 Piddlsics 
(Butterfly Bush or Summer Lilac) 

One of the finest summer-flowering shrubs. Unex- 
celled as a cut flower plant or ornamental lawn shrub. 
Occasionally, in extreme winters, the top may kill 
back partially, but the root is absolutely hardy, and 
shoots up quickly in the spring, making perfect, well 
branched specimens which are filled with bloom 
spikes. They radiate a delightful perfume and acquire 
the glowing tints and also the shape of lilac blossoms. 
Cha rming This is a very new introduction 
into the Buddleia field, and is a 
genuine bright pink, with but a slight indication of 
the basic lavender. Extreme length of sprays with 
large, well set flowers which appear at the tip be- 
fore the base of the spikes has begun to fade. This 
magnificent shrub certainly deserves a place in 
your lawn or garden. Strong, No. 1, field-grown 
plants, 50c each; 3 for $1.25. 
Dubonnet A gorgeous color, similar to that 
of the famous French wine, Du-

spikes closely set with bloom. A good late summer 
cut flower. One of the newest and best. Strong, 
No. 1, field-grown plants, 50c each; 3 for 51.25.

$1.25. 
Hartwegi A fine new variety which has 
proved its superior hardiness; does 
not winter-kill easily. Thrifty, compact grower with 
extra heavy, dark green foliage. The bright lav- 
ender flowers are densely set on the spikes, and 
bloom from the tip down. Fine, No. 1, field-grown 
plants, only 45c each; 3 for $1.15.
