HYDRANGEA PANICULATA GRAND I FLORA. 
Hardy Shrubs 
The following list of Hardy Shrubs will be found most desirable for the southern 
planter. They are all well adapted to our dry seasons, and will give abundant bloom in their 
season. No yard is complete without at least a few of them, as they fill up space that noth- 
ing else will do as well; they are also desirable for cemetery planting, as they will thrive with 
little attention. The plants are strong and of the right size to plant for sure growth. A 
great mistake is often made in planting overgrown shrubs. These are of the proper size for 
planting with success. All shrubs go by express, as they are too heavy for the mails.

Lemoinei. New. Without doubt one of the 
most important new plants offered in many 
years. Its fiowers are produced in broad- 
based, cone-shaped heads of from 20 to 80 
flowers each, and are of the purest white. 
25 cts. 
Hydrangea paniculata 
grandiflora 
Most desirable, effective and popular orna- 
mental shrub extant, and its many distinct 
and striking qualities at once commend it to 
general favor for yard or lawn decoration. 
The bush comes into bloom in July and Au- 
gust, yielding profuse, massive cone-shaped 
Bowers of the purest white, which, as the 
season advances, change to delicate pink, 
and later on to rich coppery red. Seen in 
the yard or on the lawn while in full bloom, 
it is truly an imposing spectacle, the prod- 
igal display of white affording such a 
charming contrast with the green of its sur- 
roundings. The period of bloom being late, 
and prolonged for two or three months, at a 
season when other flowers are scarce and 
inferior, it serves to impart a degree of sum- 
mer freshness to the landscape. 25 cts.
