PRUNUS SINENSIS 



This dwarf shrub is hardy, and is not only covered 

 with little rosettes of white blossom in the spring, but 

 supplies the garden with rich and varied tints in the 

 autumn, when its foliage turns to carmine, purple, 

 and bronze before it falls. It is also valuable as a 

 pot-plant, being amenable to very early forcing with 

 but slight warmth.
