CHOICE HARDY SHRUBS 



AZALEA MOLLIS. 



Azalea Mollis. 



This hardy Azalea is used extensively in all European cities 

 for early forcing, and are great favorites on account of their 

 varied and brilliant coloring. 



We offer a fine lot of very bushy plants, 12 to 15 inches high, 

 well covered with buds, at 50 cents each ; §4. 50 per dozen ; 

 $35.00 per 100. 

 Azalea Pontica {Hardy Ghetit). Strong bushy plants, 15 



inches high, S4.50 per dozen ; $35.00 per 100. 



Bigelovia GraveoleilS. ( Golden Feather. ) 

 A vigorous growing, hardy shrub of neat, compact habit, with 

 narrowly linear leaves of a silvery gray color, which give the 

 plant a light, graceful appearance. The great beauty of the 

 plant, however, is in the flowers, which are borne in great golden 

 plumes at the end of every branch. The individual heads are 

 not large, but are quite long, and every part of the flower, as 

 well as the involucre, are of the same deep golden yellow. The 

 bright yellow buds appear late in summer, and the fragrant 

 flowers do not fade until severe frost. 



3-inch pots, 15 cents each ; $1.50 per dozen. 



Dentzia Gracilis. 



A fine lot of strong two-year-old plants, 75 cents per dozen ; 

 S6.00 per 100 ; S50.00 per 1000. 



Strong one-year-old plants, 60 cents per dozen ; $4.00 per 

 100 ; $35.00 per 1000. 



Dentzia Gracilis Rosea. (New.) 



Identical with the above in general habit, but with flowers 

 fully double the size of that graceful variety 7 , to which is added 

 the additional charm of being suffused with a delicate rosy tint, 

 just sufficient to relieve the dead white which is objectionable in 

 the type, and which will undoubtedly place it in the front rank 

 of shrubs for winter forcing. 



Strong two-year-old plants, $1.25 per dozen ; $10.00 per 100. 



Strong one-year-old plants, 75 cents per dozen ; $6.00 per 100. 



Dentzia Lemoinei. 



This is now one of the standard varieties for forcing. It sur- 

 passes D. Gracilis in its very large flowers, being nearly three 

 times the size of the latter variety. These are produced in large, 

 cone-shaped heads of 20 to 30 flowers each, and of the purest 

 white. We are carrying the largest stock of these in the coun- 

 try, and offer strong two-year-old plants, $1.00 per dozen ; $8.00 

 per 100; $75.00 per 1000. Strong one-year-old plants, 60 

 cents per dozen ; $4.50 per 100 ; $40.00 per 1000. 



Dentzia Gracilis Vennsta. 



A handsome white variety of dwarf branching habit, pro- 

 ducing elongated, cone-shaped panicles of pure white flowers of 

 large size, the individual flowers reminding one of a single 

 azalea in miniature. 



Strong two-year plants, $1.00 per dozen; $8.00 per 100. 



Strong one-year plants, 75 cents per dozen ; $6.00 per 100.
