XANTHOCERAS sorbifolia. 10' Chinese Buckeye 
Everything about this forgotten shrub is handsome and 
interesting yet after seventy years it is practically un¬ 
known! The broad round bush is generally made up 
of a few main branches, well divided into smaller lat¬ 
erals which bear the compound dark green glossy foliage. 
During the latter part of May and early June the striking 
upright clusters of white flowers, resembling a glorified 
penstemon, appear. Only those at the top of these nine 
inch clusters are 
fertile so that the 
brown horse chestnut 
like seeds are sparingly produced. 
Prefers sun.

Adam's Needle 
EVERGREEN. Much abused, poorly used, but withal a 
handsome exotic when the six foot spikes of creamy nod¬ 
ding bell flowers force attention in July. Try it in masses 
among dry rocky outcroppings, or in the wide border.

ZANTHORHIZA apiifolia. 2'-2 x /2' Yellow Root 
For under planting with leggy shrubs no better selection 
could be made. Either in sun or shade, moist or dry places 
it will quickly spread to form a light ground cover and 
open its brownish purple flowers. Dislikes lime.
