WEIGHLA. 
WE1QELA. 
Beautiful shrubs that bloom in June and July. The 
flowers are produced in such great profusion as to 
almost entirely hide the foliage. They are very desir- 
able for borders or for grouping, and also as specimen 
plants for the lawn. 
Rosea nana variegata. One of the most conspicu- 
ous shrubs that we cultivate; leaves beautifully 
margined with creamy white ; flowers pink. It is a 
dwarf grower, and admirably adapted to small 
lawns or gardens. 15 cts. ; large, 25 cts. 
! Hendcrsoni. A strong-growing variety, with deep 
rose-colored flowers. 15 cts. ; large, 25 cts. 
Candida. This is the very best of all the white-flow- 
ered weigelas. A strong, upright, erect grower ; 
flowers pure white, and produced in great profusion 
in June; it continues to bloom through the entire 
summer. 20 cts. ; large, 25 cts. 
Rosea. A beautiful shrub, bearing rose-colored flow- 
ers in May and June. 15 cts. ; large, 25 cts. 
lionerii. A variety with deep crimson flowers ; very 
free-flowering. 15 cts. ; large, 25 cts. 
SYRINQA. 
(Philadelphus Grandiflorus.) 
The Syringa is a valuable hardy shrub of vigorous 
habit, with large, handsome foliage. All of the varie- 
ties flower in June, after the weigela. By planting the 
late-flowering sorts, the season may be considerably 
extended. The white, sweet-scented flowers have a 
fragrance like orange blossoms. 15 cts. ; large, 25 cts. 
HIGH-BUSH CRANBERRY. 
Both ornamental and useful ; its red berries resem- 
ble cranberries, and are esteemed by many ; they 
hang until destroyed by frost. The plant is like the 
snowball in wood and foliage. It is very hardy and 
ornamental in habit, especially when covered with its 
thick clusters of large, bright red berries. The berries 
are rich, tart and juicy in flavor. 20 cts., 6 fo> Si. 
Hardy Grasses. 
These are very desirable for lawn planting, and 
serve to remove stiffness in landscape effects. 
EULALIA. 
E. Gracillima Univittata. One of the most beau' 
tiful of ornamental grasses; this is a new variety- 
and is favored above all others, owing to its graceful 
habit of growth. It is vigorous ; perfectly hardy ; a 
light green, with silvery white tint; attractive for 
planting anywhere. 25 cts., 35 cts. and 50 cts. 
E. Japonica. A hardy perennial, with long, narrow 
leaves striped with green and white ; stalks four 
to six feet high, terminating in a cluster of flower 
spikes. The flowers are surrounded with long, silky 
threadSj which expand when fully ripe, or when 
placed in a warm room, giving the head a graceful 
and beautiful appearance, like that of an ostrich 
feather curled. 25 cts. and 35 cts. 
E. Japonica Zebrina. Unlike most plants with 
variegated foliage, the striping runs across the leaves 
instead of longitudinally, in bands of yellow one-half 
inch wide. Late in fall it is covered with flower- 
spikes, resembling ostrich plumes. Perfectly hardy, 
increasing in beauty from year to year ; a most 
valuable plant. 25 cts., 35 cts. and 50 cts. 
E. Ravenna;. A grass of fine foliage and handsome 
plumes, much resembling the Pampas Grass, and 
grows to a height of 8 to 10 feet. Very hardy, very 
ornamental on the lawn, and in the fall, when cut 
and dried, are prized for decorating parlors, etc. 
Price, mail or express, 15 cts. each, 4 for 50 cts. ; 
large clumps, 50 cts. each.
