Introducing 1937 Novelties 
ultra'modern trees and plants 
The 
PEACH COT 
Combination 
Apricot and Peach 
An entirely new fruit, smooth like the fruit 
of the Russian Apricot. Large, the size of 
budded peaches. The flavor is a most extra¬ 
ordinary blend of the finest of the peach 
qualities, and the richness of the apricot. 
The tree originated in Colorado, and is hardy 
in the Middle West. It came through the 
winter of 1935-1936 in our nursery here with¬ 
out injury, and this was the coldest winter 
in over 40 years. For truly the latest intro¬ 
duction in the fruit line try this tree. 2-4 
ft. trees, 90c each, postpaid. 4-6 ft. trees, 
$ 1.20 each.

HANSEN’S 
BUSH 
CHERRY 
The Fruit 
The Cherry is of the type of 
the Sand Cherry, but it is 
larger, in fact it is of the, size of the native 
plum with a very small pit, and the quality 
is very good for preserves. Birds are very 
fond of this fruit, and are attracted by the 
shrub. 
TVwa TtncVi Cut back to within a few 
1116 IJUisIl inches from the ground right 
after planting. It will bush out well with its 
new growth, its leaves are very showy all 
through the summer, and the shrub is most 
hardy both in winter and summer, resisting 
cold as well as drought as few other shrubs. 
You can plant it along lot lines, for founda¬ 
tion plantings or for a low grower along the 
edge of your windbreak. Grows to a height 
of 5 to 6 feet. 
WVirrt it its The lar g' est of all berries known: 60 to 80 berries 
VVIlUl 11 la fin a pint basket, while of Blackberries it would 
take 200 berries or more. Berries iy 2 to 2 inches long and 1-inch 
thick are not unusual. The plant is a cross between Blackberries, 
Raspberries and Loganberries, and promises to be the greatest 
berry fruit of the future for home u-se and for market. 
T4«i*r it io mourn It is very hardy, stood 17 degrees below 
1 J.UW 11 lo yiUWH zero without damage. The canes can be 
tied to stakes or to wires same as most other berry varieties. 
Good, rich garden soil, or where the soil is rather light a heavy 
application of well rotted barn manure will produce enormous 
crops. Easiest culture, I urge all those of my customers who are 
interested in berry growing to try a few of the new Boysenberry.

new flowering shrubs 
PINK SNOWBALL 
When the buds of this beautiful bush first appear they are of_a 
showy, rosy-pink color, standing in small clusters. From these 
pink blossom-buds the shrub derives its name, and also from the 
fact that the blossoms when fully open possess a pleasing fragrance 
much like that of the Gardenia. The open blossoms change to a 
creamy white color with light pink shadings. Of all the new 
shrubs introduced in the last decade this shrub takes first place. 
I have nice plants, 12-18 inch size, price 75c each, postpaid. 
WINTERBERRY 
HARDY HOLLY 
The only shrub of the “Holly” type that is hardy in the Middle 
West. With its pretty red berries which cling to the branches 
through the winter, it is a very attractive shrub during the winter. 
Wherever you wish to grow an unusual shrub, the Hardy Holly, 
and for a shady place the Pink Fragrant Snowball will please you. 
The Hardy Holly does not grow very fast, but eventually will reach 
a height of 10 feet. I have nice plants of this shrub, 12 to 18 inches 
in size, for 50c each; postpaid. 
The Flower Early in the spring when the Hansen’s Bush Cherry blooms it is entirely covered with the pretty 
little white flowers, the bush at that time is a show piece, the twigs make nice bouquets. At blooming time it is a 
flowering shrub of first class. 
Where to plant it Wherever a shrub must be absolutely hardy, wherever you want a shrub that serves a dual 
purpose blooming and fruiting. The bushes produce the blue fruits in such large numbers you will never need them all 
for your canning, let the birds have the rest. While the fruit ripens the bushes seem to be blue, owing to the fact 
that the fruit hangs so thickly on the branches, bending them over in arch forms. 
Price In order to enable frequent planting of the New Hansen’s Bush Cherry I am offering the plants at special 
low prices: 3 for 25c; 10 for 65c; 25 for $1.10; 100 for $3.80; postpaid.
