DECIDUOUS FLOWERING SHRUBS 
OSING their leaves in winter, they are, nevertheless, indispensable for 
all mexpensive plantings. After their main flowering season we could 
not do without their colorful foliage and brilliant berries, together with 
their colored twigs and branches in winter; all are perfectly hardy everywhere. 
Our young shrubs, averaging 3 feet m height before pruning, are just right 
age for successful transplanting. The desire for immediate effect is sometimes 
unwise because large, overgrown shrubs do not take hold readily and after two or 
three years nothing is gained, whereas younger plants take hold with no set back.
