SIX CHOICEST SPIRAEAS 



THE BEAUTIFUL 



SPIRAEA VAN HOUTTEII 



(May and June — 5 to 6 feet) 

 A splendid new garden shrub, entirely 

 hardy and one of the most beautiful of all; 

 immense bloomer, pure snow-white flowers 

 borne in elegant plume-shaped clusters all 

 over the plant, as shown in the illustration. 

 Recommended for all kinds of outdoor plant- 

 ing; also excellent as a hedge plant (see page 

 65). We believe this is the finest of all the 

 Spiraeas, and one of the most satisfactory of 

 the Garden Shrubs to be had.

RED SPIRAEA 



ANTHONY WATERER 



A fine, hardy, perpetual blooming shrub, 

 particularly desirable for the door-yard and 

 lawn; makes nice shapely bushes 2 to 3 feet 

 high; begins to bear its large flat clusters of 

 rich rosy red flowers almost as soon as planted 

 and continues blooming at short intervals all 

 through the Summer and Fall. Makes nice 

 single specimens, or may be used for orna- 

 mental hedges, etc. In addition to prices 

 named below we can also furnish Red Spiraea 

 in five-year plants at SI. 00 each.
