STANDARD SHRUBS. 



These are grown by being trained to a single stem 

 with an open head after the manner of shade trees. 

 They flower with exceeding freedom and are very effect- 

 ive and useful, especially in formal gardens. I have 

 them in FORSYTHIA VIRIDISSIMA, Hyerangea PANICU- 

 LATA GRANDIFLORA, LiLACS, SPIRAEAS, VIBURNUM PLI- 

 CATUM,etc. Strong well developed plants, each, 50c.
