FRANKLINIA Alatamaha (Gordonia Alatamaha). An exquisite tree 
indeed! It is most beautiful in its general landscape effect, with 
the first flowers opening in mid-August. The trees, even when

urity they are 5 to 6 inches long by. about one-third as wide, a 
rich dark green with red veining. In autumn the whole tree 
blazes with rich, warm color. The flower buds are balls covered 
with whitish-green satin. When as large as marbles they unfold; 
the guard petals emerge; they are satiny snow-white, elabor- 
ately frilled and pleated. The snowy, frilly chalice, 3 inches in 
diameter and of piquant irregularity, holds a sumptious mass of 
the richest orange-gold stamens and breathes forth a delicate 
balmy fragrance. 12 to 18 in. $1.00 each, 3 for $2.50; 18 to 24 in.
