Billiardi. Numerous dense upright terminal panicles of rich, 
lilac-pink, fuzzy flowers from July on. 
Opulifolia. Growth upright, attaining up to 8 feet, although the 
white heavy flower umbels in June make the branches droop; 
old flower heads turn to dark red, and make a 
striking variety of colors at different stages of 
maturity. 
Opulifolia Aurea. (Golden Spirea). Of similar 
habit to above, with young foliage of bright 
yellow changing to golden bronze in the fall. The 
contrasting red fruit is very pleasing.

Thunbergfi. Forms a dense feathery bush, 3 to 5 
feet high ; the foliage, which is a light yellowish 
green, changes in autumn to bright red and 
orange. White clustered flowers in early spring. 
IYj to 2 feet, 40c each; 6 for $2.10. 
Trichocarpa (Korean Spirea). A hand- 
some new introduction 
favoring Van Houtte in character, but 
with interesting differences. The flowers 
are larger than Van Houtte, with a dis¬ 
tinct eye, in dome-shaped clusters. These 
appear a short space following the older 
Bridal Wreath, and thus prolong the 
showiness of this type. Thrifty and hardy.

arching, slender branches, fine twigs and 
“maidenhair” foliage may be left un¬ 
pruned. A fountain of white in May.
