Pachysandra Growing 
Pachysandra Terminalis (Spurge) 
A trailing plant 6 to 8 inches high, forming broad mats of bright glossy 
green foliage. A ground cover, which will grow in all shady situations and 
the only plant which will thrive under pine trees. Some of its main uses are: 
Under aill evergreen plantings, under all shrub plantings, for area-way 
copings, for loggia and enclosed porch uses, for shrub and flower bed bor- 
ders, for bordering walks and drives, for steep terraces in sun or shade; for 
city yards it is ideal; for dense shade under any kind of trees. Plants should 
be spaced 4 inches apart.

PACHYSANDRA SILVEREDGED 
Pot grown plants Three $1.70, Doz. $5.50, 100 $25.00 
This is an exceedingly nice and valuable but still very rare form. 
It differs from the common Pachysandra by sporting a narrow silvery 
white margin around its leaves, and the leaves themselves are light 
green instead of dark green. The edge is seldom more than 1/4 inch 
wide and never discolors. 
The effect created by a grouping of this variegated type is most 
pleasing, giving a much lighter effect; in fact, the contrast is quite 
sharp. Everyone who has seen it wants it for that very purpose. The 
variegoted form planted at the base of Rhododendrons or other ever- 
greens is just what is wanted for relief of too much green. 
Vinca - Periwinkle or Trailing Myrtle 
The Periwinkles are suitable to grow as edgings to shrubbery borders, 
carpet the ground under the shade of trees, or in shady borders with Ferns, 
Lilies and other bulbs. 
Ordinary soil in positions named above. Plant in autumn or early spring, 
4 to 6 inches apart. Additional beauty is obtained by the interplanting of 
Daffodils, Mertensia or Plumbago larpentae. All these bulbs and plants do 
well planted under Vinca minor.

Luxuriantly in Deep Shade 
Gour Plants for Covering Large Banks 
ROSA WICHURAIANA 
Each $1.25, Three $3.15, Doz. $12.50 
Almost evergreen, the Wichuraiana or Memorial Rose trails along 
the ground, making a green, glossy mat covering a wide area. The 
flowers are produced in late July or August, in big sprays or panicles. 
They are pure white, semi-double or single, with an enormous center 
of brilliant yellow stamens. This is by far the most useful Rose for 
covering banks and slopes because of its close, clinging habit and its 
tendency tc root wherever it touches the ground. Rosa Wichuraiana 
is the parent of practically all our modern hybrid climbing Roses, but 
is by far the best for its own particular purpose. 
LONICERA HALLIANA 
Ground Covering Size, Doz. $5.50, 100 $25.09. 1000 $225.00 
Aside from being a favorite vine for both sunny and shady porches, 
Hall’s Honeysuckle is extensively used for covering banks. Its growth 
is rapid and because it roots deeply is an excellent plant to prevent 
washing of soil. The fragrant flowers produced almost all summer long 
greatly add to its charm. It may also be used to cover semi-shady 
places in woods. May be planted in spring and fall. Plants should be 
spaced 18 inches apart. 
LONICERA HALLIANA AUREA VARIEGATA 
Each $1.50, Three $4.00, Doz. $15.00 
This is the golden variegated form of the well-known Hall’s Honey- 
suckle. The golden foliage is quite stunning and ornamental when 
seen on trellis or fence. Branches taken from it for use with flowers 
contribute handsomely to the effect of a vase of flowers. 
In the garden, the golden leaved Honeysuckle makes a colorful dis- 
play which lasts well into the winter. In milder climates the leaves are 
retained throughout the winter. Flowers are the same and as fragrant 
as the common Honeysuckle. 
EUONYMUS ACUTA 
Ground Covering Size, Doz. $6.00, 100 $32.50, 1000 $300.00 
One of our favorite ground covering plants and also a great favor- 
ite with our customers. It is a fine prostrate, rapidly spreading vine; 
makes a smooth, shiny, dark, evergreen carpet, hardy anywhere, dense 
enough to prevent weeds from coming up through it. Does equally well 
in full sun, semi-shade or deep shade. Euonymus Acuta is tops with us 
for covering large areas or banks. 
Polygonum Reynowtria (Dwarf Polygonum) 
This handsome ground cever was introduced a few years ago by Amos 
Perry, one of England’s oldest and best known plantsmen. It is of easy 
culture, very hardy, and establishes itself quite rapidly from underground 
runners. It does best in full sun and its pale green foliage turns brilliant 
red in the autumn. Height is between 6 to 10 inches, and in the fall pro- 
duces numerous airy pink sprays of flowers not unlike those of the ‘Silver 
Lace Vine.’ The buds are deep red, adding much to its charm. One of the 
best ground covers for sunny places where Vinca and Pachysandra would 
not be satisfactory. Plants should be spaced 18 inches apart. 
Three $2.15, Doz. $7.00, 100 $40.00
