SYRINGA. LlLAC. 
Syringa Villosa. 
PER SIC A. Persian Lilac.—A very graceful shrub 
with slender branches that produce pretty panicles of 
light purple flowers in great profusion. 2 to 3 feet, 
each, 25c. 
VILLOSA. —A distinct and very valuable species from 
Japan. Has beautiful foliage that never mildews. It 
is more dwarf and compact in habit than other Lilacs; 
has stout branches and flowers much later. Its panicles 
of deliciously fragrant flowers are true Lilac in bud and 
silvery rose when expanded. Its large heart-shaped 
leaves are as fresh and cheerful in color as those of the 
White Fringe. 2 to 3 feet, each, 35c. 
VULGARIS. Purple Lilac. —The well known and popu¬ 
lar Lilac; a large, strong growing, upright shrub, bearing 
clusters of richly fragrant, pure lilac flowers early in 
spring. An old fashioned shrub that should be in every 
garden. 2 to 3 feet, each, 20c. 
VULGARIS ALBA. White Lilac.—A variety of the 
above, producing freely large panicles of white, fragrant 
flowers. 2 to 3 feet, each, 25c. 
FRENCH LILACS. 
The newer French Lilacs are marvels of beauty and 
elegance; so far superior to the older forms of S. vulgaris 
that but a faint idea of their worth can be given in print 
—they must be seen to be appreciated. The list is long 
and I have selected from it six of the best and most 
widely different, namely: 
CHAS. DIX.—Large panicles of single blue flowers. 
MARIE LEGRAYE.—Large panicles of single white flow¬ 
ers; the finest white Lilac. 
MILE. LEMOINE.—Double white flowers; superb. 
PRES. CARNOT.—Double flowers; lilac, with white mark¬ 
ings at center. 
PRES. GREVY.—Fine blue; flowers very large and very 
double; exceedingly fine. 
SOUV. DE L. SPATII.—Single; flowers and panicles very 
large, dark, purplish-red; splendid. 
Strong plants, 2 feet (except as noted), each, 35c. 
Standard Lilacs.— Strong handsome heads on 4 to 5 
foot stems, each, 50c. 
TAMARIX. 
INDICA. Last Indian Tamarisk. —Of strong, upright, 
grotesque habit with airy, slender branches, small feathery 
leaves and a profusion of small rosy-pink flowers, dur¬ 
ing summer and autumn. 2 to 3 feet, each, 20c. 
WEIGELA (Diervilla). 
Strong growing shrubs of spreading habit. Especially 
valuable for grouping. 
CANDIDA.—Pure white flowers of large size. Blooms 
all summer. 
EVA RATIIKE.—Very distinct in color of flower from 
other Weigelas, a remarkably free bloomer and a vigor¬ 
ous, erect grower. The flowers are of a rich, deep crim¬ 
son, and are produced in great abundance, continuously 
throughout the summer. 
ROSEA.—'Targe growth and rather coarse, deep pink or 
magenta flowers in great masses, during June. 
ROSEA NANA VARIEGATA.— Variegated-leaved Weigela. 
A grand shrub of rather dwarf open habit and beautiful 
foliage, deeply margined with clear, creamy-white, dis¬ 
tinctly defined. The foliage stands the sun well and is 
very showy. Altogether it is one of the finest of all 
variegated shrubs. In June it bears handsome, light pink 
flowers very profusely. 
Strong plants, 2 to 3 feet, each, 25c. 
Jerseys Hedge Trimmer 
A new power primer for pruning Privet Hedges 
Ten days work done in one 
The Jersey Hedge Trimmer turns the hard work of pruning hedges with 
shears, to play. Any good sized boy can operate it; trimming ten times as much hedge 
in an hour as a skilled workman can with a pair of hedge shears, and do it better- 
The Jersey Hedge Trimmer completely removes the only objection to growing 
Privet Pledges—the bother and expense of keeping them properly pruned. 
Way back in the early seventies, I introduced the California Privet as a hedge 
plant. (It is now grown by the millions). I regard it as a great honor, now in 1912, to 
be able to offer the Jersey Hedge Trimmer to keep Privet Hedges properly pruned, with¬ 
out skilled labor and at slight cost.
