Parrotia Persica 



If one wants to make customers' eyes pop when they come to visit his 

 autumn show garden, he should set the hamamelis cousin, Parrotia persica, be- 

 fore them. Eyes may pop even before fall rolls around, for the purplish flow- 

 ers in dense heads come before the hamamells-like leaves, giving a bizarre 

 effect in spring. But its greatest gloi-y comes when the leaves are touched by 

 the cool weather of autumn and take on brilliant orange and scarlet tints, as 

 well as one of the loveliest yellows found in leaf colors. It is a small tree, grow- 

 ing to 15 feet, of graceful habits, making it an ideal plant for the small gar- 

 den. Best of all from the busy gardener's standpoint, it is easily satisfied in 

 ordinary garden soil. Coming from northern Iran (Persia to us of the old 

 school), it should be hardy in most parts of the country. See page 26. 



Hamamelis Mollis. One of the best Witchhazels. See page 14. 



ZENOBIA PULVERULENTA 



For a lime-free, well-drained loamy soil this shrub does equally well in a 

 light or shady position. The waxy, pure white bells are freely produced in 

 June and July and are delightfully fragrant. It is a desirable, almost ever- 

 green, plant and received a first class certificate. See page 37. 



SARCOCOCCA HUMILIS 



Its cheerful glossy green leaves intermixed in winter with almond scented 

 flowers and later black berries. Not much over 18" tall, and ruscifola 

 broader leaves and red fruits. See page 31. 



YUCCA GLAUCA 



Similar to Filamentosa. Foliage much narrower and more grasslike but 

 stiff. Flowers on shorter stems and earlier than others. See page 37. 



NEW BEAUTYBUSH 



An uncommon deciduous shrub of great value is Callicarpa bodinieri 

 giraldi subincanensis, growing six to eight feet high. As compared with other 

 species of Callicarpa, the height of this variety is of great importance, for it 

 gives better display to the unique distinctive blue berries during November 

 and December, long after the foliage has fallen. But the leaves take on, in 

 autumn, a bright rosy purple hue, harmonizing with the colored berries. It 

 is a plant that thrives in any good garden soil. It is \vell teamed Bodinier 

 Beautybush. See page 7. 



CHINESE MAACKIA 



Summer-flowering Tree 



In the months of July and August, the Maackias are striking flowering 

 trees. The white blooms are in dense, upright clustered racernes. Not a well 

 know n tree, it always arouses inquiries from visitors. Our species at this writ- 

 ing is Maackia sinensis. This is member of the Leguminose family, recog- 

 nized by close examination of the little flowers. Introduced to cultivation in 

 1908, it is still not grown by many. Although not so well known as .^mur 

 Maackia, the density of its flowers gives it a distinct appeal. See page 24.
