Large-Fruited Blueberries 
Hydrangea Opuloides “Blue Bird” 
CULTIVATED LARGE FRUITED BLUEBERRIES 
The supreme achievement of skilled horticulturists who have worked 
for years to improve our most luscious native fruit 
The question invariably asked by those whose interest has been aroused 
is "Are these new Blueberries hard to grow?" The answer instantly and truth¬ 
fully given is "No; they are not in the least hard to grow." In bloom they 
are attractive, and in fall the green foliage turns into beautiful shades of 
red and crimson. 
Blueberries are acid-soil plants. This acid condition is easily brought about 
by simple preparation of the soil—with woods soil, oak leaves, peat or alum¬ 
inum sulphate. 
The new, named varieties of cultivated Blueberries are not self-fertile. 
Consequently, a bush grown by itself will not bear fruit, but where six or 
more plants of different varieties are grown in close proximity, perfect 
fertilization of the blossoms takes place, and abundant crops of huge, 
luscious berries result. ... 
Consequently our Blueberries are sold in units of 6 plants (mixed varieties) 
or in blocks of 24 plants or more (mixed varieties). Each plant bears a care¬ 
fully written name tag. Orders tor single plants will positively not be accepted 
for reasons noted above. 
2-year size, $7.50 per unit of 6 plants, 24 plants or oyer, $1.10 per 
plant. All plants are sent with ball of earth. Cultural hints with each 
order. 
CORNUS - Dogwood 
Florida rubra (Pink Dogwood) Each $4.00, Doz. $40.00 
There are no treees or shrubs which possess a larger measure of attrac¬ 
tiveness throughout the whole year. The rare pink Dogwood is similar 
in all respects to the common variety except that the flowers are a 
beautiful shade of pink. It is very beautiful and a good specimen in full 
bloom is a magnificent sight in the spring garden. Does well in shade. 
We offer plants full of buds, about 4 to 5 feet tall. 
Florida flora plena (Double White Dogwood) Each $3.t5, Doz. $37.50 
The flowers of this Dogwood are double white, not unlike the Gardenia, 
and just as freely produced as the common single Dogwood. This rare 
form is not well known and never fails to interest. The plants we offer 
will bloom the first year and are about 3 to 4 feet high. 
COTONEASTER - Rock Spray 
*Horizontalis Fine 6-inch pot plants. Each $1.00, Doz. $10.00 
(Prostrate or Rock Cotoneaster.) A low-growing shrub with almost hori¬ 
zontal branches covered with shiny dark green leaves. The fruit, which 
hangs on until spring, is bright red, giving the plant a wonderful appear¬ 
ance in the fall and winter. It is a most desirable plant for rock garden 
in front of shrubbery or at the base of steps near the front door. 
HYDRANGEA 
Opuloides, Blue Bird Each $1.50, Doz. $lo.00 
On Cape Cod, Massachusetts, in a small, well-kept garden surrounding a 
fine old home which once belonged to a clipper ship captain, one of us 
observed a magnificent specimen of the blue Hydrangea Opuloides. 
The coloring is a deep and intense blue never observed in the tender 
Hortensis varieties, now extensively in use by florists and commonly seen 
in gardens. Upon request the owner permitted us to take some cuttings 
of this beautiful plant which he told us his father had brought from 
China. We have multiplied these cuttings and can now offer a fine lot 
of flowering plants. We recommend slight protection in the colder 
section of the country. Grow in sun or light shade. Allow two feet 
square for each plant. Do not use lime, it seriously affects the coloring, 
in fact on alkaline soils we advise mixing 1 pound aluminum sulphate to 
10 square feet making 3 or 4 applications as needed with the soil in 
order to bring out the marvelous blue color to best advantage. Here is 
a beautiful flowering shrub you will enjoy possessing. 
HYPERICUM 
*Calycinum Three $1.40, Doz. $4.00, 100 $2o.00 
Similar to Moserianum, except that it makes underground runners, which, 
when they come up, produce a beautiful carpet of green covered with 
large, yellow blossoms. Ground cover; hardiest of all; 20 inches. 
Henryi Three $1.50, Doz. $4.50, 100 $30.00 
The same as Moserianum, though slightly more upright. A lovely little 
shrub. 
:I; Moserianum Three $1.50, Doz. $4.50, 100 $30.00 
A most desirable border shrub about 20 inches high, of free and graceful 
habit, producing long, slender stems, drooping, apparently from the 
weight of the flowers and buds, although the flowers face so none of 
their beauty is lost. Color a rich golden yellow, and bloom continuously 
the entire season.
