FLOWERING SHRUBS 
This listing of hardy shrubs is much abbreviated; but it represents a careful 
selection of varieties that we consider most desirable for general use in home-grounds 
planting. If you do not find something that you particularly want, it is quite likely 
that we have it, and we shall be glad to quote you or give other information. 
Red-Leaved Barberry 
(Berberis thunbergi atropurpurea.) This bright- 
hued Barberry is an answer to the quest for 
color in shrub foliage. It is a rugged, low- 
growing bush, suitable for accent in the border 
where its red leaves contrast pleasingly with 
the greens of other shrubs. It also serves as 
a striking hedge-plant, if you want “something 
different.” 75c each; 10 for $6.00. 

Butterflybush 
The Gorgeous Azaleas 
Add the masses of flaming color of Azaleas to 
your garden or shrub-border, and lift it out of 
the commonplace. They grow equally well in 
sunlight or shade, preferring a moderately 
moist, cool soil. 
Orcuip AzALEA (Azalea poukhanensis). A 
tovely orchid-lavender Azalea that is really low- 
growing and of compact type, with a very 
attractive foliage. It produces an abundance of 
fragrant orchid-like flowers from middle to 
late May. An outstanding hardy Azalea. 
$2.75 each 
Torcu AZALEA (Azalea kaempferi). This blos- 
soms about the middle of May, its colors rang- 
ing from bright orange-red to glowing salmon- 
pink. $3.25 each. 
PINKSHELL AZALEA (Azalea vaseyi). Of more 
slender growth than the others, this is a deli- 
cate shell-pink in color, blooming in early May. 
Its foliage turns brilliant scarlet in the fall. 
$3.00 each 
Butterflybush 
or Summer Lilac. The term “Butterflybush,” 
the familiar designation of these lovely sum- 
mer-flowering shrubs, suggests the brightly- 
colored butterflies that hover about the bush 
on warm, sunny days, and for which it seems 
to hold a peculiar charm. Except on Cape Cod 
and in certain other favored localities, these 
shrubs should be cut down each winter nearly 
to the ground, after which they recover their 
full height in the season’s growth. Give them 
a sheltered, sunny spot, with good soil. 
BUTTERFLYBUSH “CHARMING.” The long sprays 
of lavender-pink flowers make this shrub a 
favorite. Like the other Buddleias it blooms 
from mid-summer until frost. Height, five to 
six feet. 75c each. 
B., “ILE pe FrANcE.” Vivid, rosy purple, strong 
growth; a true Butterflybush that is unequalled 
as a garden plant as well as for planting where 
shrubbery growth is desired. Its flowers are 
fragrant, good for cutting. 75c each. 
OxEYE BUTTERFLYBUSH (Buddleia davidi mag- 
nifica). Lavender-lilac flowers in long, full 
spikes, each floret with an orange-yellow “eye” 
that gives this variety its name. 75c each.
