Red Hot Poker, or Torch Lily 

 Pfitzeri. EVERBLOOMING FLAME

 its flower heads and for its early, free and con- 

 tinuous-blooming habit. It throws up con- 

 stantly, throughout the summer and autumn, 

 stout stems from three to four feet high, 

 crowned with large spikes or heads of rich, 

 vivid orange-scarlet flowers. Needs winter pro-

Allegheny Co., Pa., May 5, 1920. 

 I am pleased to say that the roses I got from you a 

 year ago last fall did exceptionally fine blooming the next 

 spring, and the shrubbery I got is doing fine.

CHOICE SHRUBS AND DWARF DECIDUOUS TREES 



Owing to the difficulty and expense of packing for shipment Deciduous Trees in small 

 lots, we include in the following list only those of somewhat dwarf habit. Prices for other 

 varieties, of which we have a large assortment of varieties and sizes, will be cheerfully given 

 upon request. 



The prices quoted are for well-developed stocky plants. A dozen of any variety will be 

 supplied for ten times the price of one (six for five times the price of one), but this dozen rate 

 can be used only when six or more of a variety are taken. When less than six of a variety are 

 ordered, the price per plant applies. The hundred rate of any variety will be promptly sent 

 if desired. We solicit an opportunity to give special quotations upon lists of Shrubs and Or- 

 namental Trees for landscape planting. 



Shipment should be made by express or freight, as the plants are very large for mailing.

AZALEA 



J. T. LOVETT.— Produced by Dr. W. Van 

 Fleet, of whom we purchased it in 1910. It 

 has been fully tested and is by far the finest 

 and most beautiful hardy Azalea we have ever 

 seen. The beautiful flowers are produced in 

 such great profusion as to completely envelop 

 the plant, and resemble in size and make-up 

 those of a fine Azalea Indica and are rich, bril- 

 liant, carmine-lake in color. The plant is of 

 vigorous growth, of spreading habit, and has 

 proved to be hardy without protection. The 

 evergreen foliage is rich, deep green, with 

 metallic shadings, exceedingly abundant, and 

 the leaves are much larger than those of Asa- 

 lea amoena, rendering it a most attractive plant 

 throughout the year. What gives this grand 

 Azalea special value is the fact that it flowers 

 during late June and July, after the other Aza- 

 leas have shed their bloom. Beautiful bushy 

 plants, 9 to 12 in., $2.00; 12 to 15 in., $3.00 each. 



Amoena. — A dense dwarf-growing evergreen 

 shrub with slender branches and semi-double 

 flowers of bright, cheerful rosy-purple, pro- 

 duced in such great numbers as to literally 

 envelop the bush in June. Bushy plants, 9 to 

 12 in., $1.35; 12 to 15 in., $1.75 each. 



Hinodegiri. — A valuable variety from Japan. 

 It is of broad spreading habit, with beautiful 

 evergreen foliage and vivid, fiery-red single 

 flowers of good size and in great profusion. 

 Bushy plants, 6 to 9 in., $1.25; 9 to 12 in., $2.00; 

 12 to 15 in., $3.00 each.
