WAYFARING TREE 
(Viburnum Lantana). Beautiful lantana- 
like leaves, gray-green in color, on up- 
right branches. Bush is covered with 
white flowers in May and June, followed 
by clusters of berries, coloring unequally 
from crimson to black. Grows 12 to 15 
ft. tall at maturity. A charmingly deco- 
rative shrub in any location. Strong, 
2-yr,, 18 to 24 in. bushes, only 
35c¢ each; 3 for 90c. 
WITCH HAZEL 
(Hamamelis Vernalis). Very few shrubs 
bloom in the late autumn, but that is 
the time when the Witch Hazel displays 
its brilliant yellow flowers. Its blooms 
last over a long period, followed by in- 
teresting fruits that first appear before 
the last blossoms fade. Often it is still 
blooming when the first snows arrive; 
but it is perfectly hardy, and is never 
injured by the coldest winter weather. 
Not merely an interesting novelty, but a 
valuable addition to any shrub planting. 
Husky, 18 to 24 in. bushes, 35c¢ each; 
3 for 90c. 
WEIGELA EVA RATHKE 
(Diervilla). Most conspicuous variety of 
all Weigelas, having deep carmine-red 
flowers. Coarse, thrifty grower, produc- 
ing the bulkiest and most dominating 
show of bloom from July throughout 
the summer. Bushy, 2-yr., 18 to 24 in. 
grade, 45c each; 2 for 75c. 
WEIGELA FLORIBUNDA 
(Diervilla). A beautiful shrub, with large, 
crimson flowers in profuse clusters ap- 
pearing at ends of short branches, al- 
most hiding the glossy green leaves. 
Blooms early in the season, con- 
tinuing throughout the summer. An ex- 
cellent shrub for either group or speci- 
men planting. Strong, 2 yr., 18 to 24 in. 
bushes, 40c each; 2 for 70c. 
WYOMING, April 27, 1942. 
Dear Sirs: The shipment of plants and shrubs ar- 
rived today and they were very good. Full of life, 
good size, and large, vigorous roots. Was well 
‘pleased. They are fur better than two other ship- 
ments received from other nurseries this season, 
Also saved considerable money, even after paying 
express charges over the much greater shipping dis- 
tance. Shall recommend you to any one wishing to 
purchase good strong nursery stock that just can’t 
help but grow. JOHN L. FUNK.

YELLOW WEIGELA 
(Diervilla Lutea). An uncommon and un- 
usual member of the Weigela family, 
and one you will want to make your 
collection complete. You've seen Wei- 
gelas in red and varying shades of pink, 
but here is one with a pure yellow 
flower. 
Leaves have a decidedly reddish 
cast throughout the summer, which 
becomes more pronounced as 
autumn approaches. Makes a -full, 
well rounded bush of good form, 
but of somewhat smaller size than 
other varieties. Holds its 
foliage well into the late fall. 
Strong, 18 to 24 in. bushes, 
while they last, only 45c each; 
2 for 75c. 
VARIEGATED WEIGELA 
(Diervilla rosea nana yariegata). One 
of the most striking in appear- 
ance of all the Weigelas. Covered 
with dwarf, variegated leaves which 
are broadly outlined in creamy 
white. Bush is covered with bell- 
shaped pink flowers. Not only 
beautiful when blooming, but made 
strikingly attractive throughout the 
summer and fall by the unusual- 
ness of these variegated colors of 
its leaves. Grows only about 3 ft. 
tall. Sturdy, 18 to 24 in. bushes, 
priced low at 40c each; 2 for 70c.
