OUR SPECIALTIES FOR 1938 
A Selection of New and Unusual Plants 
♦ 
KELSEY PYGMY DOGWOOD 
(Cornus stolonifera var. kelseyi) 
A 1938 Introduction 
This new, very dwarf variety of the Red-Osier Dogwood originated at Kelsey-High- 
lands Nursery several years ago. It has been carefully tested and we are happy to offer 
it to the public as an entirely different and valuable addition to our extensive list of 
ornamental plants. It has the characteristic dark red twigs of the Red-Osier Dogwood, but 
is a true pygmy, growing not over 18 inches tall, and distinguished by its much-branched 
compact habit of growth. Splendid for low hedges, borders, rock gardens and in any 
location where a low shrub is desirable. Will do well in full sun or moderate shade. 
Price.$1.00 each, 
PRIMROSE FORSYTHIA 
(Forsythia intermedia primulina) 
No garden is complete without a Forsythia. This 
species is one of the choicest. In Spring the stout 
branches are hidden by a profusion of primrose- 
yellow flowers. Fine as a specimen or for hedges. 
2-3 ft., $.80 each, $7.20 per 10, $64.00 per 100. 
DRAGON SPRUCE 
(Picea asperata) 
Most vigorous of the Chinese spruces, this dense 
broadly pyramidal tree was introduced by the Arn¬ 
old Arboretum in 1910. Rare in cultivation, it has 
proven a distinct addition to our ornamental ever¬ 
greens, and will be increasingly in demand as a 
specimen. 
12-18 in., $2.00 each, $25.50 per 10. 
18-24 in., 3.25 each, 29.25 per 10. 
WILSON SPRUCE 
(Picea wilsoni) 
Introduced by the late “Chinese” Wilson, this 
very rare spruce is notable for its bright green foli¬ 
age and handsome pyramidal form. Our supply is 
limited. 
12-18 in., $3.00 each, $27.00 per 10. 
$9.00 per 10, $80.00 per 100 
RHODODENDRON, SMIRNOYI HYBRIDS 
We present here the result of crossing the SMIR- 
NOW RHODODENDRON with various Rhodo¬ 
dendron Hybrids. The seedlings vary in character 
of foliage and flower, but are all distinguished by 
the great beauty of flower form and size. They 
vary in color from pale pink to bright red. 
12-18 in., $2.25 each, $20.25 per 10. 
18-24 in., 3.50 each, 31.50 per 10. 
2-2 1 / 4 ft., 5.00 each, 45.00 per 10. 
WHITE CHINESE INDIGO 
(Indigofera decora alba) 
A rare oriental species of unusual beauty, bearing 
large snow-white pea-shaped flowers among bright 
green leaves. 
Strong Plants, $2.50 each, $22.50 per 10 
MOUNTAIN CRANBERRY 
(Vaccinium vitis-idaea minor) 
Native in our New England mountains, this splen¬ 
did prostrate evergreen groundcover is seldom 
offered. The small flowers are white or pink, and 
are followed by brilliant red berries in the Fall. A 
real treasure for the rock garden, it will stand 
fullest exposure. 
2-4 in., Pot Grown, $.75 each, $6.75 per 10.
