HENRY A. DREER, 714 Chestnut Street, Philadelphia, Pa. 



Choice Hardy Shrubs. 



Deutzia Lemoinei. 



Dentzia Lemoinei. 



Without doubt one of the most important new hardy 

 plants offered in many years. It is a hybrid between D. 

 gracilis and D. parviflora, and has the advantage over the 

 former of having flowers nearly three times as large, which 

 are produced in broad-based, cone-shaped heads of from 20 

 to 30 flowers each, and are of purest white, which open out 

 very full. It is perfectly hardy, and will not only prove a 

 valuable plant for the garden, but is certain to become one 

 of the standard plants for forcing into flower in winter, 

 more especially at Easter, and it is quite sure to take the 

 place of the popular D. gracilis. This plant has received 

 the highest awards from the National Horticultural Society 

 of France, and has created quite a sensation wherever 

 shown. Good one-year-old plants, $1.25 per dozen ; $10.00 

 per 100. 



Three Choice New Deutzias. 



Offered for the first time this season. 



Deutzia Gracilis Rosea. A strong vigorous growing 

 variety, attaining a height of 3 feet, of erect branching 

 habit and remarkably floriferous ; flowers of large size 

 and open out very full, color blush white, the reverse of 

 petals being of a delicate but fresh ro«e. 



Deutzia Qracilis Venusta. A handsome white variety 

 of dwarf branching habit, producing elongated cone- 

 shaped panicles of pure white flowers of large size, the 

 individual flowers reminding one of a single azalea in 

 miniature. 



Deutzia Lemoinei Oompaota. Identical with D. 

 Lemoinei but of much dwarfer compact habit.

New Weigelia £va Rathke. 



It is only rarely that we notice decided novelties in this 

 popular shrub, Vjut in Eva Rathke, we certainly have a 

 grand acquisition, a variety that is at once a remarkably 



free bloomer, and entirely distinct in color, it being a rich 

 reddish purple, entirely different from anything before 

 offered. Extra heavy two-year-old plants, 35 cents each ; 

 $3.50 per dozen.
