LILY-OF-THE-VALLEY 
(Convallaria majalis) 
Lily-of-the-Valley are breathtaking when in 
bloom and thrive under adverse shaded conditions, 
excellent for urban or rural culture where direct 
sunlight is normally withheld, either due to shade 
from trees or buildings. They nestle comfortably 
under higher growing plants or may be used for 
that shaded corner. 
Our plants are not the ordinary run of “pips” 
which are normally sold, but strong fiteld-grown 
clumps, which assure you of a good stand of the 
finest flowers and longer stems for cutting. 
Strong field-grown clumps: 3 for $2.00; 10 for 
$5.50; 25 for $12.50.

Hedera Helix. Finest evergreen ground- 
cover for deep shade. See page 44.

and where grass cannot get rooted. Sun.

Pachysandra. Forshaded locations and under 
trees where grass fails. Excellent for an edg- 
ing in front of foundation plantings. Sun, 
partial shade or heavy shade. See page 37. 
Vinca. Shade and half shade under trees. 
See page 38.
