* PHILADELPHIA, Mock ©range 



Belle Etoile (new). The milky-white flowers 



are most unusual in that they have a con- 

 spicuous light purple blotch in the center. 



For fragrance, very little more can be asked 



than the perfume wafted through the garden 



by this lovely bush. It's a vigorous but 



neatly growing shrub, develops with age 



into a good-looking plant of about 5 feet in 



height. It is one of our last importations 



from France, and a few years ago received 



the Award of Merit from the Royal Horticul- 

 tural Society. Price, $2.50 each; $25 doz. 

 innocence (new). The long, arching branches 



carry a wealth of large, single alabaster 



white flowers. So heavily loaded with 



flowers are the slender branches as to as- 

 sume the appearance of sheaves of bloom. 



They are of such purity of whiteness as to 



make all other Mock Oranges seem gray by 



comparison. The fragrance is delightful, 



more delicate, yet more penetrating than 



that of Jasmine. A "must" in every garden. 



Ultimate height about 6 feet. Price, $2.50 



each; $25.00 doz. 

 Virginal. Flowers are semi-double, two inches across; very prolific; delightfully 



fragrant. Main crop of flowers is produced in late May and June, and a scattering of 



blossoms throughout the summer. Very vigorous. Height, 6 to 8 feet.

TAMARIX 



Summer Glow. For sheer grace and beauty, there is no flowering shrub that can compare 

 with the lovely Tamarix. The dainty lace-like silvery blue-green foliage is surmounted 

 throughout the Summer with airy sprays of rosy red flowers which are admirable in 

 the garden and superb for cutting. This Tamarix combined with Gypsophila is most 

 charming in Summer table arrangements. Summer Glow is perfectly hardy, it thrives 

 well in poor or light sandy soil and it is one of the few shrubs that is not injured by 

 Saline Spray at the Sea Shore. When fully matured, it will attain a neight of eight feet, 

 but can be easily kept down to five or six feet by pruning. Price, strong 2-year-old 

 plants, 18 to 24 inches high, $2.25 each; $22.50 per doz. 



Price of Flowering Shrubs, except where specially noted, $1.00 each; $10.00 per doz. 



VIBURNUM 



Burkwoodi. Waxy blush-white and deliciously 

 fragrant, the flowers of this new fragrant 

 Viburnum are produced in early spring when 

 the leaves are unfolding. They form round, 

 domed clusters, and the gardenia-like fra- 

 grance is so sweet as to pervade a large 

 area. The plant grows about 4 feet high, and 

 5 to 6 feet in diameter. It likes a well-drained, 

 sunny place, with plenty of moisture through- 

 out the season. Foliage brilliant in autumn 

 and persists till late winter. In the southern 

 states, it is semi-evergreen. Price, strong 

 2-year plants, 18 to 24 inches high, $3.50 

 each; $35.00 per doz. 



Carlesi. Extremely hardy. Called the Fra- 

 grant Viburnum because of its lovely fra- 

 grant clusters of waxy pink flowers, produced

 shine. Height, 4 feet. Price, $3.00 each; 

 $30.00 per doz.

 turity, it makes a perfectly formed, well- 

 rounded specimen requiring very little prun- 

 ing because it flowers well from old wood.

 high. $1.50 each; $15.00 per doz.
