 single specimen, or may be trained with wonderful 

 effect against a wall. Its large trusses of white flowers

 throughout the winter, produce a gorgeous effect.

New Pink Buddleia 



Charming 



A most outstanding new plant which cre- 

 ated a sensation when first exhibited by us. 

 It was given the highest award, a Silver 

 Medal, by the Pennsylvania Hortioultural 

 Society. Truly a glorious shrub bearing 

 throughout the late summer and autuinn 

 elegant long sprays covered with lovely lav- 

 ender-pink blooms which compared with 

 other Buddleias introduced up to date are 

 distinctly pink. For September and October 

 flowers we suggest pinching off the flower 

 spikes in July, which will result in vigorous 

 new growth bearing showy terminal flower 

 trusses during the autumn months. 



Judging from the tremendous interest 

 shown in this new Buddleia we feel confident 

 that it merits the highest recommendations 

 and we suggest to you a good size planting 

 in order to derive your share of the profits 

 to be had from this plant during the next 

 season. 



2-year-old field-grown plants, 18 to 24 

 inches high, $4.00 per doz.; $30.00 per 100. 



3% -inch pot plants $4.00 per doz.; $30.00
