Four Choice Hardy Garden Plants 



31 



Vitex macrophylla 



Rare Large-Leaved Chaste Tree 



A most desirable Shrub of graceful, shapely habit, es- 

 pecially valuable on account of its lavender-blue flowers,

 rare in hardy Shrubs. Comes into bloom in July and con- 

 tinues UPtil frost. Height, 6 ft. or more. Will succeed in 

 any position. Strong two-year- 

 old plants, 75c each; $7.50 per 

 dozen. 



The Brilliant New 

 Everblooming 



Climbing 

 Honeysuckle 



Lonicera sempervirens 

 tnagnifica 



Flowers bloom 

 continuously from 

 early June until 

 late October. 

 Every branch 

 bears a terminal 

 truss of 15 to 20 

 orange-scarlet, 

 long tubular 

 flowers. Foliage 

 dark green with 

 glaucous reverse. 

 Strong plants, 50c

Vitex macrophylla 

 The Rare Chaste Tree 



Pyracantha (Crataegus) 

 coccinea Lalandi 



Firethorn or Evergreen Thorn 



There is no other fruiting evergreen Shrub 

 that is so attractive throughout the year as 

 this fiery Thorn and which will succeed in 

 any fairly sunny position, developing into a 

 shapely plant 6 or more feet high; it may be 

 planted either in connection with other 

 Shrubs or as a single specimen or may be 

 trained with wonderful effect against a waU. 

 Its large trusses of white flowers are followed 

 in summer by an abundance of brilliant 

 orange-scarlet berries, which, remaining on 

 the plants throughout the winter produce a 

 gorgeous effect. 



Field-grown plants of Pyracantha are 

 very difficult to transplant; the stock we 

 offer has therefore been grown in pots and 

 can be planted now with perfect success. 

 Strong 6-inch pots, $1.00. 



Buddleia He de France 



New Butterfly Shrub 



Buddleia lie de France 



Greatly superior to the old 

 popular varieties through its 

 brilliant coloring, longer and 

 more graceful spikes of bloom 

 and its more uniform habit of 

 growth. 



Height, 3 to 4 ft., forming a 



bushy Shrub of symmetrical 



shi pe; spikes, 6 to 9 inches, of 



a brilliant rosy violet-purple — 



very fragrant. 



Strong, thrifty 

 plants from 5-inch 

 puts, that will pro- 

 duce an abundance 

 of flowers this 

 summer. 50c each; 

 .00 per doz.; 

 1.00 per 100.
