Viburnum Opulus {High Bush Cranberry). The white flowers in June are

 ball, filled with large pendant balls of white flowers in May. 60 cts. each.

 healthy dark foliage; the perfect balls of pure white flowers are borne in 

 great profusion in May. $1.00 each. 



Vitex Macrophylla. Forms a most graceful, shapely, attractive plant, 

 3 to 4 feet high, with nicely divided foliage with aromatic odor. The pretty 

 lavender-blue flowers, arranged in whorls on long, graceful terminal spikes 

 or racemes begin blooming in July, continuing without interruption 

 until frost. A most attractive shrub for any position, illustrated on page 64.

Weigelia Rosea. Soft rosy carmine. 60 cts. each. 



- Rosea Foliis Purpureis. This is entirely distinct and will prove a

 flowers but for its foliage effect, its leaves being of a rich-bronzy purple.

 of green, yellow and pink, delicate rose colored flowers. 60 cts. each.

HEDGE PLANTS 



Berberis Thunbergi (Japan Barberry). Where a dwarf 

 deciduous hedge is wanted, nothing equals this beautiful 

 Barberry. Requires but little pruning to keep in shape. The 

 leaves are small, light green, and towards fall assume rich, 

 brilliant colors, the fruit or berries becoming scarlet. Abso- 

 lutely hardy in all parts of the country. Plant 12 to 15 inches 

 apart. 



Extra strong 3-year-old plants, 18 to 24 inches high, 

 doz.; $25.00 per 100. 



i.50 per 



Boxwood Edging. Fine bushy plants in following sizes: 

 4 to 6 inches high, $2.00 per doz.; $15.00 per 100. 

 6 to 8 inches high, 3.50 per doz.; 25.00 per 100. 



California Privet (Liguslrum OvalifoHum). Of all hedge plants 

 this is the most popular, and more of it is planted than all others 

 combined. It is of free growth, and succeeds under the most 

 adverse conditions, such as under dense shade of trees, where 

 other plants would not exist. Strong plants, 18 to 24 inches 

 high, $6.00 per 100; $50.00 per 1000. 



A well-kept Privet Hedge adds considerable to the suburban home grounds.
