 Barberries. A species recently introduced from Japan and 

 an improvement upon the popular Berberis Thunbergi. 

 Dense and compact habit with round, glossy, deep green 

 foliage which turns to bright flame color in autumn. The 

 branches are thickly studded with small wax-like, bright 

 coral red berries which remain nearly to the end of win- 

 ter and impart to the plant a lively, cheerful and very 

 attractive appearance. It is a stronger and more upright 

 grower than B. Thunbergi, and its berries are more bril- 

 liant in color. As hardy as an oak and of great value for 

 hedging as well as for specimens and massing. Strong, 

 IVz to 2 feet, each, 25c; doz., $2.50; 2 to 3 feet, each, 

 35c; doz., $3.50; 3 to 4 feet, each, 50c; doz., $5.00.

 ing, compact growth and small, glossy, dark green foliage, 

 turning to crimson in autumn. It has small yellow 

 flowers in spring, succeeded by brilliant red berries in 

 autumn, which cover the branches. Much used and valu- 

 able for planting dwarf hedges. (See cut.) Strong, 1^2 

 to 2 feet, each, 20c; doz., $2.00; 2 to 2J^ feet, each, 30c;
