In the light, airy room that affords a constant temperature throughout the year there is an endless range of plants to choose from which will soften and improve the surroundings.

Mahonia

These are delightful evergreen shrubs with handsome leaves and yellow flowers. They present an air of stern uncompromising endurance which I find strangely attractive. The species Mahonia aquifolium makes a useful low-growing ground cover under taller trees, especially cherries or acers. This does not inhibit the flowering in April.

The beauty of the grey foliage, near white sterns, and subsequent lavender-blue flowers depends very much on the associate planting. Grown at the edge of a flagged path to intermingle with the purple-leaved Cotinus coggygria, the shrub achieves a certain distinction. A well-drained soil and position in full sun are two further essentials for success. Cuttings taken in June or July will root in a sun frame.
