two or three feet high this makes a very desirable shrub. Bare roots.

balled and burlapped add 25 cents each.

ORNAMENTAL SHRUBS 
ALTHEA OR ROSE OF SHARON.—One of the hardiest shrubs 
grown; there is no plant that will give better results as single specimens 
or groupings; plants bloom from early summer to autumn; red, pink, 
white and purple. 
TAMARIX.—Tall, graceful, with juniper-like foliage and a great 
profusion of delicate rose-purple flowers covering the entire surface. 
A handsome shrub at all seasons. 
WEIGELIA.—Elegant, with fine rose-colored flowers, hardy, and 
bloom when quite small. One of the most popular and satisfactory 
shrubs. 
BUDDLEIA VARIABLES.—A shrub not so well known but 
withstands the heat and drouth of summer remarkably well. A strong 
grower, often attaining a height of six to eight feet. Foliage dark 
green and very heavy. Throughout the entire summer flowers of 
violet-purple with orange throat; very fragant, are borne in long 
plumes. 
LILAC.—One of the oldest yet most popular of shrubs; in frag¬ 
rance and beauty this bush is unsurpassed and is very hardy; white, 
purple and other shades; blooms April and May. 
HONEYSUCKLE.—One of the best species, 8 to 10 feet tall. Its 
fine pink flowers in late spring contrast beautifully with its bright 
green foliage, but its chief charm is its wreath of orange or red berries, 
which literally cover the plant in summer and autumn, and makes a 
most glorious show. Colors: red, pink, and white. 
DEUTZIA.—An upright, thrifty shrub, with a profusion of deli¬ 
cate, b.autiful white and pink flowers in spring. 
SPIREA, VAN HOUTTEI.—The well-known bridal wreath, wide¬ 
ly grown favorite with dense foliage. Flowers cover entire plant, mak¬ 
ing long gracefully curving branches of snow-white blossoms. Blooms 
in early spring, prolonged season. Leaves persistent in fall; a desir¬ 
able feature. The finest of Spireas and the standby for planting of 
flowering shrubs. Good among evergreen for contrast. Fill low places 
admirably and make excellent borders or informal hedges. Beautiful 
for garden specimens in large clumps.
