GRAND HARDY HYDRANGEAS

 Hydranges is also known as American Everblooming Hydrangea. The blooms are of the largest size and pure

 gant and refined and the plant is very hardy. It produces its large panicles very freely and for a long season. An 

 especially valuable feature lies in the fact that it comes into bloom just after the spring shrubs have faded and 

 continues until late August; rendering it of the greatest use for planting in conjunction with the well-known H.
