Hardy  Flowering  Shrubs 
IN  emphasizing  the  importance  of  shrubbery,  a  prominent  landscape  gardener  rtcenlly  said  :  "If 
one-tenth  the  trouble  wasted  on  carpet-bedding  and  other  fleeting  but  costly  rubbish  had  been 
spent  on  Flowering  Shrubs,  American  gardens  would  look  much  the  better  for  it  today."  At 
some  seasons  shrubs  supply  half  the  bloom  and  beauty  of  our  grounds,  as  well  as  cozy  nooks  and 
screens.  At  all  times  they  are  needed  as  a  brilliant  undergrowth  and  supplement  to  the  trees 
planted.  Large  estates  now  make  lavish  use  of  them  for  groups,  beds,  borders,  screens,  etc.,  as 
well  as  for  specimens.    They  need  little  care. 
At  Glenwood  Nurseries  we  grow  a  fine,  full  line  of  shrubs,  transplanted,  well  rooted,  well 
developed,  and  in  various  sizes  from  small  plants  of  a  year's  growth  to  specimen  shrubs  of  mature 
development,  some  6  to  8  feet  high.  We  shall  be  glad  to  furnish  estimates  to  all  who  appreciate 
good  stock,  with  good  roots,  at  moderate  prices.

through  autumn  and  winter  they  are  even  brighter  with  rich  crops  of  berries.  They  are  hardy, 
graceful.  2  to  6  feet  high,  thorny,  and  grow  quickly  in  almost  any  soil,  so  that  we  can  use  them  for
