Hardy Evergreen Shrubs 
All B&B (Balled and Burlapped) except where otherwise noted 
The importance of this class of plant material has 
long been recognized by many garden lovers. Since 
most are evergreen, they present an attractive ap- 
pearance in both summer and winter. They are 
comparatively slow growers, are easy to keep in 
bounds, and grow more beautiful with age. All of 
these varieties grow best in a somewhat acid soil, 
lightened by plenty of leaf-mold or peat moss, and 
some require protected locations for best results. 
Certain varieties may be used with success in plant- 
ings in the shade.
