ALMOND, Double Flowering Pink. One of the very earliest 
shrubs to bloom. Low bushes grow 2 to 4 feet high and are 
covered early in the spring before the leaves appear with great 
masses of little pink roselike flowers. 2 to 3 ft., 60c; 2 for $1.00 
ALMOND, Double Flowering White. Bush looks same as the 
pink, but more upstanding, and absolutely covered with little 
intensely double, pure white flowers like little double Roses. 
Our finest and very early white shrub. 
2 to 3 ft., 60c; 2 for $1.00 
BUDDLEIA. (Pot Plants.) (See page 23 for color illustration.) 
No plant will fit more easily into any shrub planting than will 
the Buddleias. Plant the smallest slip of a rooted bush into 
any plant arrangement. Put it in good soil and then give it 
good cultivation and in six weeks‘time you have a large, fast- 
growing bush that is beginning to show its developing buds. 
Within another two weeks this plant will be entirely covered 
with beautiful long lilac-like blooms which will continue in full 
bloom right up to killing frost. These new and finer varieties 
are far superior to the old Butterfly Bush as it was first sent 
out. We offer 4 distinct colors this spring: 
Dubonnet, deep wine-red 
Eleanor, soft lavender-blue 
Ile de France, dark purple-red 
Pink Charming, beautiful pink
