Styrax Japonica. Another small tree, producing snowy white, bell- 
shaped flowers, hanging in great profusion on long pedicles along 
the branches. The leaves are glossy green, and the tree is per- 
fectly hardy. $i. 
Malus Halleana. This Japanese crabapple is quite distinct, produc- 
ing narrow leaves and pink flowers, pendulous upon long stems, 
quite striking when in bud. This is believed to be identical with 
" Pyrus Malus ParUmani." 50 cents. 
Malus floribunda. Another profuse flowering crab. 50 cents. 
Exocordia grandiflora. A choice, hardy, profuse flowering shrub 
of light, graceful growth, with white flowers in long spikes, some- 
what like the mock orange, but much more graceful. Not new, 
but deserving a wider introduction. 50 cents. 
Weigelia Lowii. Mr. Meehan exactly describes this variety as "hav- 
ing dark-crimson flowers, with white stamens projecting, reminding 
somewhat of fuchsia flowers." But he seems to me to be in error 
in naming it W. floribunda, an old variety, from which this is 
entirely distinct. His praise of this is well merited. 2 to 3 feet, 
37 cents; ^3 per dozen. 
Berberis Thunbergii. This low-growing shrub, though not new, is 
yet so pretty in its arching habit, and its foliage changes to such 
brilliant colors in fall, that it deserves a place on every lawn. Its 
scarlet berries are also very brilliant, and since they do not shrivel 
with frost, and remain untouched by birds until new leaves appear 
in the spring, it is very ornamental throughout the winter. As it 
becomes known it will be largely in demand. Large plants, 50 
cents; small, 25 cents. 
Schweidler Maple. Though of recent introduction, its brilliance of 
color in its early summer growth, changing to rich dark green as 
the season advances, has already raised it to the first rank as a 
lawn or street tree. For this purpose it is the best of all the 
maples. My stock of this exceedingly beautiful tree is believed 
to be the largest and best in the country. Price, 4 feet, 50 cents; 
6 feet, 75 cents; 8 feet, ^i; 10 feet, $1.50; 15 feet, $3. 
Reitenbach Maple. Another distinct and valuable variety of the 
Norway type, with rich, dark, metallic leaves. 75 cents to $1.50.
