See page 29 
FLOWERING POMEGRANATE 
Punica Granatum. Here is another shrub that has been 
somewhat neglected of late years, and without good reason, 
because from June until October it supports a wealth of 
lively double blooms that look like they had been made 
from wax. The heavy dark green highly polished foliage is 
always attractive. Easily grown in any sunny location. 8-10 
ft. We grow them in scarlet and variegated. 5-gal. contain- 
ers, $1.75; gal. containers, 50c.

CREPE MYRTLE 
This phenomenal plant doesn’t get its blooming under way 
until late in July but when it does start it very often keeps 
up the good work until frost. Grows naturally as a shrub 
but may be trained into a handsome round-headed tree. 
Keep the plant moist through summer and early fall and 
you will be rewarded with many great panicles of fringed 
12-15 ft. 
crepe paper-like flowers.

Philade!phus virginalis. Through May and June great big 
clusters of 1% in. semi-double white flowers, deliciously 
fragrant, spread themselves bounteously over the plant. The 
delicate waxy texture of the flower petals, the sweet per- 
fume and the luscious bright green foliage combine to make 
a shrub of exceptional merit. Sun or part shade. 6-7 ft.

useful for indoor decorations. Through summer and _ fall 
the plant grows thriftily keeping itself well covered with 
clean bright foliage. 6 ft.
