HARDY VINES IN POTS FOR SUMMER PLANTING 
The following varieties can be supplied in strong pot-grown plants, suitable for planting at any time during the summer. 
Clematis Montana 
Undulata 
(Anemone Clematis) 
The illustration in colors in our general catalogue 
for 1931 conveys a good idea of the attractive flowers 
of this gem among climbing plants. It is a strong 
vigorous grower, perfectly hardy, disease and insect 
proof and will succeed and flourish under the most 
adverse conditions. The Anemone or Wind-flower- 
like blooms are white flushed mauve pink, and are 
from 14 to 2 inches in diameter and frequently begin 
to expand as early as the last week in April, just 
about the time when Wisterias have finished, con- 
tinuing in bloom well through May, and are pro- 
duced in great profusion. The best of the early 
spring-flowering climbers of which there are but few.

such abundance as to completely cover the plant. Plants from 
4-inch pots, 50 cts. each. 
Buddleia Variabilis Magnifica

One of the most desirable summer flowering Shrubs, beginning 
to bloom in July, it continues until cut by severe frost. The 
flowers are of a pleasing shade of violet mauve, and are borne in 
dense cylindrical spikes from 12 to 15 inches in length by 3 inches 
in diameter; it succeeds everywhere and flowers freely the first 
season planted. Good plants from 3-inch pots. 30 cts. each;

foliage, which turns to a most attractive bronzy red early in the 
fall. The small white flowers are produced in good sized erect 
panicles in spring and are followed by crimson berries. $1.00 each. 
Cotoneaster (Rockspray, Quinceberry) 
Very ornamental Shrubs with decorative fruits remaining 
usually throughout the winter. The dwarfer varieties are nearly 
evergreen and while especially adapted for rockery plantings are 
equally effective planted in clumps in front of the shrubbery 
border or mixed with the dwarfer broad leaved evergreens. 
Francheti. Tall upright densely branched Shrub with spreading 
branches. Fruit orange-red; semi-evergreen. 
Henryana. Half evergreen tall growing variety with bright 
red fruits. 
Horizontalis. Low growing Shrub with almost horizontal 
branches. Small shiny green leaves and orange-red berries 
produced in great quantity. One of the most effective ever- 
green plants for rockery or border planting. 
Prostrata. A very neat dwarf variety with miniature leaves 
and bright red berries. 
Salicifolia Flocosa. Large growing Shrub of graceful habit 
and willow-like foliage, bright red fruits extending well along 
the branches.
