~ ALTHEA, WILLIAM R. SMITH 
for wAll-Seasea Gloom 
ALTHEA, WILLIAM BR. SMITH 
These four Altheas represent the best of 
their kind. William R. Smith is a superb 
white variety. Large, disc-like flowers 
come plentifully from June through 
September—a long, long flowering season. 
The showy, snowy blooms are the per- 
fect complement to those of Blue Bird 
and Woodbridge. Plant them together. 
2-year plants, $2 ea.; 2 for $3.50. 
ALTHEA, WOODBRIDGE 
Outstanding freedom of bloom—and out- 
standing blooms in rich rose-pink. Large, 
flaring flowers make it the finest in this 
color. These Altheas need no pruning 
and no spraying, and will reach 10 feet at 
maturity. They are one of the most im- 
pressive of flowering shrubs—one of the 
most beautiful—one of the most carefree. 
2-year plants, $2 ea.; 2 for $3.50. 
VITEX MACROPHYLLA 
Sometimes known as the Blue Chaste 
Tree, this outstanding shrub delivers 
delightful layender-blue flowers all the way 
from July to fall, making it one of the best 
of summer flowering plants. It grows 
vigorously and flowers after the weather 
gets warm. Will reach 10 feet if not kept 
pruned back. A good lawn or border plant. 
15 to 18-inch plants, $3 ea.; 2 for $5.25. 
POTENTILLA, JACKMAN’S 
VARIETY 
One of the most satisfying of the summer 
shrubs, for it blooms constantly right up 
to frost. Hundreds of brilliant yellow 
flowers looking much like small single 
roses cover the hardy, disease-free bush. 
Compact, well rounded, fully foliaged, it 
makes a good hedge or specimen plant. 
Grows well in sun or partial shade and in 
any ordinary garden soil. 15 to 18-inch 
plants, $2.95 ea.; 2 for $5.25.

Plant Pat. 1739. Blooms from July to 
frost. Upright growing plant provides 
big, 5-inch, saucer-shaped blue flowers—

Altheas like plenty of sun—so give them 
a spot to perform in and you'll be re- 
warded. 2-year plants, $3 ea.; 2 for 
$5.25. 
ALTHEA, RED HEART NEW! 
Here’s a brilliant new kind whose pure 
white flower features a scarlet-red center- 
spot—a ruby on white velvet. Blooms 
come through July and August. They are 
large, and open wide to reveal the red 
heart. You can create an espaliered ef- 
fect by planting against an east or south 
wall and fanning out the branches. 2-year 
plants, $3 ea.; 2 for $5.25. 
DAPHNE SPIREA 
(Japonica Alpina) A gem of a creeping 
shrub that gives you small clusters of light 
pink flowers so densely that they carpet 
the earth with color. The mat-like growth 
is about 6 to 8 inches in height. The plant 
has small lance-like leaves and short wiry 
stems. It blooms continuously, but most 
heavily in spring. Nothing finer for tidy- 
ing up a dull spot. $2.50 ea.; 2 for $4.50. 
FORSYTHIA, BEATRIX 
FARRAND 
One of the showiest of the spring-blooming 
shrubs—a rich mass of deep golden yellow 
flowers. Nicely proportioned bush grows 
quickly to 6 to 8 feet. Unusually large 
flowers often 2 inches across make the bush 
nice and fat. Beatrix Farrand will excite 
your admiration when it is in flower and 
when it is not, for the fine foliage is very 
attractive, too. 18-inch plants, $2 ea.3 
2 for $3.50.
