drangea Paniculata 
Grandiflora blooms 
over a long period 
through summer and 
fall. In this picture 
is shown a tall shrub 
planting with a bor¬ 
der foreground of 
Hydrangea P. G. 
Hydrangeas are at 
their best in shade 
or part shade. They 
combine beautifully 
with Spirea Anthony 
Waterer (see page 
31) which blooms at 
the same season of 
the year, and being 
somewhat shorter in 
growth this red- 
flowering Spirea as a 
foreground edge of a 
Hydrangea group 
touches the setting 
up to perfection. 
Watering of Hydran¬ 
geas through dry 
seasons, should never 
be neglected. 
Hardy Bush---Hydrangeas 
Hydrangea Paniculata 
Grandiflora, commonly called 1’. G. 
Hydrangea. Grows 4 to 5 ft. tall, and 
produces a wealth of immense heart- 
shaped flowers. When the blossoms 
first open in August they are white, 
turning to a pink and bronze color later, and remain on the 
bush throughout the late summer in that color. Very hardy, 
and a sure bloomer.
