HYDRANGEA PANICULATA GRANDIFLORA. 
This is the most popular hardy shrub of the day, and one of the easiest 
to grow. It does well in any and all soils, but the flowers will be larger and 
finer is given good, rich soil. The flowers are in immense panicles, creamy 
white when first opening, changing to pure white when fully open then turn- 
ing to pink and bronze as the flower grows older. It blooms in August, and 
remains in bloom until heavy frosts. At least half of the previous year's 
growth should be cut back each spring, as the flowers are much larger and 
finer when treated in this manner. We have a fine stock of extra strpng 
plants at 50c. each, $4.00 per doz. ; smaller plants, 25c. and 35c. each, $2.50 
and $3.50 per doz.
