Philadelphus, Virginal. Virginal Mock Orange. 7 to 9 feet. 
The finest of all the Mock Oranges. While it produces 
flowers intermittently throughout the growing season, its 
great value lies in its magnificent spring d splay. The pure 
white, fragrant flowers are amazingly large, often 2 inches 
across, are semi-double, and borne in such profusion that 
the branches are weighted down. The plant is an erect 
and vigorous grower. No one should be without this de¬ 
lightful shrub—the best of the Mock Oranges.
