THE GARDEN MAGAZINE 



Febbuaky, 1913 



Rosa Spinosissima 



WE have again succeeded in getting a stock of this 

 rare and exquisitely lovely hardy single white 

 Rose. With the exception of the marvelous 

 Cherokee Rose of the South, it is the most beautiful 

 single Rose in the world. The plant is compact and 

 bushy, growing four to five feet high, and in June it is 

 covered with large yellowish-white flowers of indescrib- 

 able beauty. It should be planted in groups, and like 

 the Rosa Rugosa, it can be used in the shrubbery. Com- 

 ing from Siberia, it is absolutely hardy. Limited stock. 



Extra Strong Plants, 50 cents each, $15.00 per dozen. 

 Good Plants, 30 cents each, $3.00 per dozen. 



We have the largest, finest and most comprehensive stock of Hardy Plants in 

 America, including three hundred varieties of the choicest Peonies, the largest 

 collection of Japanese Iris in the world, and an unsurpassed collection of named 

 Phloxes. Our illustrated catalogue, describing these and hundreds of other Hardy 

 Plants, Trees, Rhododendrons, Azaleas and Shrubs will be sent on request. 



"A PLEA FOR HARDY PLANTS," by J. Wilkinson Elliott, contains much information 

 about Hardy Gardens, with plans for their arrangement. We have made arrangements 

 with the publishers of this book to furnish it to customers at a very low price. Particulars 

 on Request.

Hardy English 

 Walnut Orchards 



St. Regis Everbearing Area Commercial Success 

 & & in this City and County. 



The Rasberry for the Millions and the 

 Millionaire. "There's Millions in it," 



You can now have wonderful raspber- 

 ries from June to November by setting 

 out the plants this spring. 



St. Regis produces continuously from 

 June to Nov. — heavy crops of large, lus- 

 cious, sugary berries of bright crimson. 



Its summer and autumn crops do 

 not consist of a few scattered berries, 

 but good to heavy pickings all the time. 

 One party who had a small patch, say i 

 an acre, picked and shipped from it two 

 or three pickings each week for four 

 months. 



Grows successfully in any soil — en- 

 dures without injury heat, drought and 

 severest cold. 



Rochester grown — hardier than 

 Peach Trees. For the lawn, the accli- 

 mated English Walnut is unmatched, 

 with its smooth, light gray bark, luxu- 

 riant, dark green foliage, lofty, sym- 

 metrical growth. Grown with temper- 

 atures far below zero at times, only 

 strong, rugged trees can survive; 

 the only kind you ought to plant and 

 the only kind you can plant with 

 safety. 

 ENGLISH WALNUT CROPS 

 YIELD BIG PROFITS 



The demand for nuts is big and prices 

 give growers handsome profits. Culti- 

 vation, harvesting and maintenance are 

 easy and inexpensive. Plant an Eng- 

 lish Walnut Orchard this spring. 



Large Nuts — Paper Shell 



Hardy Acclimated Pecan Trees 



for Planting in Northern States 



You cannot plant Southern Grown trees 

 and accomplish anything but failure; but 

 with our Northern Grown trees, strong 

 and rugged, grown under Northern con- 

 ditions, from Northern seed and budded 

 from Northern fruiting trees, you may 

 rely upon success. 



You cannot secure such trees from any 

 other source this year, and we doubt if 

 you can for several years to come. We are 

 pioneers in the propagation of hardy nut 

 trees for safe planting in zero climates. 

 Look us up — verify our statements and 

 then entrust us with your order. Fifty 

 years in business is our guarantee that 

 we know our business.

Paxinos Orchard Crop brought 

 $30, 000 



Plant for profit, for pleasure or for dec- 

 oration — plant a thousand trees or a single 

 one. A safe tree to plant in zero cli- 

 mates, or in hot climates. Succeeds in 

 drought, in frost, in poor soil and upon 

 steep hillsides — the roughest of lands. 



The Chestnut blight is a blessing for 

 the orchardist, if not for the public, as the 

 blight can be controlled, with some spe- 

 cies in well kept orchards with less trou- 

 ble" than is required for managing the 

 scale irt Appje orchards and the profits 

 promise to be larger in proportion for 

 those who now seize the opportunity to 

 set out Chestnut orchards and take care 

 of them. The scarcity of Chestnuts in the 

 near future will insure higher prices for 

 those who have them.
