Hydrangea Arborescens 

 Grandiflora Alba 



Also called "Snowball Hydrangea" and "Hills of Snow" 



This magnificent hardy American shrub is the very finest addition 

 to this class of plants found in many a year. The blooms are 

 of the \ery largest size, of pure snow-white color, and the foliage 

 is finely finished, lacking entirely the coarseness found in Hy- 

 drangea paniculata grandiflora. One of its most valuable charac- 

 teristics is its coming into bloom just after the passing of all the 

 early Spring shrubs, while its long season of bloom from early 

 June through August, renders it doubly valuable, not only to 

 the florist, but to every owner of a garden; perfectly hardy, 

 standing 20 degrees below zero. The habit of the plant is ex- 

 cellent; it is bound to become the most widely grown and the 

 most useful of all the Hydrangeas, and the most valuable shrub 

 found in the American garden, while it is more than probable 

 that the florist will find it a most important addition to his class 

 of plants, both indoors and out. 50 cents.
