For Summer Bloom 
Japanese Tree Lilac (Syringa japonica) 
This Lilac blooms in June, long after the old fashioned and French Hybrid Lilacs have 
finished, and therefore never injured by frost. The snowy fleecy-white flowers are produced in 
large erect symmetrical clusters; and when not in bloom the deep green foliage makes this a 
handsome plant of highest ornamental qualities. Grows 10 to 12 feet high, bush-like as illus¬ 
trated or tree-form. 
3 to 4 ft. Plants, $1.00 each; 3 for $2.50 F. O. B. Piqua 
5 to 6 ft. Specimen Plants, $1.50 each, F. O. B. Piqua. 
Oakleaf Hydrangea 
2 to 3 ft. Plants, $0.75 each; 
3 for $2.00 F. O. B. Piqua 
As nearly all of the better known 
shrubs bloom in the Spring, many gar¬ 
dens are devoid of flowers during the 
summer months when they can be en¬ 
joyed the most. The following worth¬ 
while shrubs have this summer-flowering 
appeal. 
Oakleaf Hydrangea 
(Hydrangea quercifolia) 
This is the Aristocrat of the Hydrangeas, not 
to be confused with the common dooryard va¬ 
riety. Its large substantial leaves resemble the 
oak leaf; attractive panicled blooms appear in 
early summer, and the autumn coloring is al¬ 
most beyond description. Not hard to grow; only 
its scarcity has kept it in the background. The 
one shrub we recommend for that shadiest place, 
if not too dry. 
12 to 15 in. Plants, $0.50 each; 
3 for $1.25 Postpaid.
