this an ideal quick background, at seashore or inland.

SAMBUCUS pubens. 10'-12' Scarlet Elder 
One of the earliest shrubs to display its brilliant scarlet 
berries in great bunches. For wild gardens, large bor¬ 
ders or rocky bank, it is ideal.

SCHIZOPHRAGMA hydrangeoides. 25'-30* Hydrangea Vine 
For permanence this self-clinging vine is most desirable. 
The round leaves are about four inches across and shingle 
a wall beautifully. Quite similar to the climbing Hydran¬ 
gea this can be identified by the single petaled bracts 
among the more numerous true flowers. 
4" Pots. 1.50 
SCIADOPITYS verticillata. 20'-25' Umbrella Pine 
EVERGREEN. So called because the thick four inch leaves 
are arranged in whorls similar to the ribs of an umbrella. 
These dark green glossy needles handsomely clothe the 
branches which make a dense pyramidal head. Growing 
very slowly it can be safely used in low plantings. 
Drainage is essential for this unique beautiful conifer. 
7 to 8 ft. B. & B. 30.00 
SOPHORA japonica. 60'-70' Chinese Scholar Tree 
Improves with age as the tortuous branches assume in¬ 
teresting shapes, and the crop of greenish yellow pea¬ 
shaped flowers increases. Really a fine tree that should 
be used for avenue or specimen purposes. Easily satis¬ 
fied as to soil.
