HYPERICUM - St. John’s Wort 
Attractive and charming low growing, summer-flowering shrubs. 
Their brilliant flowers are beautifully formed and grow on slender 
branches from early summer until stopped by frost. Excellent sub¬ 
jects for the flower border or in the foreground of taller shrubs, 
as well as for ground covering. 
Calycinum Each $0,50, Doz, $5.00, 100 $25.00 
This is a most valuable variety because it can also be used as 
a ground cover for both sunny and semi-shady places. The 
underground runners are produced so freely as to completely 
cover the ground; at the tops the golden yellow flowers shine 
like jewels. Its height is about 1 2 to 18 inches. We recom¬ 
mend this as one of the best and hardiest. 
Henryi Each $0.50, Doz. $5.00 
A dwarf, spreading shrub with large, showy, golden yellow flow¬ 
ers. In very cold winters the tops freeze back, which is of no 
consequence as the new growth is rapid and flowers even more 
freely. Ultimate height 3 feet. 
^ Moserianum Each $0.50, Doz. $5.00 
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. 
KALMIOPSIS 
Leachiana Each $1.00, Doz. $10.00 
A rare and attractive rock garden plant that has recently 
caught the attention of gardeners the world over. It was dis¬ 
covered a few years ago by a Portland, Oregon, botanist. Here 
is something new for the gardens. Undoubtedly one of the 
rarest and one of the finest of small braadleaf evergreens. Be¬ 
lieved to be one of the few hold-overs of the plants of the 
glacial period, seemingly a remnant of ancient plant life, and 
found only in a very limited area in the mountains of Oregon. 
Foliage is a deep healthy green and in the spring the plant is 
covered with bright pink blossoms. In every respect, it is a most 
delightful little shrub, among the choicest of the choice. We 
offer a limited number of young plants to advance the intro¬ 
duction of this beauty at same requirements as Daphne 
Cneorum. Perfectly hardy. 
KALMIA 
Latifolia 15-18 inch plants. Each $2.00, Doz. $20.00 
Mountain Laurel creates one of the handsomest late spring 
spectacles in this country. It grows from 6 to 20 feet tall and 
is covered in May and June with clusters of white and blush- 
white flowers. It does well in light shade and sun. Prefers a 
sandy, peaty, well drained soil and responds to the same treat¬ 
ment as rhododendrons. 
Kolkwitzia Amabilis 
Hypericum Calycinum 
KERRIA 
Japonica flora plena Each $0.75, Doz. $7.50 
Double Kerria is sometimes called the Globe Flower because 
the choice double golden flowers have a ball-like shape not 
unlike the button chrysanthemums. The plant grows vigor¬ 
ously and attains a maximum height of 4 to 5 feet. It is bushy 
in habit with many bright green stems, attractive all winter. 
Give it a sunny location in front of the border and its golden 
yellow blooms all summer will be a pleasure. The flowers 
last well in water and are excellent for cutting. 
KOLKWITZIA - Beauty Bush 
Amabilis Each $1.25, Doz. $12.50 
A handsome flowering shrub which came from China. While 
upright in growth its branches at the ends are arching, almost 
pendulant, so that they cover the ground about them and never 
look "leggy" and bare. It is perfectly hardy anywhere, has 
excellent foliage and in June is a fountain of bell-shaped, light 
pink flowers not unlike the weigela. Grows anywhere and does 
exceedingly well in dry, sandy, poor soil. Kolkwitzias do not 
bloom the first year or two after planting. Ultimate height 
about 7 to 8 feet. 
LABURNUM VOSSI - Golden Chain 
Each $4.50, Doz. $45.00 
Long-clustered Golden Chain. Small tree-like shrub with green 
bark and foliage like exaggerated clover leaves. Flowers are 
pure golden yellow and formed exactly like those of Wisteria. 
The hanging clusters attain as much as 1 8 to 20 inches length 
and are borne very profusely in late spring. Very beautiful. 
Usually bloom the first year after planting.
