Lagerstroemia Indica—Crapcmyrtle 
LAGERSTROEMIA INDICA - Crapemyrtle 
(Not hardy North. Offered for the benefit of our southern 
customers only.) 
Crapemyrtle will sometimes remain dormant, not putting out 
foliage for a year. Keep the plants watered and soil loosened. 
Severe pruning is recommended to keep plants in shape. This 
should be done in February. 
This popular free-flowering shrub is perhaps one of the loveliest 
plants of the South. Its magnificent flowers throughout the hot 
summer give to gardens a gaiety not possible to duplicate with 
anything else. All are hardy south of Baltimore. 
Wm. Toovey Each $1.25, Doz. $12.50

red flowers. Distinct and attractive foliage help make this a 
beautiful flowering shrub.

LEUCOTHOE 
Catesbaei Each $2.00, Doz. $20.00 
It has an arching, spraylike habit, suggestive of a fern, very 
useful for low planting in the foreground of taller evergreens. 
The showy, fragrant, white flowers are borne in long clusters 
hanging from the base of each leaf. The lasting beauty of this 
plant is in its evergreen foliage. 
Kalmia Latifolia 
[137] 
LONICERA - Honeysuckle 
Yunnanensis Each $1.00, Doz. $10.00 
A rare, hardy, evergreen shrub. The foliage is dark green and 
with fragrant white flowers which are followed by conspicuous 
translucent violet berries. The horizontally spreading branches 
make it very suitable for "facing down" tall growing shrubs 
or for under-planting; ground covering in shade or sun. Ex¬ 
cellent for covering banks or hiding objectionable gutters or 
drains along drives. There is no garden where bare, tall shrubs 
are growing where it cannot be used to good advantage. Ulti¬ 
mate height and spread, 5 feet. 
Syringantha W'olfi (Daphne Honeysuckle) Each $1.00, Doz. $10.00 
The twiggy, drooping branches of this most delightful and 
practically unknown small shrub are covered with rosy lilac, 
showy, fragrant blooms in clusters not unlike in fragrance and 
form the Daphne Cneorum. It is of very easy culture. Does 
well in light shade or full sun, growing not much higher than 
3 to 3 Vz feet. Excellent for in front of large shrubs or in the 
flower border and rock garden. 
MAGNOLIA 
Soulangeana Each $5.00, Doz. $502)0 
Soulange's Magnolia, sometimes called the Saucer Magnolia for 
no reason at all, is the rather rare Pink Magnolia of city gar¬ 
dens and parks. It makes a small tree with gorgeous shining 
foliage and in early spirng produces its enormous, pinkish white 
flowers, more or less purplish outside and slightly fragrant. This 
Magnolia is the showiest of the family for planting in northern 
gardens, and when in bloom, even one plant will dominate the 
garden—yes, the neighborhood, if it is a sizeable specimen. A 
whole street in Rochester, lined with this variety, is a mecca 
for all enthusiasts every spring. We offer flowering plants with 
a lot of buds, about 3 to 5 feet tall. 
Stellata (Star Magnolia) Each $6.00, Doz. $60.00 
The rarest of the hardy Magnolias. It grows to a small spread¬ 
ing tree; however, this requires years. Early in spring the plant 
is covered with a mass of fragrant pure white starlike flowers, 
which are 3 inches across. The numerous long waxy white 
petals are held together in a lovely starlike shape. A beautiful 
thing for a small lawn or any small garden. We offer fine plants 
about ZVi feet tall with flower buds ready to bloom. 
PACHISTIMA (See page 153) 
PYRACANTHA (Crataegus) - Firethorn 
Coccinca L.alandi Each $0.75, Doz. $7.50 
A most remarkable fruiting evergreen shrub. Bears attractive 
large trusses of white flowers during the late spring followed 
by an abundance of brilliant orange-scarlet berries which re¬ 
main late into the winter. A marvelous plant for foundation 
planting where soil is dry. The long shoots it makes can be used 
as a vine over a doorway or along a window casing. The plants 
can be trimmed to fit any position. It is difficult to transplant 
old or large plants. We therefore send only young stock which 
establishes quickly. It prefers a sandy soil and warm location.
