GENERAL CATALOGUE OF SHRUBS. 



Sect. II. General Catalogue of Shrubs. 

 6570. In our general catalogue of shrubs we have included several species, which, from 

 their growing with single naked stems, and forming a spreading head at some height 

 from the ground, are correctly denominated low trees. Amygdalus communis, and 

 various species of Crataegus, L., may be referred to as examples. As our object is 

 to form such arrangements as will afford most facility to the gardener in adjusting his 

 plants as to height, colour of the flower, and time of inflorescence, we have included 

 all woody plants which do not exceed twenty feet in height under shrubs ; and all those 

 that exceed that height (excepting the climbers and twiners) we have allowed to re- 

 tain their places in the tables of trees. Here, as before, the most ornamental species 

 and those which continue longest in bloom are distinguished by appropriate marks 

 (s and 3).
