Tamarix Odessa 
Grows to a height of 12 to 15 
feet, and can also he grown 
in form of a tree to a height 
of 25 ft. Odessa is extra 
hardy, its slender branches 
covered with minute, alter¬ 
nate scale-like buds of bluish 
green. During the blooming 
period the shruh is taking on 
a delicate pink color as the 
small pink blossoms cover 
every twig and branch. Each 
branch becomes an individ¬ 
ual spray of pink color. This 
blooming period is in .June, 
lasting for several weeks, 
gradually changing back to 
the bluish green lacy appear¬ 
ance. For a lower and extra 
dense bush growth the shruh 
can be cut back to within a 
foot from the ground every 
two or three years. The re¬ 
sult will be an extremely 
dense growth that does not 
exceed 5 to (i feet in height, 
Tamarix Hispida 
Particularly adapted for 
shearing to a lower bush 
form. Without shearing it 
will grow as tall as the 
Odessa, but if sheared every 
few years it forms an extra 
nice dense growth from the 
ground up. In normal sea¬ 
sons this shrub blooms be¬ 
ginning in June through the 
greater part of the summer. 
It is hardy anywhere in the 
Middle West and the Eastern 
states, and requires little 
care in watering or special 
cultivation. The Tamarix 
vaiieties are not affected by 
saline or alkaline soil, they 
thrive very well in the very 
spray of salt water at sea¬ 
side plantings. The color of 
the blossom of the Hispida 
variety is more of a carmine, 
or deeper pink, than that of 
the Odessa. Plant Tamarix 
somewhere in your garden; 
you will love it.

FIREBUSH 
C'.vdonia Japonica. Very

produces a wealth of flow¬ 
ers. Deep flame-red cup

wood of this shrub are a 
beautiful sight. Blooming- 
time April and May, later 
followed by small yellow

Red Waxberry, Coralberry # u y ,™ h i r ‘ c, G r r ?^ 
3 to 5 ft. tall. It is a native shrub of Nebraska, some¬ 
times called “Indianberry.” I recommend this shrub es¬ 
pecially on account of its superior hardiness, healthy growth, 
resistance to drought, and because it can be grown most 
anywhere without special care. It will hold the soil on 
steep land, will make a nice showing as an informal hedge. 
Blooms bright pink in July, the berries however, which cling 
to the bush all through late fall and winter, are the more 
important ornament of the shrub. They are coral red and 
come in such numbers as to create a showy picture.

pretty Snowball bush, bought from Sonderegger Nurseries.

rasmonea OnOWDail reaching a height of 10 to

compact blossoms, pure white, in freedom of blooming as well as 
in size and perfect form of the flowers this variety has never 
been surpassed by any of the later introductions. Blooms in May.
