Japanese Barberry 



B. Thunbergii. (S). May. Invaluable little 

 shrub that fits in with almost every planting. Will 

 grow just about anywhere, and has handsome 

 foliage of tiny, bright green, oval leaves, that turn 

 the most brilliant shades of orange and red in the 

 Fall. The slender, graceful branches, which are 

 I)r()tected by small thorns, are lined with little 

 scarlet berries of great attractiveness from early 

 Autumn well into the Winter. One of the best 

 plants for a low-growing hedge.

Buddleia 



Shrubs of comparatively recent introduction that 

 are particularly valuable on account of their season 

 of bloom, which is during the Summer months, when 

 few other shrubs are in flower. They are quite rare 

 in this country, but worthy of being included in all 

 shrub collections; thrive best in open, sunny loca- 

 tions and are not entirely hardy north of New York. 



Buddleia variabilis. Sweet-scented Budd- 

 leia. (S). The flowers are fragrant and borne in 

 great profusion during the Summer months. They 

 are produced in terminal panicles, are lilac in color 

 and very ornamental. Each 10 



3 to 4 ft $0 50 $4 00 



var. Veitchii. Veitch's Buddleia. (S). An im- 

 proved variety that is similar in its nature of growth 

 but has finer flowers. The flower spikes are larger, 

 more densely flowered and more brilliant. They 

 are violet mauve in color with an orange-yellow 

 center. 



Each 10 



2 to 3 ft $0 50 $4 00 



3 to 4 ft 75 6 00 



var. Veitchii Magnifica. (S). The flower spikes 

 of this variety are often over 20 inches in length. 

 They are of a beautiful light blue color, making 

 this a most interesting and ornamental plant.
