RUELLIA MACRANTHA 
See page 17 
CATALINA CHERRY 
Prunus Lyoni. Sometime, we imagine, this shrub will 
simply wear itself out from lack of rest (quite modern we’d 
say) for from one year’s end to another, with hardly a 
breathing spell it just grows and grows and grows. The 
dark heavily varnished leaves of the older growth reflect the 
soft beauty of glistening new leaves. A marvelous shrub of 
rather dense growth for mass planting. Trimmed, it will 
form a 6-10 ft. hedge that cannot be equalled for sheer 
beauty and hardiness. It is also a remarkable success when 
grown as a tree. Creamy white flowers and purple cherry- 
like fruit. 15 ft. Extremely hardy. Sun or shade. 5-gal. 
containers, $1.75; gal. containers, 50c. 
CARNATION-FLOWERED POMEGRANATE 
Punica Chico. A great improvement over the old variety 
that we all thought so showy. This variety has much larger 
and more double flowers of brilliant orange scarlet. Dense 
varnished foliage. Will provide a hot spot of color for months. 
Sun. 2-3 ft. Hardy. 5-gal. containers, $1.50; gal. containers, 
60c. 
BRILLIANT WINTER BERRIES 
For stirring brilliant winter color you can’t beat the 
pyracanthas. For informal hedges and barriers or when used 
against buildings or in the open ground they are always 
attractive. They’ll supply you more berries for Christmas 
than you'll know what to do with. At least a half day’s sun. 
Will not freeze. 
Pyracantha formosana. The finest of all pyracanthas 
—and don’t let anyone tell you otherwise. Huge clus- 
ters of big dark red berries encircle heavy stems and weigh 
down lighter branches with their burden. We have grown 
this variety for 4 or 5 years and have never known it to be 
attacked by the blight that sometimes attacks other pyra- 
canthas. 6-8 ft. 5-gal. containers, $1.75; gal. containers, 50c. 
Pyracantha Rogersiana aurantiaca. Rogers Firethorn. 
Quantities of bright orange berries over the entire plant. 
Excellent for cutting. 6 ft. 5-gal. containers, $1.75; gal. con- 
tainers, 50c. 
Pyracantha yunnanensis Graberi. Enormous clusters of big 
crimson berries. Vigorous grower, Large glossy foliage. An 
outstanding variety. 5 gal. containers, $1.75; gal. containers, 
50c. 
INDIAN HAWTHORN 
Raphiolepis indica. One of our best 5 ft. shrubs (may be 
kept to 2 ft. by pruning), for either sun or shade, because 
of the delicate fragrance of its dainty white bloom, which 
resemble small single peach blossoms, and the character 
built into every 2-inch dark green leathery leaf. Well fo- 
liaged through all seasons and is not affected by extremes 
of either heat or cold. Sun or shade. 5-gal. containers, $1.75; 
eal. containers, 50c. 
Raphiolepis ovata. A most dependable 2% ft. spreading 
shrub that is worried not at all by protracted hot or cold 
spells but keeps its round 2-inch fleshy leaves in a polished 
dark green condition at all times. Bears 4-inch panicles of 
single white flowers, flushed pink, that resemble apple- 
blossoms. Blue black berries about the size of wild grapes 
follow the flowers and remain on the plant for months. 
Either sun or shade. 5-gal. containers, $1.50; gal. contain- 
ers, 40c. 
COFFEE BERRY 
Rhamnus californica. A native shrub of great worth for 
planting in any well drained soil. Grows rapidly to a height 
of 6 or 8 ft., exhibiting smooth bright leaves, umbels of soft 
yellow flowers and purple berries through the seasons. Grows 
about as wide as tall and is well foliaged. 5-gal. containers, 
$2.00; gal. containers, 60c. 
RHODODENDRON 
For planting in filtered shade where uniform moisture 
conditions can be maintained, this family is most satisfactory. 
Huge terminal racemes of large bell-shaped flowers appear 
above the dense leathery foliage about the time your Kurume 
azaleas are through blooming. A Rhododendron in bloom 
always brings forth expressions of amazement at its massive 
beauty. 4-6 ft. Enjoy leafmold and should be fed cotton- 
seed meal or other acid food.

RHUS

without the following indispensable varieties. All are heavily

fertilizer. 
Rhus integrifolia. Lemonade Berry. Leathery deep green 
1%-in. leaves. Dense. Excellent as an espalier. Panicles of

native planting. Extremely hardy and drought resistant. 4-5
