FLOWERING SHRUBS 
Indispensable for small homes 

Wiegela, Bristol Ruby 
Wiegela, Bristol Ruby—(Pat. No. 4692)—The originators 
of this variety describe it as follows: “A better ‘Eva Rathke’ 
has long been needed—Bristol Ruby is just that. Hardier and 
more vigorous, it makes a shapely thrifty plant with attrac- 
tive rich green foliage. Color is a soft ruby-red shading to 
garnet-crimson; extremely pleasing in effect and without 
harsh tone. Attaining a height of 6 to 7 feet at maturity, it 
makes a perfectly formed, well-rounded specimen requiring 
very little pruning because it flowers well from old wood; 
no die-back or uneven growth at any time. The original is 
blooming in its twelfth year with never a miss or off season. 
Excellent reports from Vermont and other difficult regions 
fully substantiate our own estimate of its unusual hardiness. 
Bristol Ruby is definitely superior to Eva Rathke in every 
respect and customers are quick to note its better qualities.”
