HARDY DECIDUOUS SHRUBS-Co^w 



Spirea Van Houttei 



The New Hydrangea Arborescens, 

 Grandiflora Alba 



(Hills of Snow) 



The most valuable hardy shrub ever introduced. 



This, the great new shrub that has come to gladden our yards 

 and gardens. We place it first and foremost of all shrubs. It 

 makes a perfectly round, symmetrical bush that is covered from 

 June to August with handsome large, pure white flowers. Young 

 plants 25c each; 3 for 69c; 12 for $2.48. Strong two-vear 

 plants, 50c each; $5.00 per dozen. 



Hydrangea, Paniculata Grandiflora 



A great favorite, and there is nothing finer or more showy 

 whether for planting in large masses in parks or for single plants 

 on the smaller lawns. Blooms profusely from July until frost, in 

 immense white panicles, tinted with pink and then with brown 

 in the fully matured flower. The plant should be cut back each 

 spring fully one-half of the past season's growth, as the flowers 

 are much finer if the plant is treated in this manner. Small size, 

 30c each; 3 for 79c; strong flowering plants, for immediate 

 effect, two-year old, 50c each; $5.00 per dozen. 



Hydrangea Paniculata 



Snowberry 



RED SNOWBERRY (Indian Currant) (Symphoricarpos 

 Vulgaris) — Similar to the Snowberry except that its fruits are 

 red, and that the smaller red berries cluster in thick ropes along 

 the weighted-down stems. 25c each; 3 for 69c. 



SNOWBERRY (Symphoricarpos Racemosus) — An excellent 

 shrub for massing under trees and in shaded places, as well as 

 in full sunlight. Very ornamental in the Fall; has a small 

 white or pinkish flower, succeeded by showy white berries. 

 25c each; 3 for 69c. 



SNOWBERRY (Chenaulti) — A new and improved Red Snow- 

 berry, with better foliage and larger fruit. 35c each; 3 for 

 $1.00. 



Spirea 



SPIREA ANTHONY WATERER— A low compact bush covered 

 nearly the whole growing season with large umbels of deep 

 rosy-red flowers which measure six inches across, and is seldom 

 out of flower. One-year plants, 20c each; 3 for 55c; 12 for 

 $1.98. Strong two-year-old plants, 40c each; 3 for $1.12. 



SPIREA VAN HOUTTEI (Bridal Wreath)— With us in May 

 and early in June the plant is completely covered with a mass 

 of large white flowers. Named the "Bridal Wreath" on account 

 of its long graceful spravs of pure white. One-year, 15c. each; 

 3 for 40c; 12 for $1.50. Larger plants, 25c each; 3 for 69c. 



THUNBERGI (Baby's Breath, Bridal Wreath)— Verv small, 

 narrow, light green foliage, making a soft, graceful shrub four 

 to six feet. Tiny star-shaped flowers, singly or in small clusters, 

 early in spring. Should be much more used. 25c each ; 3 for 

 69c. 



BILLARDII— A beautiful shrub which grows to a height of six 



-. feet, producing an abundance of rose colored flowers. Should 

 be planted with Thunbergi. 25c each ; 3 for 69c.
