TREES 



NEW EXOTIC GARDEN HOLLIES 



(Ilex aquifoliuin X Ilex cornuta) 



NELLIE STEVENS — a fine, vigorous variety that is hardy. Leaves are more 

 glossy than on English kinds and more spiney than Chinese kinds. An excellent 

 type for use as a specimen. Berries are brilliant red and come at an early age. 



DR. KASSAB — Another fine variety somewhat less vigorous than Nellie 

 Stevens making it more useful for screen and general landscape work. A very 

 hardy, red berried holly. 



LYDIA MORRIS— This hybrid is similar to Dr. Kassab but foliage is some- 

 what lighter in color. Bright red berries make a striking appearance. Plants 

 are hardy and suitable for all uses except foundation planting. 



Extra heavy plants in 1 gal. cans: $2.95 each; 2 for $5.50; 4 for $9.95.

NATURE'S SHOWPIECE 



Evergreens of Outstanding Beauty 



PYRACANTHA C. LALANDI (Firethom). The most 

 hardy of all Firethorns. It is an upright grower with 

 white flowers in summer and large ' highly colored, 

 orange berries from late summer to late winter. Fire- 

 thorns should be pruned annually for increased berry 

 production. They thrive on any well drained fertile soil.

RED BERRIED PYRACANTHA. There are many types 

 of the red berried pryacantha being offered and we 

 have selected the most hardy type we have observed. 

 However, they will not stand zero temperatures. The 

 red berried type is more spreading than the Lalandi. 

 The clusters of bright, large, red berries contrasted with 

 glossy, evergreen foliage surely presents a striking ap- 

 pearance. A beautifid sight when planted alone and 

 in combination with other pyracanthas or other shrubs.
