quite a sensation when first introduced. 

 While it rarely exceeds eighteen inches 

 in height, it blooms almost persistently 

 from June until October. The crimson 

 heads of flowers make this spiraea valu- 

 able, it being the deepest colored of the 

 whole family. As a low, deciduous hedge 

 plant, it is effective. It is also excel- 

 lent for mass effects, or as a border for 

 shrubbery. Cut away the early flower 

 heads as they fade, to insure a constant 

 crop of bloom the rest of the summer. 

 The variety Bumalda is itself worthy of 

 a place, its rose-colored flowers being pro- 

 <luced from midsummer onwards. 



S. prunifolia fl. pL, commonly known 

 as the double-flowered, plum-leaved 

 spirffia, is a beautiful Japanese variety 

 of tall growth. The double white flow- 

 ers, which are small and not unlike white 

 daisies, are open in May and last remark- 

 ably well. Both this spirffia and S. Van 

 U-outtei are commonly known as the 

 bnclal wreath, owing to their remarkable 

 wealth of bloom. 



S. Billardii, a colored spiraea, is well 

 worthy of a place. The plant is of vig- 

 orous habit and flowers during July and 

 August, when there is some scarcity 

 among shrubs, especially those carrying 

 bright pink flowers. 



_.f- callosa is a rather dwarf grower, 



with deep-rose flowers, which, appearing 



towards the end of June, are produced 



more or less all summer. There is a

NEW ROSE 



AMERICAN PILLAR 



1^0 Climbing Rose is attracting the attention that 

 "American Pillar" does, and most deservedly so. 

 It is by far the best single-flowered climbing rose for 

 outside purposes; and on account of the great durability 

 of its flowers, it is the best single-flowered forcing rose. 



July 12, 1909. 

 Gentlemen : 



Let me tell you. too. that the Ameri- 

 can Pillar is a better Rose than you 

 know, perhaps. The plant I had from 

 you, which was planted tlila siHrlnB; 

 under unfavorable conditions, is now 

 giving us a aucoesslon of most 

 exquisite bloom. 



Yours truly, 



J. HORACE McFARLAND, 

 Pres. of American Civic Association,

COMMKNT FROM THK 

 LONDON OARDEN. 



"A most notable feature in this 

 glorious display ( Temple Flower Show 

 in London ) was the New 'American 

 Pillar' Rose. The large and attractive 

 rich rose pink blooms are produced in 

 immense clusters, the white centers of 

 the blooms adding to their attractive- 

 ness."— Florists' Exchange.
