In the discussion of "The Bug Ques- 

 tion" at the last meeting of the New 

 England Nurserymen 's Association, W. 

 C. O'Kane, acting state inspector of 

 the New Hampshire experiment station, 

 at Durham, N. H., spoke of the meth- 

 ods of getting rid of scales and pests. 

 The San Jose scale can be controlled 

 by fumigation with hydrocyanic gas, 

 which he said is the best thing that 

 he knows of. Below the scale is a liv- 

 ing female, and her progeny, unlike al- 

 most every other form of parasite, is 

 born alive. 



The oystershell scale, he said, is not 

 susceptible to fumigation, and a spray- 

 ing with a linseed oil emulsion is the 

 best thing for that — one pound of soap 

 to one gallon of water and two gal- 

 lons of linseed oil. This form of scale 

 is in some ways as dangerous as the 

 San Jose scale. To spray on the trees, 

 to this emulsion nine parts of water is 

 added. The lime-sulphur spray must 

 be used two or three seasons before the 

 scale is dispelled. 



For the brown-tail and gypsy moths 

 nursery stock must be examined when 



SALVIA GREGGn 



NEW, HARDY, 

 EVER-BLOONING, 

 REDFLOWERING SHRUB 



A Native off the Cold, Arid Mountains off West Texas 



Extremely hardy. Has withstood a temperature of ten degrees below zero. 

 Is a great drouth resister. It flourishes and blooms profusely in the hottest 

 and driest weather. It is as near an everblooming plant as we have ever seen. 

 It begins to bloom in early spring soon after growth commences. The blos- 

 soms literally cover the plant for two months or more. Then for a few months 

 it does not bloom so freely, but is perhaps never without some flowers. In the 

 fall it puts on another full crop of blossoms that continue till long after the 

 early frosts have set in. It requires a killing freeze to check its flowering. 



The color is an indescribable lovely shade of red. It is a dark, soft, cerise 

 crimson, much the color of a well grown Artierican Beauty rose. It has none 

 of the harsh, glaring shades of the Salvia splendens. The beautiful color is 

 perhaps the most attractive feature of this novelty. 



It is a hard-wooded shrub. Grows three to four feet high and three to 

 four feet wide in a compact globe, very full and neat in appearance. It is 

 beautiful when massed in a solid bed, and is as useful as the Spirasa Van Houttei 

 for bordering shrub beds. It is not so tall, but is as compact and graceful as 

 the Spiraea, and in addition it is a blaze of beautiful red nearly all the season. 



We began selling plants last November, and have sold theni in nearly 

 every state of the Union and also several European countries. Reports are 

 just coming in as to how they stood the winter. Below are a few of them. 



What others say of it: 



Illinois, G. Klarner, Quincy: March 16th, 1914, says, "To date the Salvia Greggil are 

 In good healthy condition uninjured from the cold, which for two weeks ranged from two 

 to six degrees below zero, every night. They were planted out when received and had no 

 protection of any kind. There was no snow when temperature was lowest." 



New Jersey: Geo. C. Woolson, Hastings-on-Hudson, New York, writes, "I grew this 

 thirty years ago when my nursery at Passaic, N. J., was running and it is certainly a 

 very desirable species, and Is hardy in the North, like many of the Texas plants." 



Georgia: P. J. Berckmans Co., Augusta, March 21st, "The Salvia Greggli stood the 

 winter without injury and they are now in fine shape." 



Florida: Buckeye Nurseries, Tampa, March 18th, 1914, say: "The Salvia Greggli 

 received from you three or four months ago has bloomed continuously for the past two 

 month."!. The writer has It planted around his home and Is very much pleased with same." 



California: T. K. Godbey, Waldo, March 18th, says, "Salvia growing fine and in 

 bloom." 



Texas: M. Falkner, Waco, March 17th. 1914, says, "The one year Salvia Greggli 

 bought of you last November doing well. During the mild weather In January all the 

 plant.s had a few blossoms and one of the plants blossomed heavily, being of a rich red 

 and very pretty." 



Kansas: E. P. Bernardln, Parsons, Sept. 27th, 1913, says, "Salvia Greggil plants you 

 sont me last December were planted out in the open field and given no protection whatever. 

 They went through the winter without injury and came out In the spring in full leaf 

 to the tips. They went through the hottest and driest summer ever recorded in Kansas, 

 .showing good blooms through it all. I look upon it as the most valuable shrub that could 

 be planted in this great Southwestern belt." 



Our field grown plants are sold out for this season but we can still furnish strong young 

 plants, six to eight Inches high for lining out in nursery, or for summer bedding. It blooms 

 as early and more freely than the Salvia splendens and is much prettier in blossom and 

 plant. Contract prices for field grown plants November delivery given on application.
