DEUTZIA 
All Deutzias are showy flowering shrubs of very bushy habit. They 
have many stems rising directly from the root, arching upward and outward, 
thickly covered with foliage which almost completely disappears in May 
under a superabundance of panicles of small, frilled, bell-like flowers. They 
are hardy throughout most of the country. 
Gracilis Each $0.75, Three $2.00, Doz. $7.50 
Seldom more than 2 or 3 feet high. This is one of the prettiest and 
most graceful of all the Deutzias. The plant makes a fountain-like 
bush attractive at all times of the year. In May it is covered with 
an astonishing profusion of delicate snowy white flowers. It does well 
in light shade and is well adapted for low edgings to walks or paths, 
excellent in clumps in the foreground in the border. 
Lemoine Each $0.75, Three $2.00, Doz. $7.50 
Lemoine’s Deutzia is a hybrid variety and not unlike Deutzia Gracilis. 
It is even more floriferous. The flowers are pocked into short, chubby 
sprays. The color is creamy white and quite distinct. 
DEUTZIA CRENATA ERECTA 
New Snow-White Upright Growing Deutzia 
Each $1.50, Three $4.00, Doz. $15.00 
This beautiful strong, upright growing hybrid came to us from France 
a few years ago. It produces large, single, milk-white flowers in hand- 
some pyramidal clusters. Shown in England a few years ago, it received 
an Award of Merit from the Royal Horticultural Society. Its upright 
growth and modest height, 3 to 4 feet, make it an excellent shrub for 
foreground planting. Last, but not least, is the enormous amount of 
flowers which completely cover the bush at flowering time. 

EUONYMUS 
Alatus compactus (Dwarf Flame Euonymus) 
Each $2.00, Three $5.75, Doz. $20.00 
In the Arnold Arboretum in Boston this shrub causes much comment 
each autumn for its unbelievable brilliance of foliage. Its compact 
growth, easy culture, and slow growth make it one of the outstanding 
shrubs for hedges as well as individual specimens in the garden. Its 
ultimate height is six feet. Be sure to plant one or more of them in your 
garden for a brilliant autumn foliage display. Does well in shade. 
EUONYMUS EUROPAEUS 
Intermedia (Macrophylla) Each $2.00, Three $5.75, Doz. $20.00 
Also known as Fructo-coccineo. This upright growing small shrub 
(6 to 7 feet high) should be among the first twelve fruiting orna- 
mentals. The rigid branches are a perfect sight when carrying the 
extra large rose-red fruits which age to a brilliant red and are re- 
tained long after the leaves have dropped. Cut sprays placed in 
water will last six weeks or more. The tree is easily grown anywhere 
and free from ‘bugs’ and troubles. Excellent for the small garden. 
Fructo-albo Each $3.00, Three $8.50, Doz. $30.00 
This is the rare white fruiting form of the above. It has the same 
desirable characteristics with the additional charm of producing the 
white berries.

Bushy plants, 15-18 inches $0.75 $2.00 $7.50 $55.00 
Bushy plants, 18-24 inches EQ) Ay OU EXOD 
This is one of the finest and easiest grown evergreen shrubs. Compact 
and shapely, and ultimately about six feet tall. Its foliage is rich green, 
somewhat like that of Euonymus Vegetus and remains on the plant 
Practically throughout the entire winter and is quickly replaced by 
shiny new foliage. In spring it is a plant par excellence for growing 
in shady places, under tall trees or in sunless corners. It makes a fine 
hedge and can be pruned any way to suit. Blends beautifully with 
evergreens, grows equally well on acid or alkaline soils and is iron-clad 
hardy. In autumn numerous orange berries add to its charm. Trans- 
plants easily either in fall or spring. Does excellently in shade.

Fuchsia Magellanica Alba 
FUCHSIA 
Most tender shrubs used for bedding or cool greenhouse decoration in 
the temperate zone. They are charming subjects for the shady garden, 
available in many colors and forms. 
Culture. Ordinary good loam, well drained. They do not like heavy, 
wet clay soils. Do well in shady places} where it is difficult to flower other 
plants. Magellanica is a hardy variety, wintering over outdoors if the plants 
are protected with straw during the winter. 
Magellanica Three $1.45, Doz. $4.75, 100 $25.00 
This most interesting shrub came to us from the New York Botanical 
Garden, where it has proven entirely hardy. It is in bloom all summer 
long until stopped by frost. The ruby-red pendent flowers are pro- 
duced by the hundreds, flowering just as freely in full sun as in light 
shade. A most interesting plant for the flower border or rock garden, 
where it fits in perfectly, blooming all summer. Like all Fuchsias, they 
are especially adapted for shady locations. We advise protection any- 
where north of Philadelphia. 
Magellanica alba Each $0.60, Three $1.50, Doz. $5.00 
Has the same habit of growth as Magellanica but the pendent flowers 
are blush-white. A charming variety which also is somewhat hardier. 
Riccartoni Each $0.60, Three $1.50, Doz. $5.00 
Lovely pendent crimson-red and purple flowers. A hybrid of unknown 
origin. It is used as a boundary hedge in many places in the south 
and west of England and Ireland where moisture, fog, and a mild cool 
climate bring it to perfection. Here in Ohio it requires shade, the same 
as Magellanica and freezes down to ground level as does the Butterfly 
Bush.
