You should know this group of shrubs bet¬ 
ter. They have bell-shaped blossoms, cover¬ 
ing the branches. Let me recommend them 
as one of the best shrubs for a shady spot in 
your planting and you will be pleased with 
them. 
ORACIXiIS. A slender branched, dwarf¬ 
growing, dense, bushy shrub. White flow¬ 
ers in May 12-15 in., 25c each; 15-18 in.,

PRIDE OP ROCHESTER. Earliest, blooming 
in May. Many large, double white flowers. 
Grows about 6 feet tall. Popular on ac¬ 
count of its regal appearance. 12-18 in., 20c 
each; 18-24 in., 25c each. 
Pearl Bush 
The early buds look like pearls strung on 
slender threads; in May opening up pure 
white so the bush seems to be covered with 
snow. Grows vigorous, about 8 to 10 ft. high.

two or more of these for cross pollination so 
you will get more berries. Some call it Ilex.

Dogwood 
When shrubs and trees have lost 
their leaves, Dogwoods are still 
beautiful because of the color of 
their bark and the berries covering 
the bushes. Imagine the bright red 
bark of the Red Bark Dogwood and 
its blue berries against the white 
snow-covered ground. They are fav¬ 
orites of the birds because of their 
berries. They are vigorous and grow 
in shady places.

Barked). Bright yellow bark. A 
beautiful sight when planted with 
red and gray. Shows up wonder¬

the coral red bark. Several in my own yard are

mer; porcelain blue berries in the Fall. 12-18
