verj' durable, lasting in favorable Aveather more 

 than two weeks. Besides being- a tree of fine form, 

 its' foliage is of a grayish green color, glossj' and 

 handsome, and in the autumn turns to a deep red, 

 rendering the tree one of the most showy and beau- 

 tiful objects at that season. We regard it, all things 

 considered, as one of the most valuable trees for 

 ornamental planting, ranking next to the Magnolia 

 among flowering trees, and only second to the 

 Scarlet Oak (which it almost equals) in brilliant foli- 

 age in autumn. 8cc Cut. $1.00.

^ The Thorns justly deserve to be classed among the most 



(LORNUS beautiful flowering trees. They are generallj- dense, low- 

 growers, occupying comparatively little space and well 

 adapted to beautify small grounds. If judiciously pruned, 

 they can also be trained to assume nicturesque tree forms. The foliage is varied and attractive, flowers very showy 

 and often highly perfumed. The fruit is ornamental. There are numerous varieties, all of which are hardy and will 

 thrive in any drj- soil. We have endeavored to select the best and most distinct. They flower in May and June.
