 tiful large Shrub with pretty bell-shaped while flowers in May; 

 one of the most desirable Shrubs. 25 cts. each. 

 Hydrangea Paniculata [lype). This must not be confounded 

 with hydra7igea paniculata grandijlora offered below, this being 

 the original type from which the variety grandiflora originated, 

 and, while not so well known as the last-named variety, it is by 

 many considered superior on account of the flower heads having 

 less sterile flowers, which reduces the weight of the large heads of 

 bloom, thus enabling the pilant to carry its flowers move erect and 

 showing same to better advantage ; the flowers are creamy-white, 

 turning to a purplish-red as they fade. A Inrge block of these in 

 our nursery during tlie past season attracted considerable atten- 

 tion when in bloom, being much admired by all. Our illustrations 

 of a single flower head of the two varieties gives a good idea of 

 the difference in the two sorts. Strong plants, 30 cts. each ; ^3 00 

 per doz.; extra strong plants, 60 cis. each ; $6 00 per doz. 

 Hydrangea Paniculata Grandiflora, Without doubt the best 

 known and most popular Shrub in cultivation at the present time.

 long, in the greatest profusion, are white when they first open, but 

 gradually change to rose color, and remain in good condition for 

 weeks. (See illustration of flower head on preceding page.)
