Hartwegi. (New.) A fine buddleia now offered 
for the first time. The flowers on the 
racemes are much more closely packed than 
in magnifica, Lavender Glory and others in 
commerce, and the color is more on the 
blue side than in these older varieties. Tests 
made at the Ohio State University the past 
summer show that Hartwegi and another 
variety being disseminated this year under 
the name of “Fortunei” are identical. This 
is easily the best addition to the list of the 
very useful “summer flowering Lilacs” and 
would seem to deserve a place in every gar¬ 
den where a long season of bloom and flow¬ 
ers for cutting are desired.75 cents each 
CALLICARPA. 
Japonica. Pink flowered shrub of attractive 
habit, the flowers are followed by beau¬ 
tiful blue berries.75 cents each 
CALCYANTHUS. 
Floridus. (Sweetshrub or Spicebush.) Fra¬ 
grant chocolate colored flowers. . .$.75-$1.0'0 each 
CARYOPTERIS. (Blue Spiraea.) 
incana. Silvery green foliage and clear blue 
flowers, sometimes called the blue Spiraea, 
very free flowering.50 cents each 
mastacanthus, pure white, a grand addition 
to the Caryopteris family blooming in the 
late fall.50 cents each 
mastacanthus, pure pink, a splendid com¬ 
panion to the blue and white varieties of 
this very desirable late flowering shrub. 
NOTE—We wish to direct special attention 
to the two excellent novelties listed above 
which make a welcome addition to our lim¬ 
ited number of fall flowering shrubs.
