Special Offer of Ornamental Flowering Shrubs

fifty cents each for easily grown shrubs there is not much encouragement to plant them freely. We have made arrangements by which we 
can supply our customers with well-grown shrubs in the best varieties at the extremely low prices quoted below, but in every instance the 
selection of varieties must be left to us; however, in ordering, if it is stated that certain shrubs are not wanted they will not be* sent. We 
guarantee these shrubs to be satisfactory in both quality and variety.

Low Prices for Hydrangeas 
SHIPPED FROM STATION NEAR PITTSBURG 
Prices good until stock is exhausted. Fall or spring deliv¬ 
ery. No more popular plant or shrub has ever been sent out 
than Hydrangea paniculata grandiflora , and we take great 
pleasure in offering our customers a large stock of splendid 
vigorous plants at such extremely low prices that, it will enable 
them to plant this effective shrub in quantity. People who 
have only seen this Hydrangea grown singly as specimens 
have no conception of how beautiful and effective it is when 
planted in masses. They are planted in this way at Newport, 
It. I., which is famous for its fine gardens, and almost as 
famous for its Hydrangeas. These Hydrangeas can be planted 
in connection with other shrubbery or in isolated beds, in the 
same manner as cannas, caladiums or other strong-growing 
bedding plants. They are perfectly hardy, and once planted 
they are a permanent addition to the lawn or garden. When 
grown in beds or groups they should be planted about 2 feet 
apart in very rich soil, which should be liberally enriched 
annually with rotten stable manure, and in the early spring, 
before they commence to grow, cut back so as to leave only 2 
or 3 inches of the new growth of the previous season; if ex¬ 
tremely large flowers are desired, cut out some of the weakest 
shoots after growth has commenced. Treated in this manner 
they will produce enormous panicles of flowers, and the beds 
will be a solid mass of bloom. They bloom profusely the same 
season planted. Try them. You will find them more than 
satisfactory.
