SMOOTH ROSE-ACACIA (Robinia hispida macro- 
phylla). Also called Large Flowering Pink Locust. 
To make a tree it has to be top-grafted on suitable 
straight stems. Bears a great profusion of large clus¬ 
ters of flowers in late spring. Individually they are 
exactly like large lavender-pink sweet peas. They al¬ 
ways bloom the first season planted and every spring 
thereafter. When young the trees look somewhat arti¬ 
ficial but as the head develops this effect entirely dis¬ 
appears and the result is a beautiful round headed tree 
with a perfectly straight trunk. We have them with 
heads of various ages and development and on stems 
of different height as shown in the following price 
schedule: 
extra heavy heavy 
heads heads 
8 ft. stem . $6.00 . 
7 ft. stem . 5.00 $3.50 
6 ft. stem . 4.00 3.00 
5 ft. stem . 2.50 
At first the heads balance better with the shorter stems 
but this is only temporary and in the long run the taller 
stems are far better. We also have specimen trees 
from $7.50 to $10.00 each. 
JAPANESE MAPLES (Acer palmatum vars.). We 
have an excellent stock of much finer plants of Purple 
Leaved Japanese Maples than are usually available in 
both the finely cut-leaved and broader leaved forms. Prices range from $4.00 to $15.00. 
DECIDUOUS SHRUBS 
MAGNOLIA MACROPHYLLA. This large shrub or small tree is a native of the 
South-Eastern States and is probably the most striking tree that can be grown in the 
temperate climates. The huge leaves are sometimes almost 3 ft. long and over a foot 
wide. The flowers are proportionately large, commonly a foot across and sometimes 
up to 18 or 20 inches wide. Stock limited. Gal. can 1%-2 ft. $2.00. 
JAPANESE FLOWERING QUINCES 
(Chaenomeles, formerly called Cydonia.) 
Few are aware of the great range of types and colors found in these beautiful and very 
early blooming plants. No matter how small, they usually bloom from first season on. 
CORAL GLOW (Ch. japonica corallina). One of our finest kinds. Growth moderate 
and will not get as large as the common form. Habit somewhat spreading so will usual¬ 
ly be about as wide as tall. An extremely heavy bloomer sometimes covering the bush 
almost completely with its beautiful coral or salmon-apricot colored flowers. 3-4 ft. 
$1.50, 2-3 ft. $1.25, l%-2 ft. $1.00, 1-1% ft. 75c. 
JAPANESE SCARLET (Ch. lagenaria). The old favorite and really rose pink. 4-6 
ft. $1.25, 1-1% ft. 60c. 
BLOOD RED (Ch. lagenaria rubra grandiflora). Very early, very large flowers, deep 
red. 1-1% ft. 75c, 8-12 in. 60c.
