real green. The blossoms are produced 
abundantly and almost continuously from 
early Spring until freezing. The bush is 
a low, vigorous grower, about two feet 
high, and not very thorny. If you want 
something different be sure to try this 
one. 1 yr. 60c — 2 yr. $1.25

Rose of remarkable strength and vigorous 
growth — one plant will produce more 
good roses in a year than any other Tea

nothing but killing it outright will check

THE ROSE TREE OF CHINA (Prunus Triloba) is the most beautiful and showy of all 
small trees. It begins to bloom before the leaves appear in the spring, being literally 
covered with very double rose-like pink flowers. As an ornament from early spring 
until late fall, it has few equals. This symmetrically formed, graceful little tree grows 
usually to a height of but 8 feet, and is attractive as a specimen or when planted in 
groups of shrub border. It is hardy and easily grown, and no lawn is so small that room 
cannot be found for at least one of these wonderful trees. Many who have seen it 
declare it to be the most beautiful tree they have ever seen. The rose-like blossoms 
make fine cut flow'ers.
