and Dwarf Trees 
Surely there are barren places on your lawn which call for some of our lovely flowering shrubs this 
season. Our assortment of Hardy Shrubs has never been better, and if you are so wise as to buy a few at 
this time, their ioliage and flowers will amaze you this year and for many years to come. 
The prices quoted are for well developed, stocky plants. A dozen of any variety will be supplied for 
ten times the price of one (six for five times the price of one), but this dozen rate may be used only when 
six or more of one variety are taken. The hundred rate of any variety will be promptly sent if desired.
