EUONYMUS 
Alatus compactus (Dwarf Flame Euonymus) 
Each $1.75, Three $4.75, Doz. $15.00 
In the Arnold Arboretum in Boston this shrub causes much comment 
each autumn for its unbelievable brilliance of foliage. Its compact 
growth, easy culture, and slow growth make it one of the outstanding 
shrubs for hedges as well as individual specimens in the garden. Its 
ultimate height is six feet. Be sure to plant one or more of them in your 
garden for a brilliant autumn foliage display. Does well in shade. 
Patens Each $1.15, Three $3.25, Doz. $11.50 
This is a broad, shapely shrub, 8 to 9 feet high at maturity, with large, 
vivid green, glossy foliage which hangs on almost all winter. In mild 
seasons the old foliage will be pushed off by the new growth in the 
spring. In late summer the plant is bespangled from top to bottom by 
drooping clusters of tiny greenish white, star-shaped flowers that are 
a godsend to the honey-bees which haunt them continuously. The 
fruits ripen to a preity shade of orange, but there are not nearly as 
many berries as might be supposed from the abundance of bloom. 
EUONYMUS EUROPAEUS 
Intermedia (Macrophylla) Each $2.50, Three $7.25, Doz. $23.50 
Also known as Fructo-coccineo. This upright growing small shrub 
(6 to 7 feet high) should be among the first twelve fruiting orna- 
mentals. The rigid branches are a perfect sight when carrying the 
extra large rose-red fruits which age to a brilliant red and are re- 
tained long after the leaves have dropped. Cut sprays placed in 
water will last six weeks or more. The tree is easily grown anywhere 
and free from “‘bugs’”’ and troubles. Excellent for the small garden. 
Fructo-albo Each $3.00, Three $8.50, Doz. $30.00 
This is the rare white fruiting form of the above. It has the same 
desirable characteristics with the additional charm of producing the 
white berries. 
FUCHSIA 
Most tender shrubs used for bedding or cool greenhouse decoration in 
the temperate zone. They are charming subjects for the shady garden, 
available in many colors and forms. 
Culture. Ordinary good loam, well drained. They do not like heavy, 
wet clay soils. Do well in shady places where it is difficult to flower other 
plants. Magellanica is a hardy variety, wintering over outdoors if the plants 
are protected with straw during the winter. 
Magellanica Three $1.25, Doz. $4.00, 100 $20.00 
This most interesting shrub came to us from the New York Botanical 
Garden, where it has proven entirely hardy. It is in bloom all summer 
long until stopped by frost. The ruby-red pendent flowers are pro- 
duced by the hundreds, flowering just as freely in full sun as in light 
shade. A most interesting plant for the flower border or rock garden, 
where it fits in perfectly, blooming all summer. Like all Fuchsias, they 
are especially adapted for shady locations. We advise protection any- 
where north of Philadelphia. 
Magellanica alba Three $1.50, Doz. $5.00, 100 $30.00 
Has the same habit of growth as Magellanica but the pendent flowers 
are blush-white. A charming variety which also is somewhat hardier. 
Riccartoni Three $1.50, Doz. $5.00, 100 $30.00 
Lovely pendent crimson-red and purple flowers. A hybrid of unknown 
origin. It is used as a boundary hedge in many places in the south 
and west of England and Ireland where moisture, fog, and a mild cool 
climate bring it to perfection. Here in Ohio it requires shade, the same 
as Magellanica and freezes down to ground level as does the Butterfly 
Bush.

FORSYTHIA 
The name “Golden Bell’’ has been attached to this family of hand- 
some shrubs, but nobody uses it, and in consequence, the name of William 
Forsyth, one of the greatest gardeners in history, is perpetuated in common 
speech through the Forsythias, which have become one of the most popular 
groups of srubs grown in gardens. They should be given a place were they 
can grow untrammeled by restricted space and without pruning, There is 
nothing so misera-le to look at as a Forsythia which has been clipped into 
some formal shape, or a line of them compelled to serve as a hedge; and 
there is nothing more beautiful and more expressive of springtime than the 
early grace of a Forsythia allowed to develop naturally according to its 
own sweet will. 
Ovata Each $1.25, Three $3.50, Doz. $12.50 
(Korea.) The best form is compact growing, seldom more than 4 
feet high and it is probably the prettiest of the family. The branches 
bear charming campanulate bright yellow, scented flowers during Feb- 
ruary and March, even in severe weather. 
FORSYTHIA, SPRING GLORY 
This new Forsythia is without question the loveliest of all the 
Golden Bells. 
When seen in bloom, it is a sight not easily forgotten, its 
large pale yellow flowers completely cover the branches in such 
masses that they literally bend with their weight. 
It would not be far amiss to say that it produces twice the 
number of blossoms of the common Forsythias. Further, the pale 
yellow color is very pleasing and brilliant, infinitely more attrac- 
tive and cheerful than that of the varieties now in general use. 
If you desire a brilliant and cheerful display in your garden in 
early spring, plant a few Forsythia Spring Glory. There is noth- 
ing which will make you forget winter as quickly nor announce 
spring as flamboyantly. 
Each $2.00, Three $5.75, Doz. $20.00 

Hydrangea 
HYPERICUM - St. John’s Wort 
Attractive and charming low growing, summer-flowering | shrubs. 
Their brilliant flowers are beautifully formed and grow on slender branches 
from early summer until stopped by frost. Excellent subjects for the flower 
border or in the foreground of taller shrubs, as well as for ground covering. 
Calycinum Each $0.60, Three $1.50, Doz. $5.00, 100 $30.00 
This is a most valuable variety because it can also be used as a 
ground cover for both sunny and semi-shady places. The under- 
ground runners are produced so freely as to completely cover the 
ground; at the tops the golden yellow flowers shine like jewels. Its 
height is about 12 to 18 inches. We recommend this as one of the 
best and hardiest. 
Henryi Each $0.60, Three $1.50, Doz. $5.00 
A dwarf, spreading shrub with large, showy, golden yellow flowers. In 
very cold winters the tops freeze back, which is of no consequence as 
be Dey growth is rapid and flowers even more freely. Ultimate height 
eet. 
Moserianum ~ Each $0.60, Three $1.50, Doz. $5.00 
A most desirable border shrub about 20 inches high, of free and 
graceful habit, producing long, slender stems, drooping, apparently from 
the weight of the flowers and buds, although the flowers face so none 
of their beauty is lost. Color a rich golden yellow, and bloom con-_ 
tinuously the entire season.
