useful. 
In all these places flowering shrubs are adaptable, and 
From our fields this year we shall take the finest shrubs possible to grow—large, well 
developed, with good roots, and not by any means like the shrubs sold on ‘‘bargain’’ 
counters, which in many cases are of unknown origin. 
In fact, Hillenmeyer shrubs carry 
several canes, and only the small sizes can be sent by parcel post. 
The figures following the name indicate height at maturity.

Acanthopanax 
Acanthopanax pentaphyllum (Five-Leaved 
Aralia). 6 to 8 feet. Yellow flowers in 
June. A -rugged shrub, thriving under 
trees, in shade and in cities where few

Acer - Maple 
Acer palmatum atropurpureum (Blood-Leaf 
Japanese Maple). 6 to 8 feet. This fre- 
quently is listed under trees but is more 
of a shrub with us. Its smooth, s!ender 
branches are covered with deeply lobed 
or serrated, purple leaves. Very attrac- 
tive. Prefers a cool soil which does not 
dry out so easily. Each

Aesculus 
Aesculus pavia (Red Buckeye). A shrub 
form of our native Buckeye, with showy 
red spikes produced early in the spring. 
Foliage not always the best but well 
worth its place in any planting because 
of its striking effect when in bloom.

Red-Leaf Barberry 
Berberis thunbergi atropurpurea. Resembles 
the Japanese Barberry in growth, but the 
foliage is brilliant blood-red in spring. 
The color holds all summer in sun, but in 
shady places it becomes a_ beautiful 
bronzy green. Its winter charm is en- 
hanced by red berries that remain until 
spring. Few shrubs attract so much at- 
tention, or add so much color to a dull 
border. We consider it one of the best 
newer plants, and our stock is strona 
and vigorous. Each
