Their superior stateliness of form and splendor 

 of growth, the size and richness of their foliage 

 ^nd lavish yield of fragrant flowers, all tend to 

 place them in the foremost rank among hardy 

 ornamental trees and shrubs. 



To insure success in their transplanting, they 

 .should be moved in the spring, never in the fall, 

 and the Chinese varieties at that period when they 

 are coming into bloom. Great care should be 

 -exercised in their removal, the fibrous roots being 

 preserved as nearly as possible, and carefully 

 .guarded from any exposure to wind or sun. Suc- 

 ceed best in a soil which is warm, rich and dry.
