HYDRANGEAS 
VIBURNUM—SNOWBALL 
Viburnum Tomentosum Plicatum (Japanese 
Snowball) — It is hardy and produces great 
white balls of blooms, and Avith its handsome 
foliage it is more used in landscape work. 
Viburnum Opulus or Red-berried Snowball— 
There are a number of attractive varieties of 
Avliite-floAA'ered and showy-berried Viburnum, 
but the old Viburnum Opulus is by far the 
handsomest for an all-year shrub as it does 
not only produce attractive, white blooms but 
these are followed by shiny, red berries that 
persist throughout the winter and make the 
plant most desirable. 
Viburnum Opulus Sterilis (Common Snowball) 
—the old-fashioned sort, producing its large 
globular clusters of pure white flowers in May 
and .Tune. Most everybody wants a few, as 
they bring back memories of the old home, and 
too, make a very attractive appearance.

Hydrangea Paniculata Grandiflora—-A beauti¬ 
ful hardy shrub, with bright shiny green 
leaves, bearing huge panicles of flowers 6 to 7 
inches in diameter, and 8 to 10 inches long. 
Begins to flower in July, appearing white for 
three or four weeks, when it begins to change 
to a light pink, turning brown later in the fall. 
A fine thing for planting with other shrubbery, 
banking with coniferous evergreens, clumps or 
border planting, or alone. This is the thing 
about which you hear so many exclaim “Oh! 
what, is that pretty flower yonder?” It is fine.
