Grand Hardy Hydrangeas 



DEUTZIA. 



Hydrangea arborescens sierUis. 

 ABBOREStENS STEBILIS (.Arborescens grandiHora alba). H1LI.S OF Snow. This most valuable new hardy 

 Hydrangea is also known as American* Everbloomixg Hydraxgea. The blooms are of the largest size and pure 

 snow white, the form of panicles being much like Hydrangea Hortensia. The habit of plant and foliage is elegant 

 and refined and the plant is very hardy. It produces its large panicles very freely and for a long season. An 

 especially valuable feature lies in the fact that it comes into bloom just after the bloom of spring shrubs has faded 

 and continues until late August; rendering it of the greatest use for planting in conjunction with the well-knowji 

 H. paniculata grandiHora. fSee cut.) Two years, 1 to 2 feet, each, 30c; doz., $3.00 Three years, 2 to 3 feet, 

 each, 50c; doz., $5.00. ...

 promises to be of very great value. Two years, 1 to 2 feet, each, 60c. 



PAXItTLATA GBA\DIFL0B.4. Perhaps no shrub is more frequently met v.ith upon latvns and in door j-ards than

 flowers an inch in diameter. Strong bushy plants. 2 feet,
