THE DINGEE & CONARD COMPANY'S 



New Double White Japan Snowball. 



This grand New Double White Japan Snowball is undoubt- 

 edly one of the most superb hardy flowering Shrubs ever in- 

 troduced ; it blooms in June, when the whole bush is com- 

 pletely covered and loaded down with great compact balls of 

 pure white double flowers, like Miniature Roses. These mag- 

 nificent balls of flowers are borne in such great profusion that 

 they almost completely hide the leaves and branches, and the 

 whole bush appears one dense mass of bloom ; the tree is of 

 erect bushy growth, with deep glossy green leaves having a 

 peculiar crimped and crinkled appearance ; grows 6 to 8 feet 

 high , and is entirely hardy, needing no protection of any kind. 

 We have grown it for a long time, but have only lately suc- 



ceeded in raising a large stock. Our stock this year is large 

 and finely grown, and our artist has made a fine illustration, 

 which, though not nearly as handsome as the plant itself, gives 

 some idea of its wonderful beauty. We can cordially recom- 

 mend it as one of the very best Hardy Ornamental Flowering 

 Shrubs for dooryard, lawn, and park planting; it is also very 

 suitable for cemeteries, as it is vigorous and hardy, and sure 

 to bloom, and being quite scarce and rare, it always attracts a 

 great deal of attention wherever seen. It is one of the things 

 you don't want to miss getting, and ours is the true genuine 

 variety, propagated from large old blooming plants here on 

 our own grounds. Fine plants, 30 cts. each ; 4 for $1.
