The Flowering Crab 
D O YOU recall a gorgeous cover of the Garden 
Magazine a year ago, showing the rose-like 
cluster blossoms of Bechtel’s Flowering Crab? 
In the same issue was a splendid article by John Dun- 
bar of the Rochester Park System on what he calls 
"the most wonderful of all the flowering trees for 
American gardens — the Crabapple.” There is no 
exaggeration in his glowing description of "the fragile 
tracery and delicacy of their bloom," their wide range 
of coloring from white to pink and rose-crimson, and 
their profuse flowering, starting very young and in- 
creasing in glory from year to year — while in the fall 
the branches are laden with miniature golden-yellow 
or ruby-red fruits, that may be cut for interior decora- 
tion, or left to attract and feed the birds. 
We are as enthusiastic about the Flowering Crab 
as Mr. Dunbar is — and as you will be when you plant 
it on your lawn, and feast on its loveliness from year 
to year. The Bechtel variety in particular bears a 
fascinating likeness to the rose. This and other vari- 
eties may be planted either alone or in groups like 
shrubbery, or in skilful combination 
with shrubbery. 
How grateful you will be when you 
wake up some nice morning in May 
to find your Crabapples in a shower 
of bloom! Order some now — in sizes 
from 5 to 1 0 feet high, from $3 to $ 1 0 
each — you can’t make a mistake! T ell 
us something about your lawn and we’ 11 
tell you how and where to plant them.
