( Viburnum plicatuin.) 
NOW BALL shrubs have always been popular. The one generally known as 
the old fashioned snowball does not often prove satisfactory as the leaves curl 
up and destroy the beauty of the plant, but with this species from Japan, 
one of its great attractions, is its beautiful plicated dark green foliage. The snow- 
balls are very perfect and white and borne with so great a profusion that the plant 
when in flower is quite enveloped in bloom. This species of snowball will flourish 
in any garden soil or exposure but reaches its greatest perfection in partial shade. 
It is a very good shrub to plant on the shady side of a building. 
VIBURNUM TOMENTOSUM. This shrub is very like the above with the 
exception that its bloom are in flat cymes instead of balls. To many it has a 
picturesque gracefulness lacking in the former. In fact the popularity of the two 
is about equally divided. The autumn foliage coloring of this one is richer in its 
ambers and reds than the former.
