Japanese Flowering Cherry 
Japanese Flowering Cherries 
The display of Japanese Flowering Cherries at 
Washington, D. C., in early spring is one of the great 
sights of our national capital and annually attracts 
thousands of visitors. 
These cherries are among the earliest trees to flower, 
coming into bloom early in April. The different varie- 
ties, single and double, extend the flowering season 
for fully four weeks, the attractive single-flowered 
varieties coming into bloom first, followed by the dou- 
ble sorts. They are perfectly hardy, and will succeed 
in almost any location. 
We offer eight of the choicest varieties, six erect 
growing and two weeping varieties, a selection made 
for us by one of the most experienced growers. 
Erect Growing Varieties 
Daybreak. One of the earliest to bloom, flowers sin- 
gle pink appearing before the leaves in greatest 
profusion. 
Naden. One of the prettiest double pinks, the petals 
are so numerous as to make the flower a perfect tuft. 
Pink Pearl. The earliest of the doubles. Flowers 
fully 1% inches in diameter, light pink shading 
deeper at the edges; very free. 
Takasago. Double light pink massed into large com- 
pact clusters, very showy, blooms before the leaves 
appear. 
Ukon. Unique in having yellow flowers. slightly 
tinted green, as the flowers mature the veins in the 
petals change to cerise; late flowering; semi-double. 
Victory or Shirofugen. Very double, up to 2% inches 
in diameter borne in racemes of about 3 each on long 
stems; flowers open a delicate pink changing to 
white; late flowering. 
Price. Any of the above in strong plants 4 to 5 feet 
high $2.50 each. 
Weeping Varieties 
Eureka Weeping (Japanese Weeping Rose Flowering 
Cherry). A single light pink that has been grown 
in this country for 50 years, a tribute to its beauty 
and popularity. 
Park Weeping. Differs from the above in the color of 
its flowers which are of a deep pink and a stronger 
grower. 
Price. Either of the above two weeping varieties on 
4-foot stems, strong one-year-old heads $3.50 each. 
Shrubs 
WHOLESALE LIST 
Pyracantha (Crataegus) Coccinea Lalandi 
(Firethorn or Evergreen Thorn) 
There is no other fruiting evergreen Shrub that is so 
attractive throughout the year as this fiery Thorn, and 
which will succeed in any fairly sunny position, devel- 
oping into a shapely plant 6 or more feet high; it may 
be planted either in connection with other Shrubs or as 
a single specimen or may be trained with wonderful 
effect against a wall. Its large trusses of white flow- 
ers are followed in summer by an abundance of bril- 
liant orange-scarlet berries, which, remaining on the 
plants throughout the winter produce a gorgeous 
effect. Strong pot-grown plants 15 to 18 inches high, 
75 ets. each. 2 
Viburnum Carlesi 
A rare Korean variety which is entirely distinct 
with salver-shaped flowers of a delicate rose tinted 
white, passing to white sweet-scented flowers pro- 
duced in terminal subglobose cymes 2 to 3 inches in 
diameter, reminding one somewhat of a spray of Bou- 
var dia: Good bushy specimens 1% to 2 feet high, $1.50 
each. 
Vitex Macrophylla’ 
In general habit similar to V. Agnus Castus, but 
much stronger in all parts, the foliage being larger 
while the trusses of rich lavender-blue flowers are 
fully double the size. It blooms from July until frost, 
and is likely to become as popular as the Butterfly 
Shrub. : 
Fieid-grown plants, one-year old, 15 to 18 inches 
high, $2.50 per doz.; $20.00 per 100.
