KERRIA japonica Single Kerria 
Slender, graceful shrub of medium 
height. Pretty, single, bright yellow 
flowers appear in June, and its bark, 
light green the year round, makes it 
attractive in winter. Indifferent to par¬ 
tial shade but must have a well-drained 
soil. 
K. japonica flore-pleno Double Kerria 
Similar to the preceding variety. More 
vigorous in growth, with double chrys- 
anlhemum-like yellow flowers in June 
and appearing more or less throughout 
the summer. 
LIGUSTRUM amurense Amur Privet 
An upright plant similar to the better- 
known California Privet, but more 
hardy. Makes a very fine formal hedge 
or screen and, like all the Privets, en¬ 
dures semi-shade. 
L. Ibolium Ibolium Privet 
The most satisfactory of all the Privets 
for hedges. It has the large, glossy foli¬ 
age of the California variety, and the 
spreading habit and hardiness of the 
Ibota. We believe that this will soon 
supplant the California, which is not 
always dependable. 
L. Ibota Ibota Privet 
In this variety the branches are more 
spreading, and if unsheared will grow 
10 feet tall. Has a rather showy lilac¬ 
like white flower and in the fall and 
winter is covered with blue-black ber¬ 
ries attractive to the birds. Very valu¬ 
able for screen and border planting, as 
well as a fine hedge plant. 
L. obtusifolium Regelianum 
Regel Privet 
A low shrub with branches that are al¬ 
most horizontal. It has dense foliage, 
and its graceful habit of growth makes 
it a fine variety for foundation and 
border planting, as well as for hedges. 
Ligustrum ovalifoiium 
California Privet 
Probably the most popular 
hedge plant, but unfortun¬ 
ately less hardy than the 
other Privets. Handsome, 
upright growth with dark 
glossy green leaves. 
LILAC. (See Syringa.) 
LONICERA bella albida 
White Belle Honeysuckle 
Upright, spreading shrub, 
usually growing 6 to 8 feet 
tall. Small, pinkish white 
flowers in May, followed in 
August and September by a 
grand profusion of red ber¬ 
ries. This attractive shrub 
grows in any soil and likes 
a sunny location. Birds are 
very fond of the fruits. 
L. fragrantissima 
Winter Honeysuckle 
Early in the spring, before 
the foliage, numerous small, 
very sweet scented flowers 
appear. The rich green foliage persists 
until midwinter. 
L. Korolkowi floribunda 
Blue-Leaf Honeysuckle 
Tall, broad-headed shrub with striking 
blue-gray foliage which contrasts beau¬ 
tifully with its abundance of dainty 
pink flowers in May. Blooms are fol¬ 
lowed by bright red fruits. A valuable 
addition to any border if given plenty of 
room. 
L. Maacki Amur Honeysuckle 
In the fall this plant is highly orna¬ 
mental, with its great number of bright 
red berries. Tall growing; indifferent to 
soil conditions but likes a sunny loca¬ 
tion. 
L. Morrowi Morrow Honeysuckle 
Wide spreading branches, growing 
about 6 feet tall. Pretty white flowers 
in May followed by large quantities of 
blood-red fruits in August. 
L. Ruprechtiana Manchurian Honeysuckle 
A tall growing shrub of graceful habit, 
with dark green foliage that is grayish 
beneath. Yellowish white flowers in 
June and red berries in autumn. 
L. syringantha Wolfi Lilac Honeysuckle 
Dwarf, low growing variety with spread¬ 
ing, graceful branches that lie close to 
the ground. Numerous fragrant, pale 
rosy lilac flowers that last a long time. 
Fine for bank plantings or in the fore¬ 
ground of shrub borders. 
L. tatarica Tartarian Honeysuckle 
One of the most popular Honeysuckles, 
with its beautiful pink flowers in May, 
followed by an abundance of red berries 
in July and August. Tall, upright in 
form. 
L. tatarica alba 
White Tartarian Honeysuckle 
A white-flowered form of the preceding 
variety. 
Lonicera tatarica grandiflora rosea 
Bride Honeysuckle 
Similar to the two preceding varieties, but 
having slightly larger, delicate pink flowers. 
L. tatarica rubra 
Red Tartarian Honeysuckle 
Same characteristics as all the Tartarian va¬ 
rieties, with deep rose-pink, almost red flow¬ 
ers. 
MYRICA carolinensis Bayberry 
Very attractive shrub of medium height, with 
dark green, aromatic foliage. In winter its 
compact clusters of waxy, grayish white ber¬ 
ries are very conspicuous. Particularly valu¬ 
able for planting in dry, sandy, sterile soil. 
PHILADELPHUS coronarius Mock Orange 
The old-fashioned Mock Orange that every¬ 
body knows and admires. Grows to 10 feet, 
and in June is a solid mass of white blooms 
which are delightfully fragrant. This variety 
will stand partial shade. 
P. coronarius foliis aureis 
Golden Mock Orange 
A dwarf form with bright yellow foliage 
which holds its color throughout the summer. 
P. grandiflorus Big Scentless Mock Orange 
Tall, vigorous shrub similar to Coronarius, 
with larger flowers but not so fragrant. 
P. Lemoinei Lemoine Mock Orange 
Very popular, graceful, medium growing 
shrub, bearing clusters of fragrant white 
flowers in June. Should be included in every 
shrub planting.
