Red-Leaved Barberry (Berberis Thunbergi Atropurpurea) 
Beautiful new red-leaved sport of the Japanese Barberry, prized for its 
bright foliage the entire season. Rich, lustrous bronze-red, like the rich- 
est red-leaved maples—becoming more brilliant and gorgeous in sum- 
mer, changing to vivid orange-scarlet in autumn. A leaf coloring un- 
equaled by any shrub, is followed by brilliant scarlet berries all winter. 
To develop its high coloring at all seasons plant in full exposure to the 
sun. Adds distinction to any planting. Makes a perfect color companion, 
immune to rust and disease.

Berberis Thunbergi Pluriflora Erecta

with extra heavy foliage giving a dainty, upright hedge of a rich green 
color that changes to brilliant autumn tints. Perfectly hardy, bearing

COTONEASTER 
Multiflora (Reflexa) Bare root, hedging size, Doz. $7.50, 100 $55.00 
Here follows a report published by the nationally famous Morton 
Arboretum of Lisle, Illinois: ‘“More spectacular are the red-fruited 
forms, which comprise a majority of the species in cultivation. Of these, 
Cotoneaster Multiflora is a perennial favorite here. Our largest speci- 
men has long since exceeded its designated ultimate height, and grown 
into a shapely bush 10 feet tall. The whip-like branches are arching 
and spreading, and in late May erupt along the entire length into 
clusters of white Hawthorn-like flowers. An effect equally pleasing 
prevails in autumn when good sized crimson fruits of dazzling brilliance 
fringe the branches. They remain effective well into October or No- 
vember. Between the flowering and fruiting seasons, interest is fur- 
nished by the broad, clean appearing foliage of soft blue-green.” 
For hedges this variety is particularly well adapted and we offer for 
that purpose nice plants about 3 feet tall for a special price. 
LIGUSTRUM (Privet) 
Amurense (Amur Privet) 3 to 4 feet, Doz. $3.50, 100 $22.50 
A tall growing, upright shrub with dark green, lustrous leaves. Per- 
fectly hardy. This plant has been used for hedges to a tremendous 
extent in the past few years and has given general satisfaction. It also 
aor an excellent quick-growing screen. Ultimate height, unpruned, 
eet. 
Ibolium (Ibolium Privet) 2 to 3 feet, Doz. $2.50, 100 $18.00 
This very hardy Privet is a hybrid between Ibota and California Privet, 
having the rich, glossy green leaves of the latter and the bushiness and 
hardiness of the former. It is becoming more popular for hedge plant- 
ing each year, and makes an excellent specimen, almost evergreen shrub 
in some locations. Ultimate height, unpruned, 8 feet.

BUXUS (Boxwood) 
There is no doubt that “Box” is one of the finest and most useful of 
the broadleaf evergreens. It lends itself to all kinds of uses in the 
garden or as specimens in tubs on the porch or terrace. ] 
It has three particularly fine and unusual attributes which are not 
commonly found in other shrubs: 
One: It does well on poor soils. 
Two: It grows lfuxuriantly in sun or shade. 
Three: It grows fine under the drip of tall trees. 
Further, no matter how old or how big it gets, you can successfully 
transplant it, move it, or sell it. Many a small fortune goes to gar- 
deners in the South whose ancestors planted small Box trees twenty- 
five or more years ago. 7 
If you live in a locality where ‘’Boxwood’’ grows reasonably well, by 
all means plant it for a hedge and edging or for formal use as well as 
unclipped specimens. 
BOXWOOD EDGING 
Buxus suffruticosa : \ 
This is the true dwarf ‘Box’ and the best kind to use for edgings 
around flower or rose beds. It can be clipped and kept so it will not 
exceed 12 inches in height. 
4 to 6 inches high Doz. $2.15, 100 $16.00, 1000 $150.00 
Doz. $3.50, 100 $26.00, 1000 $250.00 
6 to 8 inches high 
8 to 10 inches high Three $1.75, Doz. $5.00, 100 $35.00 
BOXWOOD HEDGE, SMALL-LEAF 
Buxus sempervirens ; 
The Sempervirens Box is found throughout the South where it has de- 
veloped into quite large specimens. Old plants form beautiful irregular 
masses. Can also be clipped in formal hedge or shapes. 
9 to 12 inches high Each $1.15, Three $3.25, Doz. $10.00 
12 to 15 inches high Each $1.75, Three $4.75, Doz. $15.00 
BOXWOOD HEDGE, LARGE-LEAF 
Buxus Hansworthensis Doz. $6.00, 100 $40.00 
By far one of the finest of Box. This variety is not in common use, and is 
found only in the gardens of experts, and those “in the know.” It is 
quite fast growing, exceedingly hardy, much better able to withstand 
winter conditions, does not ‘burn,’ grows into a compact, upright form, 
and has large dark green leaves. It lends itself to development into 
individual specimens, and is particularly nice in low hedges of from 
2 to 6 feet. May be clipped into any shape or form desired. Grown 
natural without pruning it develops into a semi-loose pyramidal shrub 
8 feet or more high. We offer for the present only young plants about 
12 inches high. 
VIBURNUM OPULUS NANA 
The Hedge Viburnum 
Each $1.00, Three $2.60, Doz. $7.25, 100 $50.00 
A dwarf, stubby plant never over two feet high, particularly well adapted 
for edgings and hedges in wet or heavy clay ground where it is difficult 
for other plants to thrive. Does well in light shade. It is extremely hardy. 
Can be clipped or left natural as desired. In either case it grows into a 
fine compact and low hedge which requires no care.
