HORTICULTURE 



Barberries wllh deciduous leaves found 

 by Wilson in western China. 



Among the numerous species of Li- 

 lacs Introduced Into gardens from 

 China during recent years Syrin^a 

 Sweglnzowii Is considered the most 

 beautiful by many persona. It Is a 

 tall shrub with slender erect stems 

 which produce every year great quanti- 

 ties of pale rose-colored, fragrant (low- 

 ers in long rather narrow clusters. It 

 has the merit of being almost the last 

 of tbe Lilais in the Arboretum collec- 

 tion to bloom. Spiraea Veitchii has 

 the merit, too. of being the last of the 

 white-flowered Spiraeas to flower. It 

 Is a shrub already 6 or 8 feet tall in 

 the Arboretum, with numerous slender 

 stems and gracefully arching branches 

 which about the first of July are cov- 

 ered from end to end with broad flow- 

 er-clusters raised on slender erect 

 stems. This Spiraea is one of the best 

 of the hardy shrubs discovered by Wll- 

 on in western China, and by many per- 

 sons it is considered the handsomest 

 of the genus as is now reiiresentPtl in 

 the Arboretum. 



Evonymus planiiies is a native of 

 northern Japan and a large shrub with 

 large dark green leaves and the in con- 

 spicuous flowers of the genus; and it 

 is only on account of the beauty of 

 its fruit that this plant is inoUifloil in 

 this list, for the fruit which hangs 

 gracefully on long slender stems Is 

 large, crimson, very lustrous and more 

 showy than that of any of the other 

 Burning Bushes In the Arboretum.

EUONYMUS RADICANS 



Euonynius radican.s is the only ever- 

 green climbing plant really hardy in 

 this climate which can attach itself 

 firmly to stone, brick or concrete walls. 

 There are a number of varieties of this 

 variable plant in cultivation, and the 

 handsomest of them is the broad-leafed 

 form from northern Japan, known as 

 var. vegetus. This plant can grow In 

 Massachi;setts to the eaves of a tall 

 house and completely clothe its walls 

 with a cover which grows thicker by 

 an annual shortening of the branches, 

 or if a wall is not provided for it to 

 cling to it will grow as a low round- 

 topped dense shrub. Like the other 

 forms of the si)ecies it can also be used 

 to cover the ground under trees and 

 shrubs, but as a ground cover it is 

 improved by occasional clipping. 



This variety vegetus Is now covered 

 with its small yellovz-green flowers 

 which will be followed by abundant 

 pink fruit, which adds greatly to the 

 decorative value of this variety which
