importance than the Phlox which succeed 
under almost any conditions and flower from 
the end of June until late in the Pafl; and

tention, still they are much improved by lib- 
eral cultivation. Although there are quite a

JAPANESE BARBERRY 
(Berberis Thunbergii) 
This is the most valuable for making a 
low dwarf hedge. It is of low, regular and 
compact growth, and requires very little 
pruning. It has fine thorns and small round 
rich green leaves that change color in tlie 
Autumn to a fiery crimson. The hedge is 
made still more beautiful by great numbers 
of pretty drooping yellow flowers which are 
followed by bright red berries. It is fre- 
quently planted singly, and Is one of the 
handsomest flowering shrubs we have.
