HELLEBORUS niger. Christmas Rose. The 
things we particularly like about this hardy 
perennial are its big polished hand-shaped 
leaves, that are as attractive in winter as in 
summer, and its habit of perfecting its 2-inch 
star-shaped purple blooms in mid-winter. 
Individual flowers last for weeks. Shade.

REHMANNIA 
Bright pink flowers in lavish quantities. 
SOUTHERN MAGNOLIA. For a striking espalier. 
Espaliers 
Espalier plants have many uses and ad- 
vantages. In narrow spaces, where walk or 
drive crowds close to walls, these trained 
shubs will artistically fill spaces that other- 
wise could not be planted. As all flowers turn 
to the light, blooms of flowering shrubs, such 
as Camellias, may be more readily seen and 
appreciated than when shrubs are grown in 
conventional form. 
Trained on 5 ft. by 512 ft. trellises. Some 
slow growing varieties on smaller trellises.
