Outstanding Deciduous Flowering Shrubs 
Shrubs form an all-important part of the planting of any 
grounds. Either in groups, borders, or as individual specimens, 
they are equally beautiful. They are especially effective as a 
screen or border marking boundaries, particularly where formal 
hedges are not desired. 
The following selection of varieties offers practically every¬ 
thing which is hardy and of distinctive merit. By noting the 
season of bloom given in the descriptions, you can easily arrange 
a selection of shrubs to be in bloom almost every day of the 
growing season. 
We have spaced our shrubs, in the nursery rows, for maximum 
development rather than the greatest number of plants in a row, 
and even our smallest sizes have been once transplanted before 
they are dug for orders.
