lavender, finally to blue-black. White flowers in June. 
FORSYTHIA INTERMEDIA—This is the showiest of all 
Forsythias with a specially dense flowering habit, and 
several shades darker yellow than any variety, surpass¬

The simply gorgeous late Fall colorings of the Viburnum are almost impossible to conceive, running riot 
through brilliant shades of scarlet, red, and purple together with an abundance of large clusters of glossy 
berries which in many instances remain on through to Christmas. 
The Forsythias or Golden Bells start in where the Viburnums leave off. In early spring before the leaves 
appeal- and sometimes when the snow is still on the ground they are literally covered from tip to tip with 
bright yellow flowers. Forsythias have become one of the most popular groups of shrubs grown in the 
garden. You will obtain oodles of pleasure and satisfaction from planting these six delightful shrubs this 
Fall. All 6 for $3.75.

Paper Or 
Canoe White Birch 
A Birch With a Paper-White Bark 
Probably every person who has ever seen 
the beautiful and graceful White Birch on the 
Massachusetts hills has wanted a similar tree 
upon his own property. The bark is silky, thin 
peeling. The tree's habit of growth is symmet¬ 
rical and from every point of view Birches are 
romantic and beautiful trees. We offer a few 
choice, specially collected specimen trees in extra 
large size as follows: 
10-12 ft. $3.75 each $35.00 per 10 
12-14 ft. 5.00 each 45.00 per 10 
NEW RED-LEAVED 
Japanese Barberry 
If it is color you want among your shrubs, this is the Barberry to plant. 
It is only once in a lifetime that a really worth-while outstanding novelty in hardy shrubs is introduced 
and in this new Barberry we have such a plant. 
It is similar in all respects to the green-leaved Japanese Barberry which is so popular for mixing in 
the shrubbery border, as single specimens or for planting in clumps on the lawn, as well as for foundation 
plantings and for hedges but the foliage of this new variety is of a rich, lustrous bronze red similar to the 
richest red-leaved Japanese Maples. However, unlike these and other colored shrubs in which the coloring 
fades or disappears entirely as the season advances, this new Barberry becomes more brilliant and gorgeous 
throughout the summer and in the Fall its foliage changes to vivid orange, scarlet and red shades, more 
brilliant and more effective than in the ordinary Japanese Barberry. In this coloring it is unequalled by any 
other shrub and is followed by the same brilliant scarlet berries common to the type which remain on the 
plant the entire winter. 
All that is required to develop its brilliant coloring at all seasons is that it is planted in full exposure 
to the sun. 
Large bushy plants grown expressly for landscape purposes.

flowers per bulb.

hang downward, making it very ornamental. It is one of the best trees 
for shelters and windbreaks, being an extremely rapid grower. The needles

trees are particularly well shaped and excellent compact habit. We lift 
each plant with a large ball of earth and ship with earth burlapped to roots.

round shiny buds and their second stage of part buds and part open flow¬ 
ers, followed by a smothering expanse of full-bloom flowers. Then comes 
their final gesture later when the trees are sparkling with brilliant fruits 
varying in size and color according to the variety. 
We offer a quantity of beautiful trees 4 to 5 years old that are now 
well matured and will produce immediate effect. These trees will grade 
possibly 6 to 6 feet in height, are well branched and as stated, are from 
4 to 5 years old. These will give you immediate results.

and size described for $5.00 (single trees $2.50 each).
