Three Outstanding Buddleias 

 Charming 



A glorious shrub bearing tlirougliout the late 

 summer and autumn elegant long sprays covered 

 with lovely lavender-pinlc blooms which, compared 

 with other Buddleias. are distinctly pink. For Sep- 

 tember and October flowers we suggest pinching off 

 tile first flower spikes in July to aid In the develop- 

 ment of the side branches which will bring a greater 

 abundance of flowers during the autumn. Awarded 

 Silver Medal bv Penna. Horticultural Society. 2-inch 

 pots, 18c each; S15.0C per 100. 



Dubonnet 



A glorious color — a 

 counterpart of the popu- 

 lar French wine Dubon- 

 net and a shade now very 

 popular in dress fabrics. 

 It resembles the well- 

 known lie de F'rance in 

 color, but the plant is of 

 stronger habit and the 

 trusses are much larger. 

 Firm, cylindrical spikes 

 closely set with dainty 

 blooms. Of erect growth, 

 strong stemmed, with 

 large leathery foliage, 

 and a good late summer 

 cutflower. 2-incli pots, 

 18c each; $15.00 per 100. 



Orchid Beauty 



A splendid new variety 

 of soft cattleya-Iilac with 

 a brilliant orange eye. 

 Somewhat similar In 

 color to the well-known 

 variety Fortune. It dif- 

 fers from this variety in 

 its long tapering spikes 

 which are similar In form 

 and size to the popular 

 variety Charming. A real 

 addition to the Buddleia? 

 for the Florist trade. 2- 

 inchpots, 18c each; $15.00 

 per 100. 



Buddleia Charming 



Pyracantha (Crataegus) coccinea Lalandi 



Firethorn, Evergreen Thorn 



There is no other fruiting evergreen shrub that is 

 so attractive throughout the year as this Firethorn. It 

 will succeed in any fairly sunny position, developing 

 into a shapely plant 6 feet or more high. May be 

 planted either in connection with other shrubs, as a 

 single specimen, or may be trained w-ith wonderful 

 effect against a wall. Its large trusses of white flowers 

 are followed in summer by an abundance of brilliant 

 orange-scarlet berries, which, remaining on the plants 

 throughout the winter, produce a gorgeous effect. 

 Strong 5-inch pots, 75c each.
