SPIRAEA 
Many people are familiar only with the one variety of spiraea, 
Vanhouttei, and do not know that there are many other types 
with flowering and growing habits which are also very desirable. 
We list below what we believe to be the most satisfactory 
varieties. 
SPIRAEA —ANTHONY WATERER 2 ft. 
ANTHONY WATERER SPIREA 
This is a very popular variety with rosy-crimson, flat flower 
heads and rather narrow leaves. The stems of the new growth 
are light in color. The foliage is often tinged with yellow.

The flowers are white, double, button-like produced in early 
spring in small showy clusters. The foliage is dark green 
turning to orange and scarlet in the fall. It is desirable in the 
shrub border where lower shrubs can be planted in front of 
it and where it receives some protection during the winter.
