THE OLD ENGLISH VARIETY 40 
AND ORNAMENTALS 
Hardy Flowering Shrubs do not receive the attention that their importance merits, for, in the embellishment of Flower Gardens, Lawns 
and Pleasiire Grounds, they play a most important part in producing a pleasing effect by their variety of form, the beauty of their flowers and 
the different seasons at which they bloom. In many cases they are simply planted to fill up some ocfd corner, where nothing else will grow, 
whereas they deserve the most prominent positions and careful culture, and this they will repay a thousand fold. Prices are according to the size 
of the Plants.
