“QUEEN 
of 
THEM ALL” 
That is the way 
one prominent 
grower describes 
Mrs. Carl Salbach. 
What a tribute! 
There are so many 
exquisite flowers in 
the world of Dahl¬ 
ias, and Mrs. Carl 
Salbach reigns 
wherever she goes 
— in all climes, under all conditions. 
Gathered about Mrs. Carl Salbach in our “Blue Book" is 
our selection from the blue-bloods of the dahlia and glad¬ 
ioli world. 
Our catalog lists the latest dahlia creations and newest 
gladioli—our own and other originators’. There is a copy 
for you—for the asking. 
We invite correspondence on quantity prices. Mrs. Carl 
Salbach is excellent for massing.

TWO VINES OF RARE BEAUTY 
Chinese 
Fleecevine 
(Polygonum 
auberti) 
Quick-growing, free- 
blooming, unusually 
hardy and reliable un¬ 
der all conditions, this 
ornamental climber from 
Western China twines 
about any form of sup¬ 
port, growing with 
great rapidity to a 
height of 25 feet and 
covering a large space. 
Covered in September 
with graceful sprays of 
snowy white flowers. 
Follows and is better 
than Clematis panic- 
ulata. Clean, healthy 
foliage, attractive all 
season. 
Climbing 
Hydrangea 
(.Schhophragma 
hydrangeoides) 
Wonderfully effective. It 
climbs up tree trunks and 
covers stone, brick, or 
stucco walls with dense, 
handsome, bright green 
foliage from early spring 
to late fall, and with 
great showy clusters of 
white blossoms, resembl¬ 
ing Hydrangea, in mid¬ 
summer. Clinging like 
Ivy, it will eventually 
reach a height of 30 feet 
or more. Grows well in 
partially shaded places; 
vigorous and unusually 
free from pests and dis¬ 
eases.
