How easy it is to have a screen about the garage or stable, and what an attractive effect it can be made to produce. 

 A planting such as the one shown here consists of such shrubs as Witch Hazel, Deutzia, Weigelias, Mock Orange 

 and Forsythia. They were all grown at our Nurseries. We will help to arrange for such a planting on your lawn. 



Cornus. The Osier Dogwoods, or Cornels 



DOGWOODS are strong growers in almost any soil, and are hardy from the warmer parts 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. Many varieties are indigenous through- 

 out the United States and are particularly suited for mass planting or natural effects. Good for decorating 

 along streams or for moist soils. The tree shape varieties are listed on page 44.
