blossoms are borne in beautiful sprays, the individual flowers, however, are of 
brilliant crimson color, a beautiful shade. Does well in the shade and here in

consisting of leaves or straw. South of here no protection is necessary. 12-18 inch

The New Fragrant Snowball 
Viburnum Carlesi. This snowball makes a well shaped bush, not as tall 
as the common snowballs, however it branches out nicely. The foliage is a 
pretty gray-green in color. When the buds first appear they are of a showy 
rosy-pink color, and they stand in small clusters. The blossoms first open 
in a color of cream with a pink shading, and as the blossoms reach the full 
blooming stage they are of a creamy-white color. Since this shrub has been 
introduced it has sometimes been called “Pink Fragrant Snowball.” I am, 
therefore, giving you this full account of the coloring of the blossoms. The 
fragrance of this snowball is best described by calling it a most pleasing 
perfume that resembles the odor of the Gardenia. In a partly shaded place, 
with plenty of watering during dry weather, this shrub will give you good 
results and give you plenty of reasons to be proud of it. 12-18 inch plants. 
75c each, postpaid.

Rex-} WnvViorrv (Symphoricarpus Vulgaris) 3 to 5 
nea VV aXDerry ft _ tall. A native of Nebraska, 
and often called “Indian-Berry.” I recommend it on 
account of its healthy growth, extreme hardiness, and 
drought-resisting qualities. Can be planted for hedges. 
The red berries hang on almost all through the winter.

liage, growing to a height of 8 ft. This picture shows 
you the attractive design of the leaves and branches, 
which turn to a most showy pinkish red color in the fall. 
This Sumac is perfectly hardy in the Middle West, and 
most anywhere in the North! and is one of the finest 
foliage shrubs known. 12-18 inch plants, 25c each; 3 for 
60c. 2-3 ft. nice shrubs, 45c each; 3 for $1.20; postpaid. 
OlrJ FrrctVii rmcx-1 ^nrvwl-w-fll (Viburnum Opulus Sterile) 
v^ia rasnionea onowoaii Grows 10 to 12 ft. tail This is 
the old garden favorite. In order to appreciate this shrub one must 
see a snowball bush in the corner of some old garden where it can 
give testimony of its great hardiness, its long life, pretty shape and 
wealth of flowers which appear in May. For the best results 1 
recommend a shady or partly shaded place for this shrub, and plenty 
of moisture. It is an upright grower, clean and healthy. 12-18 inch 
plants, 32c each; 10 for $2.90. 2-3 ft. nice shrubs, 55c each; 3 for $1.50:

■ ■= PLANTING INSTRUCTIONS -. = 
(continued from page 26) 
All pruning or shearing that is to change or improve the shape of a flowering shrub should be done during the growing season. 
Right after blooming is the best time. For example, if you happen to have a Spirea bush that hangs over a little too far, and Is 
to be pruned back you had best do that in June when the blossoms fade. In that way the shrub bloomed well, and after the 
shearing or pruning in June, it will still make a new growth which will bloom the following spring. If you would have pruned 
the shrub early in the spring you would have cut off all the branches that produce the blossoms. Summarily, if you want to 
prune or shear a flowering shrub without reducing its chances to bloom, shear or prune right after it has bloomed.
