The small picture of 
Tamarix Summer 
Glow shown to the 
left hardly can convey 
the beauty of this 
splendid new shrub. 
The delicate texture 
of both blooms and 
foliage is difficult to 
portray in print and 
the shrub must be 
seen to be appreciated. 
Where a free-branch- 
ing bush is preferred 
to a taller plant we 
suggest pruning it 
back each spring to 
within 6 inches from 
the crown.
