5* 



DEUTZIA. 



Crenata fl. pi. Douklk Drutzia.— a great 

 bloomer, bearing racemes of handsome, dou- 

 ble white flowers, lightly tinged with pink; 

 late in June. 



Gracilis. — Of dwarf habit, growing only to 

 about two to three feet, and covered with a 

 mass of beautiful, pure white, bell-shaped 

 flowers; early in June. A popular and charm- 

 ing shrub. 



Gracilis rosea. — A new and improved variety 

 with flowers much larger than in D. gracilis 

 and tinted with delicate pink. 



Dcitlzia Lemoinei. 



Lemonei. — The finest of them all, and one 

 of the best of hardy shrubs. Magnificent 

 broad, dense heads of bloom, opening very 

 full, pure snowy white, each panicle forming 

 a veritable bo.iquet, and completely covering 

 the bush. A great improvement upon D. 

 gracilis, the flowers being larger and more en- 

 during and the bush stronger growing. (See 

 cut). 



Each 20c: doz. $2.00. 



HYPERICUM VAN FLEETI. 



Goldex Lack. 

 A new shrubby Hvpericum of the great- 

 est value, and the freest blooming and most 

 valuable shrub, producing yellow flowers, that 

 has, as yet, been offered. Blooming as it 

 does, from ea~ly in August until late in au- 

 tumn, it is an especially desirable addition 

 to the list of ?hrubs. so few others flower at 

 the same season. When it is remembered 

 that the plant is of dwarf, compact habit, as 

 hardy as an oak and is lite r ally covered with 

 golden-yellow flowers an inch in diameter, 

 and in their make-up. look at a short dis- 

 tance, "for all the world" like gold lace, some 

 idea of its beauty is recognized. Each 30c; 

 doz. $3.00. 



GENISTA JAPONICA. 



Golden Fleece. 



A new shrub introduced by me from Japan; 

 exquisite when in bloom, and very attractive 

 and interesting at all times. During June it 

 is literally clothed with innumerable bright 

 yellow, pea-shaped flowers, forming a perfect 

 mass of pure golden-yellow color, delightful to 

 behold. When not in flower it is a mass of 

 long, slender, bright green branches with 

 small leaves. In habit of growth and appear- 

 ance of plant it resembles Scotch Broom, to 

 which it is closely related botanically. The 

 flowers, however, are very much larger, and 

 are produced in the same lavish profusion. 

 Each 30c; doz. $3.00. 



KERRIA. Corchorus. 



Japonica. Globe Flower. — Of slender habit, 

 four to five feet high, producing handsome, 

 single, bell-shaped, orange-yellow flowers 

 throughout summer. Extremely hardy. 



Japonica fl. pi. Double-flowered Globe Flower. — 



Similar in habit to the above, but of some- 

 what lower growth, bearing globular, double 

 flowers of the same deep orange-yellow color, 

 very profusely during summer. 



Japonica variegata. — A low-growing variety, 

 very airy and graceful, with dense, light 

 green foliage, beautifully margined with 

 white. Very ornamental, and one of the most 

 valuable dwarf shrubs. Flowers single and 

 golden yellow. 



Each 20c; doz. $2.00.
