is a shrub you must not miss.

everyone should have this un¬ 
usual shrub in their lawn. The 
tiny new buds are little pearls 
up and down the stem. 12 to 18 
in., 30c each, postpaid.

shrubby bush with lovely green 
foliage of bright red branches. 
The white blossoms are followed 
by spectacular purple berries 
that hold on into late fall. Many 
folks ask me about this shrub 
for it’s growing on the north 
side of my house. It’s hardy, 
vigorous, and I think it’s a 
dandy. Comes up from the 
ground each year. 25c each, 
postpaid. .
