FLOWERING ALMOND 
FLOWERING ALMOND—First of the 
Season. Each twig a mass of blossoms— 
double pink; also double white. $1.00 each, 
3 for $2.50. 
ALTHEA, OR ROSE OF 
SHARON 
Undoubtedly the most showy of all shrubs 
flowering in autumn. Here are two really 
attractive kinds—of tidy habit, growing to a 
height of 7 to 8 feet. 
COELESTIS (meaning “‘sky blue’). It is just 
that, and the only true blue Althea. There 
is a continuous array of large single blue 
flowers from August right through to the 
Mum season. The best of Altheas. 
SNOWDRIFT. Perfectly formed, large, 
single, pure white flowers. No finer white. 
Above two, 2 to 3 ft., 75 cts. each, $7.50 
per doz.; 3 to 4 ft., $1.00 each, $10 per doz. 
Also red, pink, and other colors: 2 to 3 ft., 
60 cts. each, $6.00 per doz.; 3 to 4 ft., 
75 cts. each, $7.50 per doz. 
For other Altheas, see Hibiscus, Page 26. 
BUTTERFLY BUSH (Buddleia) 
CUT-FLOWERS ALL SUMMER 
No other summer-flowering shrubs bloom so 
continuously or are as useful for cutting. 
Strong-growing, they should be planted in the 
background in full sun. A light, not over-rich 
soil is best. Protect as for roses. 
ALTERNIFOLIA. Chinese Butterfly Bush. 
Makes a wide, spready, graceful 7- to 8- 
foot shrub, covered during July with lilac- 
purple flowers on semi-pendent branches. 
THE NEW PINK, CHARMING. Lavender 
pink early in the season; distinctly pink 
from mid-summer on. The only pink Budd- 
leia and a first class addition to their group. 
Awarded Silver Medal of Pennsylvania 
Horticultural Society. 50 cts. each, $5.00 
per doz. 
ELEANOR. (New). Shading from lavender 
to Eleanor-blue. Easily the finest of the 
lavender kind. Tremendously long, well- 
filled spikes and good foliage. Plant 5 feet. 
75 cts. each, $7.50 per doz. 
ROYAL RED. (See Page 23.) 
ROYAL PURPLE. It is a deep rich purple- 
red, in which the red seems to glow under 
artificial or bright sunlight. The entire 
flower opens at one time. Free-flowering. 
Plants from 3-inch pots, will bloom freely 
this year. 75 cts. each, $7.50 per doz. 
HARTWEGI. Rose-lavender. 50 cts. each. 
1LE DE FRANCE. Deep claret-red. Plant 
very free flowering and less rampant. 
50 cts. each, $1.25 for 3, $5.00 per doz.
