Forsythia.    Golden  Bell 
Familiar  hardy  shrubs,  that  burst  into  bloom  as 
Winter  is  leaving.  The  bright  golden  yellow,  star- 
like flowers  wrap  themselves  along  the  naked 
branches  in  a  wealth  of  bloom  that  is  especially 
bright  and  cheerful  at  such  an  early  season.  The 
"Golden  Bell"  grows  easily,  and  is  ornamental  in  leaf 
as  well  as  flower.  They  are  useful  for  almost  any 
purpose,  but  indispensable  in  groups  and  masses.

Hibiscus  Syriacus.  Althea,  or  Rose  of  Sharon 
FAMILIAR  shrubs,  deserving  of  more  popularity  than  they  receive.  Altheas  will  grow  almost 
anywhere,  from  Ontario  southward,  and  their  abundance  of  bloom  comes  at  an  almost  flowerless 
time — from  July  to  September.  There  is  a  wide  diversity  of  color  in  the  flowers  of  different  vari- 
eties, though  all  of  the  plants  are  of  the  same  upright  character,  and  usually  grow  from  8  to  12  feet  in 
height.  They  should  be  used  in  every  shrubbery  border,  are  valuable  as  specimens,  and  make  beautiful 
screens  and  hedges.  Altheas  are  really  one  of  the  best  deciduous  flowering  hedge  plants,  forming  a  thick, 
stout  bush,  when  properly  sheared  and  trained;  such  a  hedge  may  be  kept  at  any  desired  height. 
See,  below,  names  and  descriptions  of  some  of  the  best  varieties,  with  sizes  that  we  can  supply.
