in the line of hard shrubs. Excellent for the front of borders or clumps of 
taller growing shrubs.

very pretty. 
CALYCANTHUS, SWEET-SCENTED SHRUB OR CAROLINA ALL-SPICE 
This is very desirable on account of its peculiarity and very pleasing frag-

with an agreeable odor. The Calycanthus blossoms in June and at intervals 
through the summer; very desirable. When full grown 6 to 8 feet. 
CHERRY, DWARF ROCKY M OU NTAI N-From the mountains of Colo- 
rado. Hardy as a Wyoming sage-brush. With its deep green willow-like 
leaves, mass of pure white flowers in spring and a load of fruit in summer, it 
is well worth cultivation for an ornamental shrub. Makes a bush four or five 
feet high, usually fruiting in two years, producing large quantities of jet 
black fruit about the size of English Morello, and ripening after all other 
cherries are gone. 
CORCORUS— A graceful, slender shrub, growing 4 to 5 feet high, flower- 
ing with double yellow flowers from early summer till fall. As pretty as a 
rose in shape of flower and very ornamental as a plant for lawn.

what the Lilac and Snowball are to the North being found in nearly every 
yard. It is a strong grower, reaching a height of 10 to 25 feet; a continuous 
bloomer during the entire summer; flowers are very pretty, having curiously 
crimped petals. The normal color pink, but varieties with blush, white and 
purple are not uncommon. It is a native of Southern Asia, probably from 
China. Not hardy in the extreme North. 
CURRANT, CRIMSON FLOWERING— Produces an abundance of crimson 
flowers in early spring. 
CURRANT, YELLOW FLOWERING — A native species with yellow' flowers. 
DEUTZIA. 
This valuable species of plants comes to us from Japan. Their hardiness, 
luxuriant foliage and profusion of attractive flowers, renders them deservedly 
among the most popular of flowering shrubs. The flowers are produced in 
June, in racemes four to six inches long.
