Deutzia Crenata Magnifica 



Deutzia 



Well-known profuse flowering Shrubs, blooming in spring or 



early summer. Succeed in any sunny position. 



Crenata Magnifica. A most distinct variety with exceptionally 

 large corymbs of pure white double flowers, produced in wonder- 

 ful profusion. 



— Mirabilis. Of very vigorous habit, the long branches carry 

 enormous pyramidal panicles of upright milk-white flowers of 

 largest size. 



— Staphyleoides. Exceptionally large white flowers in great drooping 

 panicles, these flowers are of peculiar formation, reminding one of 

 Staphylea Colchica, the Bladder Nut. A splendid acquisition. 



— rosea plena (Double-flowering Deutzia). Double white, tinged with 

 pink; very desirable tall Shrub. 



Gracilis. A favorite, dwarf bush, covered with spikes of pure white 

 flowers in early summer. 



— Lemoinei. Without doubt one of the very best dwarf hardy Shrubs; 

 flowers very large and produced in cone-shaped heads of purest white, 

 which open out very full. 



— Rosea. A rose-tinted form of this favorite species. 



Price. 60 cts. each; collection of 7 varieties for $3.50. 



EleagllUS (Japanese Oleaster) 



Longipes. A very desirable, nearly evergreen Shrub of medium 

 height, with light foliage, which is silvered on the under surface. The 

 abundant crop of orange-colored fruit is a very attractive feature dur- 

 ing the summer. 75 cts. each. 



ElshoitZia (Mintshrub) 



Stauntoni. Its late flowering, September and October, makes this a 

 particularly valuable Shrub. It grows about four feet high, of bushy 

 branching habit, each branch terminated by a dense 4 to 8 inch long 

 spike of attractive deep lilac colored flowers. 60 cts. each. 



Euonymus 



Alata (Corkbark). A Shrub different in character from others, having an 

 individuality of its own. It is particularly ornamental and interesting 

 on account of its curious corky bark. The small flowers of the spring 

 are followed by attractive red berries in the fall. It is also valuable on 

 account of its bright scarlet autumn foliage which makes it very con- 

 spicuous in the fall. Strong plants, $1.00 each. 



Europaeus (Burning Bush). A conspicuous Shrub which in the autumn 

 and winter is loaded with scarlet seed-pods from which orange colored 

 berries hang on slender threads. 75 cts. each. 



ExOChorda (Pearl Bush) 



Grandiflora. A medium-sized Shrub, bearing white flowers in slender 

 racemes in early spring; very graceful; useful for cut flowers. 60 cts. each.

covering the stems with its golden-yellow bloom. 

 Suspensa (Weeping Golden Bell). A tall Shrub of willowy growth, the 



branches gracefully arching, covered with golden bells in early spring. 

 Viridissima (Golden Bell). Strong erect habit; bright yellow bell like 



flowers in early spring. 

 Price. Any of the above 60 cts. each. 



Halesia (Silver Bell or Snowdrop Tree) 



Tetraptera. One of the most desirable tall Shrubs, with pretty bell- 

 shaped snow drop-like white flowers in May. $1.00 each. 



Hydrangea (Hardy shrubby) 



Arborescens Grandiflora (Snowball Hydrangea). This magnificent 

 perfectly hardy American Shrub has snow-white blossoms of largest size. 

 One of its most valuable characteristics is its coming into bloom just after 

 the passing of all the early Spring-blooming Shrubs, flowering from early 

 June until late July, makes it valuable in any garden. 60 cts. each. 



Paniculata Grandiflora. Without doubt the best known and most 

 popular summer flowering Shrub in cultivation. The flowers, which are 

 borne in dense pyramidal panicles a foot long, in the greatest profusion, 

 are white when they first open, but gradually change to rose color, and 

 remain in good condition for weeks. 

 Fine bush plants, 60 cts. each. 



Standard or Tree-shaped plants which make beautiful specimens for the 

 lawn or garden, $1.00 each. 



Kolkwitzia AmabillS (Beauty Bush) 



An exceedingly handsome Shrub from China, resembling the 

 Weigela to which it is allied. Growing 6 to 8 feet high at maturity 

 with long arching branches, this variety combines all the merits of 

 a perfect Shrub; hardiness, year around beauty of foliage and 

 habit, and profusion of pale pink bell-shaped flowers in June. 

 Strong plants 18 to 24 inches high, 75 cts. each. 



Laburnum (Golden Chain) 

 Vulgare Vossi. A large Shrub or dwarf tree with shining green 

 foliage producing long drooping racemes of yellow flowers in early
