CERCIS 
Canadensis Each $1,00, Doz. $10.00 
A slender, graceful tree 1 5 to 20 feet high, the Judas Tree or 
Redbud grows naturally throughout eastern United States, and 
is one of the chief adornments of the early spring landscape. 
Before the leaves come out, the branchlets are covered with 
clusters of small, purplish pink, pea blossoms, very charming 
when associated with the red cedar and the dogwoods. 
Chinensis Each $1.25, Doz. $12.50 
Chinese Redbuds are similar little trees with larger, rounder 
leaves and a more shrubby habit in cultivation. The purplish 
pink flowers are nearly twice as large as those of their native 
relative and noticeably darker. 
ERECT GROWING DOUBLE CHERRIES 
Gyoiko Each $3.00, Doz. $30.00

cerise. Quite unusual.

to the Mountain. Probably the most common and best known 
double. Flowers very large, up to 2 inches in diameter with 
about 30 large petals; deep rosy pink.

large flowers are soft pink, soon becoming white. Then as they 
get older they turn deep cerise so that the tree always has 
plenty of both pink and white flowers at one time. It is an 
extremely profuse bloomer and good grower. New leaves deep¬ 
est bronzy purple. 
Shogetsu Each $3.00, Doz. $30.00 
Easily the most profuse bloomer in the doubles. When in full 
flower the tree is practicaly a solid mass of bloom. Flowers pale

know of is in Sacramento.

Cytisus Scopariiis 
JAPANESE FLOWERING CHERRIES 
Very beautiful early spring flowering small trees, seldom grow¬ 
ing over 25 feet tall. From early to late May they are loaded 
with single or double flowers of great charm and beauty. There 
are upright growing, spreading, and weeping forms of this lovely 
tree. Should be grown in every garden where winters permit their 
planting. We offer only the hardiest varieties which are success¬ 
fully grown at Highland Park, Rochester, N. Y. 
Akebono ((Daybreak) Each $3.00, Doz. $30.00 
Erect growing Single Cherry. In our opinion this is the most 
beautiful tree in the world or at least the most beautiful we 
have ever seen. It is a pink flowering type of the famous 
Yoshino Cherry so widely planted in Tokyo. There are said to 
be over 10,000 trees of it in that city. It belongs in the same 
class as those around the tidal basin in Washington, D. C., but 
there is considerable variation in those trees. When in bloom 
this variety is a cloud of pink with not a leaf showing. We get 
the same old thrill from it every spring as it does not seem 
possible to remember from one year to another how superbly 
beautiful it is. Luckily it is one of the best growers and soon 
makes a good sized and freely blooming tree. Very early; the 
first true Japanese Cherry to bloom. 
Amanogawa Each $3.00, Doz. $30.00 
Erect growing, semi-double Cherry. Name means "Milky V/ay." 
Unlike all others in its extremely narrow, erect growth, which 
takes little room. Flowers semi-double, pink, in erect clusters. 
COTONEASTER - Rock Spray 
Apiculata Each $1.25, Doz. $12.50

little known variety grows about four feet high with arching 
branches weighed down during autumn with masses of bright / 
crimson sub-globose fruits. The foliage is shiny green and V 
beautiful through the year. Perfectly hardy. 
Divaricata Each $1.00, Doz. $10.00 
From Central and Western China. 5 to 6 feet high, of graceful 
spreading habit; small green polished leaves and red egg-shaped 
fruits; few shrubs can equal its glorious scarlet autumn tints. 
*Horizontalis Fine 6-inch pot plants. Each $1.00, Doz. $10.00 
(Prostrate or Rock Cotoneaster.) A low-growing shrub with 
almost horizontal branches covered with shiny dark green 
leaves. The fru ’, which hangs on until spring, is bright red. 
It is a most desirable plant for rock garden, in front of shrub¬ 
bery or at the base of steps near the front door. 
Meyerii Each $1.25, Doz. $12.50 
One of the finest of the species growing 6 feet tall. The branches

silvery below, somewhat tomentose. Covered in autumn and 
late summer with coral-pink fruits, making a lovely picture in 
the autumn garden. Of easy culture and perfectly hardy. 
Multiflora (Reflexa) Each $1.00, Doz. $10J00
