HYDRANGEA 
French Blue. Used extensively on the 
Atlantic Seaboard, producing immense 
heads of blue flowers. The choice Sum¬ 
mer flowering shrub. Used both as an 
outdoor Shrub and a potted plant. 
French Pink. Highly decorative plant, 
similar to the French Blue type except 
the flowers are pink. 
Note—The French. Hydrangeas vary 
so much in color due to their extreme 
sensitiveness to soil conditions that, 
while we fill orders according to color as 
grown in our soil, we cannot guarantee 
them to be same color when planted in 
other soils. 
Hills of Snow (Arborescens grandi¬ 
flora alba). A magnificent, hardy, 
American shrub, with white blossoms, 
resembling Snowballs. Comes into 
bloom after early shrubs quit bloom¬ 
ing. Not a tall grower as Paniculata 
Grandiflora, but makes a neater appear¬ 
ance. A good foundation plant. Does 
well in a shady location. See illustra¬ 
tion in color, page 21. 
Hydrangea paniculata grandiflora. 
Usually referred to as Hydrangea 
P. G. This is one of the most popular 
shrubs in our list. Grows to a height of 
6-8 ft. and produces in August large, 
cone-shaped flowers of pinkish white 
which gradually turn to a deep pinkish 
red. Fine for planting in hedges, bord¬ 
ers, groups or alone as a specimen. 
See illustration in color, page 21. 
HOW TO PLANT SHRUBS 
Keep roots covered with damp sack or 
something similar 
and do not let them 
become dry. Spade 
ground deeply, dig¬ 
ging large holes with 
perpendicular sides. 
Cut off broken or 
bruised roots and cut 
back top one third to 
one half as illustrat¬ 
ed. Plant slightly 
deeper than they 
stood in nursery. 
Tamp soil firmly, 
around roots and fill 1 
top of hole with sev¬ 
eral inches of loose 
earth to serve as 
mulch. 
EUONYMUS 
Euonymus alatus (Burningbush). An 
unusual shrub. Upright, dwarf habit, 
compact, horizontal spreading 
branches with a unique, corky, 
winged growth, covering small, 
rich green, pointed leaves; tiny 
chocolate colored flowers followed 
by red berries. Leaves turn scar¬ 
let in Fall. Makes an interesting 
specimen. Fine for massing. Grows 
6 to 8 ft. 
FORSYTHIA spectabilis 
Most spectacular and most beautiful 
of all Forsythias. A medium, upright 
grower. Stems completely covered with 
masses of large, deep yellow blossoms be¬ 
fore the foliage appears. A most valu¬ 
able new Shrub. See color illustration 
on page 21. 
Hawthorn 
HIGHBUSH CRANBERRY 
8 to 10 feet tall. A magnificent shrub, 
owing to its good foliage, and the clusters 
of white, showy flower heads in early Sum¬ 
mer, which are followed by scarlet berries 
in the Fall. This shrub is perfectly hardy 
and is in general favor for landscape work. 
GOLDENBELL (Forsythia) 
Arching Forsythia (Forsythia inter¬ 
media). Short leaved, earliest bloom¬ 
ing, broadest bushing; the long canes 
drooping so as to make a solid bank of 
brilliant green foliage. The best gen¬ 
eral purpose type. 
Fortune Forsythia (Forsythia for- 
tunei). Vigorous, upright, arched 
branches with drooping yellow flowers 
often with twisted petals appearing in 
Spring before the leaves. 8 to 10 ft. 
Golden Bell (Forsythia viridissima). 
This is often called Greenstemmed 
Golden Bell. 6 to 8 ft. Yellow. April. 
This is one of the best of the Golden 
Bells. The flowers appear before the 
leaves and the plant makes a great 
show early in the Spring. 
Weeping Forsythia (Forsythia sus- 
pensa). Native of China, long, grace¬ 
ful arched branches with dark green, 
lustrous leaves, persisting until frost. 
Great yellow flowers in profusion cre¬ 
ating elaborate displays. 6 to 8 ft. tall. 
The golden bells blossom before the 
leaves appear. They are joyful har¬ 
bingers of Spring.
