Our homes become homes in the true sense, only when they are planted. Ornamental 
shrubs are the foundation of all landscape plantings. They lend a charm and grace to the 
home grounds that is invaluable. One can have a continuous succession of bloom from 
early in April to the days when frost nips the flowers of the very latest to bloom. Send for
