OLD AND NEW 

 MOCKORANGES 



(Left) The old-fashioned kind known for 

 its fragrance and a long time favorite in 

 many old time gardens (Philadelphus 

 coronarius) 



(Below) The new "Vir- 

 ginal" which grows seven 

 feet high with branches heav- 

 ily laden with semi-double 

 flowers larger than the old- 

 fashioned kind. It is prob- 

 ably the most strikingly 

 distinct of all the numerous 

 new family 



"Mont Blanc" is shown here as cut sprays. The 

 shrub is free branching and makes slender ascending 

 stems five feet in length. Flowers pure white and 

 fragrant. One of the smaller flowered novelties
