 Cornel. (M). June and July. Dull red 

 branches; leaves covered with silky down; 

 fruit clusters light blue in late Fall. A 

 native sort that frequents moist places 

 and can be depended upon to decorate 

 similar locations where an ornamental 

 plant is needed.

var. aurea. Golden-twigged Dog- 

 wood. (M). Conspicuous with bright 

 yellow bark in Winter. A beautiful con- 

 trast can be made by planting with some 

 of the red-barked varieties. The effect 

 produced is most conspicuous when the 

 ground is covered with snow at which 

 time a colony planting of these shrubs can 

 be made a most attractive feature on al- 

 most any large lawn.

Flowers of Cornus Sericea, or 

 Silky Cornel, These are very showy 

 in May. The red bark of this va- 

 riety is another attraction best dis- 

 played in Winter. Cornus Stoloni- 

 fera, also described on this page, is 

 very similar. 



A planting of our Shrubbery on an average-sized property. Along the boundary a mixed .border 

 has been planted instead of a hedge. Besides shielding the adjoining house and garage from view 

 this border gives an uninterrupted succession of bloom during the open months, which can be enjoyed 

 just as much from within the house as from out of doors. The grouping of Evergreens softens the 

 angular lines of the house foundations.
