Hydrangea, Ever blooming 
flmarirnn Snowball Hydrangea. 
American Reaches a height of 5 ft. 
and spreads out over 5 to 6 ft. in a 
pretty bush form. Flowers of dazzling 
white begin to appear in June, and under 
normal conditions this Hydrangea will 
bloom repeatedly during summer and 
early fall. In dry weather watering of 
Hydrangeas should never be neglected, 
and for the winter the best protection you 
can give Hydrangeas, in fact any shrub, 
is a heavy soaking of the ground before 
it freezes up. This Hydrangea does best 
in partial shade. It combines most ef¬ 
fectively if Spirea Anthony Waterer (also 
an everbloomer) is used as a foreground, 
this Spirea being proportionately lower 
in growth and blooming red against the 
pure white of the Hydrangea.

Hydrangea P a n i c u 1 a t a 
See photo below of 
Larandulora this Hydrangea as it 
grows normally. It reaches a height of 
5 feet. The blossoms of this Hydrangea 
are of unusually large size; when they 
first appear in August they are of a 
pure white color; they last until middle 
to end of September, and as they remain 
on the bush they gradually turn to a pink 
and keep this color until frost in the fall. 
Partly shady places, and occasional wa¬ 
tering to keep the, ground from getting 
too dry are of great benefit to all Hy¬ 
drangeas, In groups or as single speci¬ 
mens you will like Hydrangeas.
