18 Shrubs Along Foundations Add a Final Touch of Permanent Beauty 
The Three Most Popular Shrubs 
for Foundation 
Planting 
Spirea Anthony Waterer. Another ex' 
cellent and very effective Spirea for 
mass plantings. Its gray'Crimson flow' 
ers and variegated foliage make a 
beautiful contrast with other shrubs, 
and on account of its dwarfish nature 
it should be kept in the foreground. 
It is very hardy, and with its showy 
bloom coming “between spells” 
when few other shrubs are blooming, 
make it doubly essential for the home 
planting. The Anthony Waterer 
usually has its big wealth of bloom 
in July, and if there is plenty of 
rainfall this delightful, low shrub has 
a habit of being somewhat ever' 
blooming throughout the summer. 
The new growth has a few crimson 
flowers, furnishing color over a long 
period. 2-yr., 12 to 18 in., 15c 
each; $1.50 per doz., post¬ 
paid. 18 to 24 in., 35c each; 
$3.00 per doz., postpaid. 
Spirea Van Houttei (Bridal Wreath). 
Graceful, with long, drooping sprays, 
thickly studded with handsome pure 
white flowers, hence its popular name 
of “Bridal Wreath”. This is the 
finest and probably the most beau' 
tiful of the Spireas, and one of the 
most popular of all shrubs. In May 
and June the arching branches are 
covered with little white flowers. The 
foliage is very beautiful, dark green 
in color, and finely cut, making the 
bush attractive even after the flowers 
are gone. It grows 6 feet in height, 
is extremely hardy, and can be used 
to good advantage either as a sped' 
men or in the border. One of the 
best for flowering hedges and screens, 
in fact, its uses are legion. The 
Spirea is very prominent in mass 
planting. 2-yr., 18 to 24 in., 
10c each; $1.00 per doz., 
postpaid. 2 to 3 ft., 20c 
each; $1.50 per doz., post¬ 
paid. 3- to 4-ft. clumps, 35c each; $3.00 per doz., postpaid.
