background. Scarlet fruits in the fall.

SYRINGA, VIRGINAL. A truly mag¬ 
nificent shrub, and conceded to be the 
finest of all Syringas. The pure white 
flowers are extra large, five to seven 
in a cluster, some single, some double, 
some semi-double, and of the finest 
fragrance. A long bloomer—in fact, 
almost everblooming. 6 to 8 feet at 
maturity. Each 10

TAMARISK, GALLICA. A graceful, fairy-like shrub, often growing 10 to 12 feet high 
when untrimmed. Foliage is very delicate and feathery, light green in color, and when 
topped with the long, loose sprays of tiny pink flowers, it makes a most compelling pic¬ 
ture—like a pink and silver mist. Will do well in either moist or dry soil.

SNOWBALL (Viburnum opulus sterile). A showy plant for the May garden, and has 
always been popularly planted for its early. Decoration Day blooms. Very hardy, pro¬ 
ducing in quantity the well known, white, ball-shaped blooms. A favorite for cemetery 
planting and for the “homey” garden. 6 to 8 feet at maturity.

High Bush Cranberry. 
HIGH BUSH CRANBERRY (Viburnum 
opulus). Large bunches of shiny, crimson 
berries in the fall and winter are a dis¬ 
tinguishing feature and particularly orna¬ 
mental. Early in the season, the hand¬ 
some, bright green foliage sets off so well 
the soft white flowers that are somewhat flattened. Sturdy, vigorous, beautiful; it does 
well in sunlight or shade. 6 to 10 feet at maturity.

crop of attractive berries, which at first are red, changing to blue-black. Its bright green 
foliage assumes purplish tints in the fall. Grows about 8 feet tall, and does well in 
partial shade.

WEIGELA ROSEA. How can it help but be popular, with its showy display of fine, bell- 
shaped, rose-pink flowers in May and June? Broad, bushy plant, with large, deep green

foundation groups, or in massed borders. 4 to 6 feet high at maturity.

Snowball. 
WEIGELA, EVA RATHKE. An extra choice sort, with beau¬ 
tiful blooms very similar to the Rosea, except that they are 
very rich, deep crimson in color, and such an abundance of 
them. A splendid shrub for the foundation planting or the 
informal border. 3 to 4 feet at maturity.

FRENCH PUSSY WILLOW (Salix caprea). A very interesting 
shrub or dwarf tree, producing many furlike catkins, one to 
two inches long, up and down upright stems. Quite often 
these pearl-gray catkins have a touch of pink, and are de¬ 
lightful in winter bouquets. The branches can be cut any 
time in December, January or February; then, if placed in¬ 
doors in a vase of water, they will quickly burst forth into 
bloom. Remove from the water when in full bloom, and. 
they will retain their loveliness for months. 6 to 10 feet at 
maturity.
