Will remind you this spring of the glorious old-time 

 gardens. As you admire them on the lawns of others, 

 why not determine to have a few blooming in your 

 own yard another year? Don't expect to have shrubs 

 in bloom next spring, however, unless you plant now 

 and plant big well-matured specimens. We sell no 

 other kind and Snowballs you buy of us will bloom 

 freely another year.
