KERRIA.  or  CORCHORUS 
Shrubs  with  tender,  bright  green  branches  that 
are  ornamental  even  when  divested  of  leaves.  They 
grow  in  almost  any  soil,  and  do  well  in  open  or 
shaded  places.  All  varieties  have  attractive  foli- 
age, and  are  invaluable  at  the  front  of  shrubberies 
or  in  groups  by  themselves.  Orange-yellow  flowers 
are  borne  abundantly  in  May  and  sparingly  through 
the  summer.  k\\  the  winter-killing  that  these 
plants  will  receive  south  of  New  York  City  is  not 
apt  to  hurt  them  much.  It  is  unfortunate  that 
persons  further  north  cannot  depend  upon  these 
grand  shrubs  for  mass  and  border  plantings.
