SAKATA’S RELIABLE SEEDS 
PRUNUS SERRULATA (Oriental Cherry) 
Another parent to a large group of hardy double flowering varieties. 
The low price of the seed permits its extensive use as understock. 
$1.00 lb; $9.00 10 lbs. 
PRUNUS SERRULATA SACHALINENSIS (Ezo-Yama Cherry) 
Also known as Sargent Cherry. Native of northern Japan and, therefore, 
perfectly hardy. Flowers are rich rosy pink, fading to pink and the 
largest of all Japanese Cherries. Very hardy. 
$1.75 lb; $16.00 10 lbs. 
PRUNUS SUBHIRTELLA (Spring Cherry) 
One of the most beautiful of all the lesser flowering trees. It is an extra 
early flowering variety and exceedingly floriferous year after year, and 
its blossoms last longer than those of other single flowered types. At 
first pink, the flowers become lighter with age, until, when ready to fall, 
they are almost white. Flowers already in March/April.

rigid stems are densely packed with Double Rose-like pink blossoms.

PRUNUS YEDOENSIS (Yoshino Cherry) 
“This is the Cherry,” wrote Mr. Wilson, “so generally planted in the 
parks, temple grounds, cemeteries and streets of Tokyo. Its flowering is 
the occasion of a popular festival in the city of Tokyo.” The blossoms 
are white flushed with pink. 
$ 1.75 lb ; $ 16.00 10 lbs. 
PUERARIA THUNBERGIANA (Kudzu Vine) 
For large quantity price on application. 
The use of this plant as a forage crop is highly recommended. The U. 
S. Department of Agriculture went to the expense of sending representa¬ 
tives to the Orient to further study it. To quickly establish a field, the 
use of seedlings has been found advisable due to its slow initial develop¬ 
ment. Particularly in the Southern States, where the plant is best 
known, the growing of seedlings should prove profitable. Being of 
rapid growth, it makes a good cover. 
$1.45 lb; $13.00 10 lbs. 
RHAMNUS DAVURICA (Dahurian Buckthorn) 
The loose, irregular, horizontal branching habit of the Dahurian Buck¬ 
thorn is the plant’s outstanding characteristics although its firmly textured, 
narrow-elliptic to oblong, deep green leaves, are quite a bit larger than 
those of most species. The flowers and fruit are much alike those of R. 
cathartica. 
$ 3.00 lb ; $ 27.00 10 lbs. 
RHODOTYPOS KERRIOIDES (Jetbead) 
Resembles Kerria japonica but with white flowers. A handsome and 
distinct shrub, hardy as far north as Mass, with bright green foliage. 
$ 1.25 lb ; $ 11.00 10 lbs.
