Hypericum Calycinum 
KALMIA 
Latifolia 15-18 inch plants, Each $3.00, Three $8.50, Doz. $30.00 
Mountain Laurel creates one of the handsomest late spring spectacles 
in this country. It grows from 6 to 20 feet tall and is covered in May 
and June with clusters of white and blush-white flowers. It does well 
in light shade and sun. Prefers a sandy, peaty, well drained soil and 
responds to the same treatment as rhododendrons. 
KALMIOPSIS 
Leachiana Each $1.00, Three $2.75, Doz. $10.00 
A rare and attractive rock garden plant that has recently caught the 
attention of gardeners the world over. It was discovered a few years 
ago by a Portland, Oregon, botanist. Here is something new for the 
gardens. Undoubtedly one of the rarest and one of the finest of small 
broadleaf evergreens. Believed to be one of the few hold-overs of the 
plants of the glacial period, seemingly a remnant of ancient plant life, 
and found only in a very limited area in the mountains of Oregon. 
Foliage is a deep healthy green and in the spring the plant is covered 
with bright pink blossoms. In every respect, it is a most delightful 
little shrub, among the choicest of the choice. We offer a limited 
number of young plants to advance the introduction of this beauty at 
same requirements as Daphne Cneorum. Perfectly hardy. 
KERRIA 
Japonica flora plena Each $0.75, Three $2.00, Doz. $6.50 
Double Kerria is sometimes called the Globe Flower because the choice 
double golden flowers have a _ ball-like shape not unlike the button 
chrysanthemums. The plant grows vigorously and attains aq maximum 
height of 4 to 5 feet. It is bushy in habit with many bright green 
stems, attractive all winter. Give it a sunny location in front of the 
border and its golden yellow blooms all summer will be a pleasure. 
The flowers last well in water and are excellent for cutting. 
KOELREUTERIA 
Paniculata Each $2.15, Three $6.00, Doz. $19.50 
Varnish Tree is only one of the many names applied to this curiously 
beautiful, drought-resisting ornamental subject. It is variously known In 
the Middle West as Pride of India and the China. Tree, and all three 
names have been assigned to other species, so that in respect to a 
common name it is really an orphan. The compound foliage is com- 
posed of many small leaflets and the brilliant yellow flowers are pro- 
duced in enormous panicles at the tips of the twigs. Late in the sum- 
mer, Numerous conspicuous bladder-shaped pods adorn its branches for 
many weeks. It has a rather open-headed top seldom more than 30 
feet high, and has proved very useful for decorative planting in diffi- 
cult locations subject to dry, hot winds. Another great asset is its 
adaptability to city conditions. A very handsome tree.

Amabilis Each $1.10, Three $3.15, Doz. $9.75

growth its branches at the ends are arching, almost pendulent, so that 
they cover the ground about them and never look ‘‘leggy’’ and bare. It 
is perfectly hardy anywhere, has excellent foliage and in June is a 
fountain of bell-shaped, light pink flowers not unlike the weigela.

the South. Its magnificent flowers throughout the hot summer give to
