from Japan. It has adapted itself to our soils as no other variety of Azalea. We have 
watched the growth of this plant for several years, and can highly recommend it for general 
planting. The leaves are long, narrow, and dark glossy green in color, resembling the 
Rhododendron, though iruich smaller. Habit of growth somewhat spreading. Flowers

BARBERRIES - Berberis 
Thunberg (B. Thunbergii). Japanese Barberry. The most popular shrub in 
use today, and the demand for it is ever increasing. Its use is without limit, and any 
landscape work would not be complete without a generous planting of this Japanese shrub. 
It is most desirable for foundation work, and for hedges and massing effects. Thrives 
well in all kinds of soil, anil adajjts itself to shad-\' places and e\'en where grass cannot be 
made to grow. Round drooping habit ; leaves of a fine brilliant green in summer, taking 
on from early autumn till December, the most glowing colors. After the lea\'es fall, the 
branches are seen to be loaded with scarlet-crimson berries. It is the very best of all jjlants 
to form a hedge, 
being imjienetrable 
and thickly set with 
spines, and never 
growing bare. 12 to 
IS in., 20 cts.; $2.00 
per doz.; $15.00 per 
100. 18 to 24 in., 25 
cts.; $2.50 per doz. 
$20.00 per 100. 24 
30 in., 35 cts.;. $3.50 
lier doz.; $25.00 per 
100.

I)art of May aTid 
through the month 
of June we trans-

Thunbergii with

quite an additional 
expense in handling,

plants transplanted 
in this manner.
