locations. It is quite hardy, produces small white or pinkish flowers in July and Au¬ 
gust, and these are succeeded by abundant white berries that last well into the winter.

immense bloomer, with pure snow-white flowers, borne in plume-shaped clusters all 
over the plant. Makes an attractive hedge. Most popular hardy Spirea. (See cut.) 
Anthony Waterer. The perpetual-blooming Red Spirea. Makes nice, shapely bushes 
2 to 3 feet high; begins to bear its large, flat clusters of rich, rosy red flowers almost as 
soon as planted and continues blooming at short intervals all through the summer and 
fall. Makes fine single specimens. 
Bridal Wreath Spirea (S. prunifolia). Flowers white and double like little roses, borne 
in great profusion the whole length of the branches; blooms early in spring. 
Blue Spirea ( Caryopteris Mastacanthus , or Verbena Shrub). This is the finest blue¬ 
flowering shrub we have; makes neat, compact bushes, 18 inches to 2 feet high;
