SYRINGA. Wc. 



Syringa Villosa. 



PEBSI€A. Persian I^ilaC. — A yery graceful shrub 

 with slender branches that produce pretty panicles of 

 light purple flowers in great profusion. 2 to 3 feet, 

 each, 25c. 



TILLOSA. — A distinct and very valuable species from 

 Japan. Has beautiful foliage that never mildews. It 

 is more dwarf and compact in habit than other Lilacs; 

 has stout branches and flowers much later. Its panicles 

 of deliciously fragrant flowers are true Lilac in bud and 

 silvery rose when expanded. Its large heart-shaped 

 leaves are as fresh and cheerful in color as those of the 

 White Fringe. 2 to 3 feet, each, 35c. 



VULGABIS. Purple Lilac. — The well known and popu- 

 lar Lilac; a large, strong growing, upright shrub, bearing 

 clusters of richly fragrant, pure lilac flowers early in 

 spring. An old fashioned shrub that should be in every 

 garden. 2 to 3 feet, each, 20c. 



VULGABIS ALBA. White Lilac. — A variety of the 

 above, producing freely large panicles of white, fragrant 

 flowers. 2 to 3 feet, each, 25c. 



FBENCH LILACS. 



The newer French Lilacs are marvels of beauty and 

 elegance; so far superior to the older forms of 5". vulgaris 

 that but a faint idea of their worth can be given in print 

 — they must be seen to be appreciated. The list is long 

 and I have selected from it six of the best and most 

 widely different, namely: 



CHAS. DIX. — Large panicles of single blue flowers. 

 MABIE LEGBATE. — Large panicles of single white flow- 

 ers; the finest white Lilao. 



LEMOINE. — Double white flowers; superb. 

 , CABNOT.— Double flowers; lilac, with white mark- 

 ings at center. 



PBES. GBEVT.— Fine blue; flowers very large and very 

 double; exceedingly fine. 



iOUT. DE L. SPATH.— Single; flowers and panicles very 

 larfe, dark, pxirplish-red ; splendid. 



Strong plants, 2 feet (except as noted), each, 35c. 

 Standako Lilacs. — Strong handsome heads on 4 to 5 

 foot stems, each, 50c 



TAMARIX. 



INPICA. East Indian Tamarisk. — Of strong, upright, 

 grotesque habit with airy, slender branches, small feathery 

 leares and a profvision of small rosy-pink flowers, dur- 

 ing summer and autumn. 2 to 3 feet, each, 20c. 



WEIGELA (Diervilla). 



Strong growing shrubs of spreading habit. Especially 

 valuable for grouping. 



CANDIDA. — Pure white flowers of large size. Blooms 

 all summer. 



ETA BATHEE. — Very distinct in color of flower from 

 other Weigelas, a remarkably free bloomer and a vigor- 

 ous, erect grower. The flowers are of a rich, deep crim- 

 son, and are produced in great abundance, continuously 

 throughout the summer. 



BOSEA. — Large growth and rather coarse, deep pink or 

 magenta flowers in great masses, during June. 



BOSEA NANA VABIEGATA.— Variegated-leaved Weigela. 

 A grand shrub of rather dwarf open habit and beautiful 

 foliage, deeply margined with clear, creamy-white, dis- 

 tinctly defined. The foliage stands the sun well and is 

 very showy. Altogether it is one of the finest of all 

 variegated shrubs. In June it bears handsome, light pink 

 flowers very profusely. 



Strong plants, 2 to 3 feet, each, 25c. 



Jerse3r Hedge Trimmer 



A new power pruner for pruning Privet Hedges 



Ten days work done in one 



The Jersey Hedge Trimmer turns the hard work of pruning hedges with 

 shears, to play. Any good sized boy can operate it ; trimming ten times as much hedge 

 in an hour as a skilled workman can with a pair of hedge shears, and do it better. 



The Jersey Hedge Trimmer completely removes the only objection to growing 

 Privet Hedges — the bother and expense of keeping them properly pruned. 



Way back in the early seventies, I introduced the California Privet as a hedge 

 plant. (It is now grown by the millions). I regard it as a great honor, now in 1912, to 

 be able to offer the Jersey Hedge Trimmer to keep Privet Hedges properly pruned, with- 

 out skilled labor and at slight cost.
