ONCE SEEN—ALWAYS ADMIRED AND DESIRED 
They Aroused Much Admiration In Our Southern Garden at the 
Century of Progress in Chicago 
Ahelia Grandiflora 
(Bush Arbutus) 
Unexcelled for foundation plantings around the house, for 
specimens about the lawn, or for corner group plantings. Rich, 
glossy green foliage remaining the greater part of the year 
makes them especially desirable. The greatest thrill and joy 
comes in June when the whole bush becomes a snow mound of 
dainty white blooms which remain until frost. Grow to a height 
of 4 feet and never become coarse or woody. As hardy as 
California Privet. Extremely severe winters may freeze back 
the bloom buds but will not kill the plant as they will sprout 
right up again from the roots and bloom the following year. 
2-yr., heavy roofed, 18- fo 24-inch shrubs, only 50c each; 
3 for $1.25, postpaid. 
Nandina 
(Domestica) 
A semi-evergreen having up¬ 
right branches resembling reeds. 
Each branch is topped by 
spreading foliage of light, clear 
green. The very new growth is 
tinted pink, thus making a 
pleasing color contrast at all 
times. In August the tops are 
a mass of white flowers which 
are followed by great masses of 
flaming red berries which re¬ 
main throughout the winter. 
The foliage colors exquisitely in fall. They have proven hardy 
with us here in northern Indiana. Late spring freezes some¬ 
times injure the bloom buds but not the plant. Nice stocks, 
heavy rooted, 12- to 18-inch, 50c each; 3 for $1.25, postpaid. 
Crape Myrtle 
One of the showiest and most beloved by all. Every bush is 
a glinting mound of pink blooms, so shimmering, so colorful, so 
altogether lovely that it cannot help but inspire a feeling of 
awe when a full-grown specimen is seen. Foliage is attractive 
and blends well with any planting. North of the Ohio River the 
bloom buds sometimes freeze back. Does not kill the plant but 
we miss a year of its bloom. Heavy rooted, 18- to 24-inch 
plants, 50c each; 3 for $1.25, postpaid.
