BROADLEAVED 
Evergreen Shrubs 
On the following pages are arranged alphabetically the really 
choice, showy kinds. No plants in gardens are easier to care 
for, once planted on suitable sites. There is, indeed, little one can 
do to improve some. 
Their very name tells the treatment: Broad evergreen leaves tran- 
spire water constantly, so extra moisture is needed when planting 
and all year. Mulching helps conserve soil moisture. All easy to 
grow—Acid-soil kinds, however, must have acid soil.
