Althaea frutex Callicarpa Americana fructo=albo 
(ROSE OF SHARON) 
These are among our most desirable flowering 
shrubs, and deserve to be more extensively cultivated, 
as they produce their flowers in the greatest profusion 
during three months. The new European varieties 
lately introduced are nearly all of dwarf growth, and 
their flowers are greatly superior to the old sorts. 
Their colors include white, pink, purple, blue, red, 
violet, mottled. Double and single. Grafted plants, 
25 cts. ; $2 for 10. 
Berberis Thunbergii 
(BARBERRY) 
A dwarf Japanese variety; small foliage, changing 
to red in fall. Valuable as an ornamental hedge. 
This is a white-fruited form of the beautiful native 
shrub known as French Mulberry. The berries are 
produced in clusters, and are exceedingly showy from 
Sept, until Dec. 25 cts.

Citrus trifoliata 
(HARDY LEMON)

flowering plant, few are more desirable. The plant

thorny; foliage trifoliate, retained quite late, but here 
not an evergreen. Flowers appear in great profusion 
early in spring, and a second and third crop is pro¬ 
duced during summer. The bright golden fruit is 
retained during winter, which makes a showy garden 
feature. A grand hedge plant.

pleasant ordor when bruised ; flowers pure white, like 
a miniature double rose; very fragrant; stems die 
back during winter. Blooms from July until frost.
