Our shrubs and trees, except where specially noted, are 2 to 3 years transplanted, and range from 
1J^2 to 3 feet in height, according to variety. Some that are stronger growing are consequently 
taller at the same age. In the description of each variety we give the natural heights at maturity, 
but they can be kept any size desired by pruning. 
Those marked * may be planted in a shady place

all deciduous azaleas. Covered in May with 
lovely clusters of flowers ranging in color 
from light yellow to deep orange; many 
also have coral and salmon tints. Does 
best in open sunlight but requires acid soil.

BUTTERFLY BUSH. Buddleia. Par- 
ticularly valuable in landscape design 
because of a late and prolonged blooming 
period extending from July until frost. 
As the wood is soft, plants die to the 
ground in severe cold weather but produce 
new growth to bloom on schedule. Flowers 
are tightly arranged on long graceful 
spikes.

produced abundantly on 4 to 6-foot plants.

CHASTE TREE— see Vitex. 
CHINESE CHESTNUT. Castanea tnol- 
lissima. A low, spreading tree which 
should, three years after planting, yield 
excellent nuts for roasting or for use in 
stuffing. The trees are not subject to 
blight and thrive in good, well-drained 
soil. They are best planted in threes to 
insure pollination — a worthwhile neighbor- 
hood project where tree space is limited. 
2-yr. saplings, 3 to 4 ft., $3 each; 
$8.50 for 3; $30 per doz. 
DAPHNE ROSE. Dapbne Cneorum. One 
of the choicest small shrubby plants for 
adding interest in a foundation planting 
or at the front of a perennial border. Its 
compact form, small foliage and elongated 
clusters of fragrant pink flowers, so abun- 
dant during May and September, make a 
beautiful contrast to the grays of rock- 
garden stones. A sandy, peaty soil is 
preferred.

DEUTZI A gracilis. Covered with white

Pink. C. florida rubra. Flowers are 
bright pink. 3-ft. plants, $7.50 each 
FORSYTH I A, Spring Glory. GOLD- 
EN BELLS. This new forsythia is without 
question the loveliest of all. Its large, pale 
yellow flowers completely cover the 
branches in such masses that they literally 
bend with their weight. It would not be far 
amiss to say that it produces twice the 
number of blooms of the common forsythia. 
$1.75 each; $5 for 3; $17.50 per doz.

fountain-like growth. Every twig densely

uous yellow fruit. Height 6 to 8 feet.
