 the widest popularity. It attains a height of 6 feet and the same

 brown. They are borne in immense pyramidal panicles, nearly a 

 foot in length, the weight of the flowers bending the branches. It 

 commences flowering in August and continues in bloom the rest of the 

 season, the flowers drying on the bushes. Very effective when 

 planted in masses or with a background of other shrubs. {See en- 

 graving.) Price, strong plants, 2J-2 to 3 feet high, 25c. each, $2. .50

 effective. Price. GOc. each, $0.00 per doz.
