Anthony Waterer — New Crimson Spirea. By all 
odds the finest of the dwarf Spireas, and a grand acquisition.

— and is the most profuse and persistent bloomer of them all; 
bearing continuously large, flat clusters of lovely flowers 
throughout the whole of summer and autumn. The plant is of 
dwarf habit and dense growth, comes into bloom very early

numerous tall, slender shoots, which curve gracefully towards 
the ground, and the last of May or in June are literally covered 
with pure white flowers, making the bush a mass of snowy 
bloom. 
Honeysuckles. 
For real handsome vines, to be near you, climbing over 
windows and doorways, there is nothing prettier than sweet- 
scented Honeysuckles; the foliage is pretty, neat and clean, the 
flowers are almost continuous, and their fragrance delicious. 
The varieties described below are the very best. 
Honeysuckle Hedges — Some of our friends have 
conceived the idea of planting Honeysuckles along the division 
fences, and it is wonderful what pretty hedges they make. 
Iron or wire fences are the best, but almost any kind is soon 
covered with a mantle of living green. Other climbing vines 
will answer the purpose, but the sweet-scented Honeysuckles 
are both fragrant and beautiful. They should be planted two 
feet apart. 
Chinese (Lonicera Sinensis)— This variety has reddish 
green foliage and redish flower buds. When the flowers are 
expanded creamy-white petals are displayed. 
Hall’s Japan — A strong growing, almost evergreen 
sort, with pure white flowers changing to yellow. Very 
fragrant and covered with flowers from July to November.

Blooms all summer; leaves tinged reddish color. 
Scarlet Trumpet — Bright red trumpet-shaped flowers: 
blooms freely, vigorous and rapid growing. 
Price of Honeysuckles 12 cts. each; the four 
varieties, one of each, for 40 ct«.
