Flowering Quinees (Continued) 
No. 350. B. The huge flowers are salmon at 
first, deepening with age to rosy red. We 
still haven’t been able to decide whether this 
may not be a Cathayensis Hybrid but if so 
it is the only one we have had in this color. 
No. 352. C. The classification of this one 
is doubtful; it might be a C. H. Flowers 
are scarlet. Heavy bloomer. 
*DC-12. DE. The globular buds open to 
enormous cupped flowers which are occa- 
sionally just over 2 inches wide. Color is 
shrimp pink tending toward orange with 
age. or by HH: CC. vAzalea~Pink2O18. 21t ms 
an exceptionally free bloomer even on small, 
young plants. From present indications this 
is very likely to be named after a little fur- 
ther testing. 
DC-177 Ge‘ Gerise pink? #( HA Ga G.: Geram- 
um Lake 20/2-3.) Late; blooms heavily.

are bicolored, light and dark pink. It was 
this particular variety that received the 
AGE RES: 
*Fire. CDE. This is possibly the finest red 
in this group of hybrids and is now offered 
by us for the first time. The color is very 
brilliant; the petals overlap, making a large, 
full flower; the plant is vigorous and pro- 
ductive. It starts to bloom early in the 
season and has three successive crops which 
here keep it flowering steadily from early 
January till late March. This is the. par- 
ticular variety that was given the A.M.C.H.S. 
Masterpiece. ACD. Brilliant rosy red. Much 
like Fire. It is hard to say which is better. 
Mt. Everest. BCD. White: tipped lavender; 
old flowers are flushed pink. 
Pink Beauty. CD. Pink shaded rose. Very 
early and very beautiful.

No. 317. B. Deep rose; medium early. This

be named and introduced there by George 
Jackman & Son, Woking. 
No. 322. BC. Rose and pink; very early. 
No. 326. DE. Brilliant rose red. The earli- 
est bloomer in this group.

DR-51. BCE. Flowers are vivid bright 
red. Blooms very freely even on young 
plants. Vigorous grower. A very promising 
second generation hybrid. 
Other Deciduous Shrubs 
ACER palmatum, JAPANESE MAPLE (5). These shrubs or small trees are widely es- 
teemed for their slow growth and attractive foliage. In hot, sunny climes they need partial 
shade, elsewhere any exposure. One of the finest is: 
Cutleaf Purple. As it is of weeping habit we top graft it on straight stems which gives a 
beautiful result although they look a little queer at first. Gallon can 3 ft. stem with 2 year 
head $3.00, 3 ft. stem with one year head $2.50; pot grown 2 ft. stem $2.00.
