Our Evergreens are in especially fine condition this year. Most of them have been transplanted recently and all of them are in excellent condition for Spring planting. We wish to call special attention to our small Evergreens suitable for hedges, group planting and window-boxes, and to our large specimens for immediate effects. Many of these spec- imens are of unusual beauty and can be moved on platforms, at special prices, which we will gladly quote upon request.
Note. — Look on pages 12 to 19 at our list of Pot-grown Scotch Heather and other ground covers.
A cordial invitation is hereby extended to visit our nursery at any time for the purpose of plant study, or for inspection of saleable stock. EASTERN NURSERIES, Inc.

obtusa kiusiana Kurume Azalea Originated in the city of Kurume, on the Island of Kya- shu, Japan, nearly 100 years ago, these beautiful plants have been practically unknown in Europe and America until brought to the attention of the public a few years ago by Mr. E. H. Wilson, of the Arnold Arboretum. The plants of this group are of dwarf, compact habit, with small, deep green, glossy, evergreen foliage, and small flowers, borne in great profusion, and covering the plants for many weeks with their fairy clouds of exquisite color. Many of the varieties have flowers known as “hose-in- hose,” that is, having a petaloid calyx and giving the effect of one corolla set within another.
Kurume Azaleas are hardy on Long Island, New York, and thence south. In the north these plants are of un- told value for forcing for winter bloom in conservatory or greenhouse. From a collection of over 200 sorts Japanese experts have selected what they consider the best six vari- eties. We are now offering for sale plants of these six varieties, raised from cuttings. With one exception the varieties offered have hose-in-hose flowers.
The six varieties referred to are:
Takasago, pure pink, hose-in-hose Azuma-kagami, deep pink, hose-in-hose Kirin, deep rose, shading to silvery rose, hose in-hose Kumo-no-nye, pure salmon, single Kurai-no-himo, pure carmine, hose-in-hose Kureno-yuki, pure white, hose-in-hose

Calluna vulgaris Scotch Heather, and named varieties Scotch Heather, the “Bonnie Purple Heather” of song and verse, is a lovely, low-growing evergreen shrub, 6 in. to 3 ft. in height, of the Heath Family, covered in midsummer with small, bell-shaped purple flowers, borne on slender spikes. These flowers stay in good condition for some weeks, and if cut while fresh will hold their color and charm all winter. Honey bees, too, are attracted to Scotch Heather and make from it a honey that is considered very choice. This plant is widely known as invaluable for planting in full sun in sandy soil; it is also most attractive as an edging to beds of Rho- dodendrons, Laurel, etc., and in Rock Gardens. This little plant gives most satisfaction when planted from pots. Be- sides the common purple Heather there are many varieties which give variation in the height of plant, color of flowers, and season of bloom. Below we offer a list of varieties, all of which are pot grown, sturdy plants. and 3 in. pots

glossy, evergreen-like foliage and bright red berries which stay on the shrubs well into the winter. The plants of this group of Cotoneaster are particularly adaptable for use in rockery, on the edge of low shrub- beries or on slopes. C. Dielsiana, divaricata and salici- folia floccosa are of more shrub-like growth, with long graceful branches, glossy leaves and bright red berries. All of these plants are hardy and do well in any good well-drained garden soil, but require plenty of water during the first year after transplanting, and take hold much more satisfactorily when transplanted from pots than from the field.

This Honeysuckle, also, is evergreen. The growth of this shrub is somewhat stiff, and spreading, the foliage J to 1 inch long, rather box-like, and bright shining green. While still a small plant L. pileata is covered with small yellow flowers which produce in early autumn beautiful transparent berries of clear light purple. Like L. nitida this shrub does not always survive the severe winters of this climate; but in southern New England and south and west it is one of the most useful and beautiful of the new shrubs. It will serve as a specimen shrub in the garden, a shrub for rock- gardens, or as a low, wide-spreading hedge.

This is one of the rarest and most beautiful of all Hawthorns. It has large white flowers in early spring. Even the young trees offered by us bear quantities of large round edible scarlet fruits in August and Septem- ber, and, later, the substantial leaves turn a beautiful scarlet. A beautiful small flowering tree, suitable as a specimen, for planting in groups on the edges of woods, or near the sea.

The white and deep yellow Potentillas are charming shrubs of low habit. Their arching branches are covered with delicate divided leaves, and small single flowers, like tiny roses, continuing to bloom from early spring until frost. As a low shrub in the foreground of shrubbery or for the rockery these shrubs are invaluable.
