OVER A CENTURY OF HONEST DEALING 
































Kolkwitzia 
Kolkwitzia amabilis (Beauty Bush). 6 to 10 feet. One of the most desirable introduc- 
tions from Asia. Strong canes develop into graceful, sweeping branches. The flow- 
ers are shell to deep pink, with yellow streaks, and produced in great profusion all 
over the plant. Might be called a much-refined Weigela. Deeply admired.

Ligustrum - Privet 
For Hedge Plants, see page 26. 
Ligustrum sinense (Chinese Privet). 6 to 10 feet. The small-leaved, almost evergreen 
Privet, much used for hedges, and also very desirable for landscape work because of 
its rapid growth, good foliage, and graceful branching. Is not particular about soil, 
and for screening and mass planting is unexcelled. We are very partial to its use 
in the South. Hardy where California Privet will succeed. Bes

L. ibota regelianum (Regel’s Privet). 6 to 7 feet. Low, spreading, and very twiggy, 
with dense foliage not so glossy as the California Privet. Because of its graceful 
appearance, hardiness, and adaptability to any soil and shady places, it is the most 
widely used Privet for landscape work. Each

Lespedeza formosa (Purple Bush Clover). An attractive, August-blooming, herba- 
ceaus shrub, with reddish purple, sweet scented, pealike flowers borne on arch- 
ing branches, and lasting several weeks. Very graceful; makes a good ‘forward’ 
plant for shrub border. The tops may freeze in a severe winter, but come back 
each spring. Each Each

Lonicera - Honeysuckle 
Lonicera fragrantissima (Fragrant Bush Honeysuckle). 7 to 10 feet. So called because 
of its very fragrant white blossoms in April. The foliage is deep green and glossy. 
Grows well in partial shade, poor soil, or in cities where tender plants fail. Almost 
evergreen. Excellent for screens, spe- 
cimens, or hedges. One of our best 
and most useful shrubs. For Hedges,
