Cranberry Bush; Viburnum opulus 
The parent of the Common Snowball, and like it in habit 
of growth, but the white flowers are in flat clusters in May. 
The center flowers, which produce the berries, are small, with 
an outer ring of showy flowers like the individual flowers of 
the Snowball. The bright scarlet, cranberry-like fruits color in 
late July or early August, remaining well into winter when not 
easten by the birds. Endures partial shade; attains 8 to 12 ft.; 
prune, if necessary, after blooming.

Crape Myrtle; Lagerstroemia indica 
Its clusters of flowers with petals crinkled like crape are 
borne in profusion throughout latter summer. As important in 
the south as Lilacs in the north. It may be grown here if 
mounded with soil in winter, the same as everblooming roses. 
If the top winter injures, cut it back to sound wood and the 
new growth will bloom the same summer. 
In this part of the country Crape Myrtle is rather difficult to 
transplant. Often it remains alive but does not break into 
growth for a long time. Soil banked about it, a flower pot or 
pail inverted over the plant, often causes more rapid budding, 
due to moisture about the tops. In the nursery we have little 
trouble with Crape Myrtle, due to usual nursery care, but can¬ 
not assure growth- Pink and Watermelon Red,

Currant, Golden; Clove Bush; Ribes odoratum 
An old time favorite for its dove-like fragrance. In latter 
April, after Forsythias have finished blooming, it is almost cov¬ 
ered with clusters of small tubular golden flowers, as the leaves 
are unfolding. Attains a height of 4 to 5 ft.; succeeds in sun 
or partial shade; prune after blooming.

Desmodium penduliflorum; Lespedeza formosa 
In late August and September, when few other shrubs are 
blooming, this one is very showy, its branches somewhat arched 
with their load of dooping clusters of rosy-purple flowers near¬ 
ly Vz in. long, like small peas. Its delicate textured foliage 
consists of 3 leaflets. Grows 3 to 4 ft. high. In this section 
usually freezes back in winter and should be pruned to the 
ground each spring. It will bloom that same year.

Dogwood, Bailey’s; Cornus Baileyi 
After the leaves have fallen this shrub lights up the shrub¬ 
bery border with its bright red branches, more intense with the 
approach of winter. Flat clusters of small fuzzy, creamy- 
white flowers in spring; grows 6 to 10 ft. high. Pruning to 
the ground early each spring will reduce the height and give 
more young branches which are of better color. Succeeds in 
well drained soil, in sun or partial shade.

of yellow before the leaves; scarlet berries % in. long, some¬ 
what resermbling small plums, in latter summer.

One of the most attractive and perhaps the most dwarf Deut¬ 
zia. A dense bushy plant about 3 ft. high, with slender, often 
arching branches; leaves light green 1 to 2 in. long; covered in 
early May with single pure white 5-petaled starry flowers, al¬ 
most as dainty as Lily-of-the-Valley, in graceful nodding clus¬ 
ters; buds bead-like. Prune part of the old wood out each 
spring, directly after blooming. Succeeds with sun half the day. 
15 to 18 inches_.40 each; 3.50 per 10 
Elder, Golden; Sambucus canadensis aurea 
Small white flowers in large flat clusters in late May and 
June, followed by black berries, but grown for its intense yel¬ 
low leaves, the color well retained during summer if planted in 
full sun and kept growing freely. Should be pruned back of¬ 
ten in early spring to maintain a dense growth of new wood.

Deutzia Lemoine 
Beautiful snow-white 5-petaled starry flowers in broad or 
somewhat cone-shaped clusters in early May. Compact habit, 
decidedly upright and a little taller than gracilis, reaching about

Euonymus alata; Winged Euonymus 
An unusual shrub with 2 or 4 very thin, blade-like wings on 
the branches. Spreading habit, growing 6-8 ft- high. Tiny 
yellowish flowers, followed by orange-red fruits in autumn; 
surpassed in fall beauty by few if any shrubs, with its tones of 
scarlet, crimson and rose.
