Gurney's Large Double Flowering 
• ALMOND 
Pink and white varieties. A very beautiful and 
graceful shrub of medium height. It is covered 
with very double pink or white flowers in early 
Spring before other shrubs have budded and is 
exceedingly attractive. It is hardy, and is becom¬ 
ing more popular each year. Either color. 2-3 ft., 
40c ea.; 3 for $1.10; 5 for $1.60. 
BARBERRY 
• THUNBERGI—GREEN LEAF 
A pretty dwarf species that will fit into almost 
any planting and will grow in most any place. 
Handsome foliage of bright green oval shaped 
leaves which turn to the most brilliant shades of 
coppery red and orange in autumn and which 
remain on until late fall. The slender, graceful 
little branches are lined with small scarlet 
berries which hang until well into winter and 
help give life to the shrubbery border, especially 
when there is snow* on the ground. Used for 
foundation and group plantings and hedges. 
Heavy—12-18-in., 20c Each; 4 for 70c; 
6 for 90c; 10 for $1.40; 50 for $6.00.

• NEW RED LEAVED BARBERRY 
An exact reproduction of Thunbergi in every 
way—habit, leaf-formation and fruiting, but— 
whereas the original is a deep green from spring 
until fall, this variety starts off in its first foliage 
a warm bronzy red; the heat of summer intensify¬ 
ing its red brilliancy; autumn adding other tints 
to its richness. The abundant scarlet berries 
persist throughout winter along the spiny twigs. 
A sunny exposure is necessary to bring out and 
retain its full red color.
