DEUTZIA—Continued 
Gracilis alba (Slender Deutzia). A graceful dwarf grower; 
dense, bushy, arching branches wreathed with pure white 
Lily-of-the-Valley-shaped blossoms in May. Valuable for 
low hedges, borders, or in front of taller shrubs. 2 to 4 
feet at maturity. 
Gracilis rosea (Slender Deutzia). This is the same as above 
except has delicate pink blossoms. 
Lemoinej. Very similar in type and habit to the Gracilis 
but flowers are larger and shrub taller in growth. 3 to 
© feet at maturity. 
Pride of Rochester. Deservedly popular, this husky va- 
riety produces masses of miniature bell-shaped blossoms 
in May which last several weeks. Blush color present 
sometimes turning to pink. 8 to 10 feet at maturity. 
ELDER (Sambucus) 
A display of the Elder is most effective when planted in 
mass. They do well in damp, shady places where few shrubs 
thrive. White flowers in June and July, followed by reddish 
purple berries in clusters. 
American Golden Leaved Elder (S. canadensis aurea). 
Elegant golden yellow foliage, attractive for mass effects. 
6 to 10 feet at maturity.

ers, followed with scarlet berries, not edible. 8 to 10 feet 
at maturity. 




Golden Bell (Forsythia Suspensa Fortunei) 
DOGWOOD (Cornus) 
The Dogwood group is mainly valuable for the brilliancy of their bark 
and berries. The fruit, maturing in the fall, is not alone attractive to the 
human eye, but to the appetite of the birds as well. The shrub is well 
adapted to shade or planted in the open, and in damp or even wet places. 
Alba sibirica (Coral Dogwood). Creamy white flowers in May or June. 
Coral-red, upright branches laden with light blue flowers. 8 to 10 feet 
at maturity. 
Florida (Flowering Dogwood). A “three season” tree. Spring brings large 
white flowers before the leaves; late summer has red berries to attract 
the birds; and fall the rich scarlet colored foliage. One of the nicest tall 
growing varieties. 15 to 25 feet at maturity. 
Florida rubra (Pink Flowering Dogwood). Considered the “aristocrat” 
among the Dogwood family. Its flowers vary from blush-pink to deep 
rose, making a lovely sight in May and June, and the fruit in September 
almost equal in beauty. 15 to 25 feet at maturity. See colored illustration. 
Stolonifera flaviramea (Golden Twig Dogwood). Golden yellow twigs 
and branches make a striking winter effect, contrasting in combination 
with red-barkea 
Dogwoods. ‘Ihis 
variety sometimes 
catalogued as Cor- 
nus Lutea. 6 to 8 
feet at maturity. 
Hydrangea “Pee Gee”

Alatus compacta (Dwarf Winged Euonymus). A dwarf type 
of the above having the same characteristics. 3 to 5 feet.
