No more highly ornamental class of 
trees and shrubs exist than is 
included in the Magnolia family. 
This is especially true of those known as 
the Asiatic species, which bloom before 
the leaves appear in the spring. Every- 
one is familiar with the large cup-shaped 
pink and white fragrant blooms which 
suddenly envelop the plant and fill the air 
with a delicate fragrance before we are 
hardly aware that spring has really 
arrived. There are a number of species 
and varieties varying in color, form, and 
time of blooming, from the bush-like 
Stellata with its very white and many- 
petaled bloom, to the more sedate and 
stately Lennei, blooming a month later, 
producing great cup-shaped, deep rosy 
red flowers. Our stock of the following kinds is very fine and most of them will 
take up and transplant with large balls of earth. When handled in this way we 
believe practically no loss should result. 
STELLATA OR HALLEANA, sometimes known as the Star-Magnolia. It is a 
shrub seldom reaching a height of fifteen feet. Plants but a foot high will often 
bloom profusely. It is the first strictly hardy magnolia to bloom in the spring 
and its dainty but showy pure white flowers of delicate fragrance are always 
welcome.

YULAN OR CONSPICUA. Of a slow growth but eventually forms a tree. The 
flowers are of a creamy white, very large and fragrant. This beautiful magnolia 
is difficult to procure, in fact the only way we have been able to procure it has 
been to import direct from Japan its native home as all we have received from 
European sources have proved to be other sorts.

SOULANGEANA. This is the very well known and more common pink magno- 
lia. It is a hybrid garden variety and very desirable. The pink cup-shaped 
flowers are very fragrant. 
ALEXANDRINA. Similar to preceding but blooms earlier, just after Yulan. 
SPECIOSA. Much lighter in color and some larger than Soulangeana, blooms 
at about the same time. 
NORBERTIANA. Similar to Soulangeana, but blooms later. 
LENNEI. The latest of the class to bloom and the flowers are the largest and 
of a deep rose red on the outside of the petal, inside a rosy white. This is one of 
the most effective of the magnolias and has the additional value of blooming at 
intervals throughout the summer.
