocks in natural beauty. The 
foliage which is always good, is at the height of its glory when in the autumn 
it takes on the rich colorings of red and bronze that are carried through the 
winter. Very hardy.

Gaultheria procumbens (Wintergreen] 
This is the little plant which produces the true wintergreen flavor and from 
which wintergreen oil is extracted. There is nothing with which it can be 
compared for the reason that it is in a class by itself. It is a sturdy, hardy 
little subject flourishing northward into Canada and well to the southward 
particularly in elevated regions. The tiny leaves are nicely rounded, deep 
green and glossy and take on rich shadings of deep red in the autumn. Grows 
to a height of only 4 to 6 inches but produce a matted ground covering. Bears 
bright red berries in great abundance. These berries, which are edible, re- 
main on the plants until the following summer. Children often take delight 
in gathering them as well as the tender young leaves for their sweet winter- 
green flavor. When food is scarce in the winter season they form a part of 
the food of game birds. The fine foliage, the small, delicate, pink, bell- 
shaped flowers, the brilliant red berries and its hardiness combine to make it 
one without peer in its class. To know this delightful little plant is to ad- 
mire and love it and it should occupy a place in every garden where it will 
grow. Along with its other merits it is easy to handle.

Genista hispanica (Spanish Broom} 
Sometimes called Spanish Gorse. Exceedingly dense rounded evergreen about 
2 feet high spreading 3 to 4 feet. Shapely and attractive in the flower and 
in the foliage which conceals numerous thin sharp spines. Like the tiger’s 
velvety paw, the fine foliage completely conceals the ferocious claws hid- 
den underneath. Hardy and has unexcelled merit for special plantings. A 
splendid shrub.
