AMELANCHIER (continued) 
stolonifera hybrid, the botanical status of this does not 
seem to be properly established as yet. Plants are to 
breast high, in foliage, bloom and fruiting habit much 
like grandiflora and laevis. Berries are the largest of 
all our Eastern Amelanchier, remarkably tender 
skinned, good to eat and for preserves...........-+- 
AMPELOPSIS aconitifolia, the luxuriant freshness of its 
dainty cutleaf foliage and its ability, unassisted, to 
fill out corners, ramble over fences and walls will make 
this hardy vine hailing from Northern China a first 
consideration in its class, domestic seed............. 
AZALEA altaclarensis, Altaclare Azalea, said to be a hybrid 
between Azalea mollis and our native viscosa, remark- 
able for its deep yellow flowers. ............-2--e0. 
schlippenbachi, Royal Azalea. This truly royal plant 
has wrongly been accused of being doubtfully hardy 
North. The truth is there are several strains. Nursery 
men who planted this from seed of nondescript origin 
report failure with plants killing back every Winter. 
Plants grown from Northern seed, however, are en- 
tirely hardy in New England where numerous plantings 
with specimens to four and six feet prosper, flower and 
fruit year after year. We offer domestic seed.......

best thunbergi variety, more robust and erect in habit 
and heavier fruiting than thunbergi................
