Spiraea Vanhouttei, the Famous Bridal Wreath 



Plant Shrubs for Beauty 



THERE'S room for shrubbery on the smallest lawn; the largest 

 is incomplete without it. We offer tall shrubs that make 

 effective screens and low ones that nestle about foundations. 

 You can also arrange for a succession of bloom and a variety of color 

 by ordering from 



"The World's Greatest Nurseries" 



We can also supply you with trees for every 'purpose; stately Pines 

 and Hemlocks for the windbreak, Koster's and Colorado Spruce for 

 beauty of foliage. Arborvitae and Retinisporas where slow-growing 

 trees are needed. We ship only thrifty specimens. 



Thunberg's Barberry will grow into a thick, handsome hedge without 

 especial care. It laughs at our Northern winters, gayly flaunting its 

 crimson berries amid the drifting snow. 



Horsford's 



The best plants for cold cli- 

 mates are those which have 

 been tried in the North. Many kinds which 

 ivill do in Southern N. Y. or N.J. will not al- 

 ways winter in Northern New England. My 

 25th anniversary annual offers about all the really 

 hardy shrubs, trees, vines, herbaceous plants, 

 lilies, wild flowers, hardy ferns, &c, suitable 

 to Northern New England. Ask for cat-
