EVERGREEN SHRUBS 
ARISTOCRATS OF THE GARDEN 
Leading the procession of garden beauty from Spring through 
Fall to Spring again, the enduring loveliness of the broadleaved Ever- 
green Shrubs has well earned for them the title—Aristocrats of the 
Garden. 
Their permanent year round, broad green foliage of many shades 
and size of leaf lends a delightful and pleasing note to all plantings. 
The attractive contrasts they furnish with other plants heightens the 
garden interest. The climax to the beauty of these perfect plants is 
the wealth of bloom they turnish in a glorious range of color and deli- 
cacy of flower. 
Most ot these Evergreen 
Shrubs thrive happily in par- 
tial or deep shade and we in 
New England are fortunate in 
having, in general, the acid 
soil conditions they require 
fcr best growth.
