MOON'S SHILUBS 



CORNUS. THE DOGWOOD 



DOGWOODS are strong growers in almost any soil, and are hardy from the warmer parfs of Canada, 

 southward. They thrive nearly as well in shaded places as in the open ground. While the bush 

 forms, are not remarkable for their flowers, they are especially valued for the brilliant coloring of 

 the bark, which is very attractive in the leafless months of Winter. Particularly suited for mass planting.
