TWO NEW 
Worthwhile Plants 
WE ESPECIALLY RECOMMEND 
BOTH OF THESE PLANTS 
A New. Magnolia 
To Be Named 
TYPE OF GROWTH: This plant grows in a pyramidal shape, 
more bushy and twiggy than the M. Siellata. It is a faster 
growing plant than the M. Stellata, but not as rapid as the 
Soulangeana, the branches being much more slender. it 
bears flowers in great profusion. 
TIME OF BLOOMING: Approximately two io four weeks later 
than the Siellata, not having been affected by freeze or frost. 
DESCRIPTION OF FLOWERS: Flowers are well placed on ends 
of branchlets, measuring from 4l% to 6 inches across. The 
flowers consist of three to five layers, running from tweniy to 
thirty-two petals, which have more characier than the Stellata 
and stand in a more upright position. 
COLOR OF FLOWERS: Blush pink, buds flesh pink. This mag- 
nolia is slighily darker than the M. Stellata Rosea, bui does 
not have the purplish tint of the Siellata Rosea. 
ORIGIN: We believe this plant to be a product of cross-ferti- 
lization between M. Stellata and M. Soulangeana, alihough 
the numbers of layers of petals is greater than we have seen 
either in the Sitellaia or the Soulangeana, and the number of 
peials are correspondingly greater. We believe this to be 
among the finest magnolias in existence. 
Price, Heavy 3 ft. plants $4.50 each. 
A New. Holly 
“Croonenburg” 
NAME: This plant was named by Prof. Carl A. Sorg, formerly 
of Pennsylvania Siaie College. 
ORIGIN: The origin of this plani is somewhat clouded. The 
original plant was discovered on Lynhaven Bay in a garden 
close to an old house site occupied by the Croonenburg, fami- 
ly. Situated close at hand were a number of magnificent 
specimens of English Hollies, which had been brought over 
by Mrs. Croonenburg’s father from Belgium and known ito 
them as Belgian Holly. Although this plant takes on many 
attributes of the English Holly such as the color, and the size 
and color of the berries, we believe it io be of the true Ilex 
Opaca strain. 
The original plant is 35 it. high and 22 ft. in breadth wiih 
limbs running clear to the ground, and so dense the trunk - 
cannot be seen without dividing the branches. 
DESCRIPTION OF MATURE PLANT: In a mature plant, the 
leaves are 2¥2 io 314% inches long and 2 to 24% inches wide, 
having about 7 to 9 spines of a very dark green, not having 
the usual yellowish tint found in the most familiar American 
Hollies. It bears berries from cuttings almost continuously, as 
three year old plants this year had branches weighed down 
with the growth. In a field of several thousand you could 
not see one plant without berries. 
Price, Nice 2 to 3 ft. plants $4.50 each. 
The supply of these two new nlants is limited. If 
you want something really better we suggest an 
early order.
