Other Native Plants 
Pieris Floribunda 
(MOUNTAIN FETTERBUSH) (EVERGREEN LILY- 
OF-THE-VALLEY SHRUB) Blooms in late April. 
White flowers, similar to the common Lily-of-the- 
Valley are borne at the ends of the branches. 
Dwarf, compact habit of growth and ever- 
green foliage make it a most desirable border, 
rock garden, or ground cover plant. (Photograph 
above). 
Vaccinium Corymbosum 
(HIGHBUSH BLUEBERRY) The Blueberry or 
Huckleberry fruits are well known and the plant 
itself is very attractive. The foliage during the 
spring is a fresh green, turning to bright scarlet 
shades in fall. The edible fruit is borne in late 
August. 
Leiophyllum Buxifolium 
(BOX SANDMYRTLE) Blooms in May. Another 
dwarf evergreen for rock garden or border 
planting. Largest plants seldom reach a height 
of more than 8 inches. The smooth, dark green 
leaves resemble Boxwood and the delicate white 
flowers are so abundant as to almost com- 
pletely hide the plant. 
Leucothoe Catesbaei 
(DROOPING LEUCOTHOE) Blooms in May. 
Graceful sprays of white flowers hang from the 
branches, giving the effect of a flowering fern. 
The evergreen foliage turns rich red and purple 
shades in fall. An ideal plant for shaded loca- 
tions, border planting and ground cover use.
