proportions.  They  flower  earlier  and  more  pro- 
fusely.

able  tree  blooms  in  May  and  frequently  again  in

M.  Norbertiana.   This  variety  of  Magnolia  is  less 
common  than  some  of  the  others,  but  it  is,  never- 
theless, a  valuable  sort  and  should  be  more  gen- 
erally used.   In  habit  of  growth  and  the  size 
and  color  of  the  flowers,  it  is  very  similar  to  the 
well-known   Magnolia  Soulangeana,  but 
because  it  blooms  a  little  later  it  is  used 
to  extend  the  flower  season.  Our  plants 
are  well  budded.

(S)  Among  the  hardiest  and  finest  of  the 
foreign  varieties.  The  large  purple  and 
white  flowers,  borne  a  little  later  than 
those  of  the  Conspicua,  are  attractive  any- 
where. Each  10

ers are  delicate  and  fragrant.
