New Hardy Snow-White Shrub 
HYDRANGEA ARBORESCENS 
GFxANDIFLOKA. 
A variety of 71. arborescens, recently discovered. 
The heads of flowers are in shape like 71. hortensis; 
they are snowy white. It is a true shrub, begins to 
bloom in early summer and continues into the fall, so that 
it is practically ever-blooming. After H. paniculaia grandijlora 
has lost its color this variety is still fresh, eventually turning to a light 
green and then brown. It is a graceful shrub and is destined to achieve 
the widest popularity. It attains a height of 6 feet and the same width 
and is literally loaded with its grand panicles of large snowy white 
flowers, one of the grandest sights imaginable. Price, strong two-year 
old plants, 2 to 3 ft. high, 50c. each, $5.00 per doz. 
HYDRANGEA PANICULATA GRANDIFLORA 
This is the most popular hardy shrub in cultivation. It attains a 
height of 4 to 6 feet; perfectly hardy in all parts of the country. The 
flowers are white when first open, but change to pink and russet brown. 
They are borne in immense pyramidal panicles, nearly a foot in length, 
the weight of the flowers bending the branches. It commences flow¬ 
ering in August and continues in bloom the rest of the season, the 
flowers drying on the bushes. Very effective when planted in masses 
or with a background of other shrubs. {See cut.) Price, strong 
plants, 2\ to 3 feet high, 25c. each, $2.50 per doz., $18.00 per 100. 
Tree Hydrangea. This is the same variety as the foregoing only 
grown as “ Standards,” that is there is a bare stem about 4 feet high. 
At the top is a fine head from which the flowers are produced. As 
single specimens on a lawn or in shrub borders this style is very 
effective. Price, 60c. each S6.00 per doz.
