NEW DOUBLE WHITE JAPAN SNOWBALL 



THIS grand New Double White Japan Snowball is undoubtedly the king of all hardy flowering Shrubs. Do not 

 confuse it with the common Snowball, which does not approach it in any particular ; it blooms in June, when 

 the whole bush is completely coz'ered and loaded doion with great compact halls of pure 7vhite double fo^vers, like 

 7niniature Roses. These magnificent 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 niass of bloom ; the tree is of erect bushy 

 growth, with deep glossy green leaves having a peculiar crimped and crinkled appearance ; grows six to eight feet 

 high and is entirely hardy, needing no protection of any kind. The immense stock we now have is the result of many 

 years of careful work. Our fine illustration, which, though not nearly as handsome as the plant itself, gives some 

 idea of its wonderful beauty. We can cordially recommend 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, always attracts a great deal of attention. 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. Prune when season of bloom is past, so that new wood may develop for bloom the following 

 Spring. Note the reduced prices.
