;V\OONS SHRUBS 



Spirea 



INDISPENSABLE shrubs of easy culture that differ so in size, character and time of bloom that there 

 are varieties suited for almost every purpose. This group includes some of the most popular old- 

 fashioned shrubs. The Summer flowering varieties are particularly valuable because they are attrac- 

 tive when few other shrubs are in flower. All varieties do best in moist, fertile soils and sunny exposures.
