Improved Carlesi. .Waxy blush-white and delicately fragrant, the 
flowers of this new fragrant Viburnum are produced in early spring 
when the leaves are unfolding. They form round, domed: clusters, 
and the gardenia-like fragrance is so sweet as to pervade a large 
area, The plant grows about 6 feet high and 4 to 5 feet in diameter. 
It likes a well drained, sunny place, with plenty of moisture. This 
is a new jewel for the garden—a real aristocrat. For the small 
garden, where there is room only for the choicest shrubs, the one 
Viburnum above all others that should be grown, is Viburnum Burk- 
woodi. Foliage brilliant in autumn, shiny dark green all summer. 

Carlesi Each $3.00, Three $8.50, Doz. $30.00 
Waxy white, deliciously fragrant flowers in early spring when the leaves 
are unfolding. This fragrant Snowball is a great favorite. It is very 
hardy, easily grown and does well in light shade, as well as in full sun. 
Dilatatum Each $1.00, Three $2.75, Doz. $10.00 
This fine Viburnum grows to a height of about 7 or 8 feet. It is con- 
sidered one of the finest of shrubs. The many valuable characteristics 
of this plant place it near the top of the list of Viburnums. It is of 
moderate growth and neat compact habit, bearing 5-inch clusters of 
white flowers in early June. In the fall it has few equals in adding 
color to the garden with its heavy, large clusters of scarlet berries. Does 
well in full sun or semi-shade. The plants we ship are about 3 feet tall. 
Tomentosum Each $1.25, Three $3.25, Doz. $12.50 
If all the other Viburnums were thrown into the discard, this one would 
justify the family. It is a superb flowering shrub and the spectacle of 
a good Tomentosum in bloom is a sight not ever to be forgotten. In early 
June the horizontal branches become perfect mosaics of wheel-like 
clusters ringed with dazzling white flowers, with spidery sunburst cen- 
ters, resembling a fall of snow. Ultimate height 8 feet. 
Tomentosum plicatum Each $1.50, Three $4.00, Doz. $15.00 
The Japanese Snowball has its pure white flowers arranged in a perfectly 
round ball 3 to 4 inches across, Its clean foliage is quite similar to the 
Tomentosum. Much neater and in every way superior to the common 
Snowball which is usually covered with aphids. It makes a commanding 
specimen and there are few shrubs handsomer than this when well grown. 


VIBURNUM OPULUS NANUM 
The Hedge Viburnum 
A dwarf, stubby plant never over two feet high, particularly well 
adapted for edgings and hedges in wet or heavy clay ground where it 
is difficult for other plants to thrive. Does well in light shade. It is ex- 
tremely hardy. Can be clipped or left natural as desired. In either case 
it grows into a fine compact and low hedge which requires no care.

Opulus Xanthocarpum (Apricot-Fruited Cranberry Bush) 
Each $2.00, Three $5.75, Doz. $20.00 
This makes a handsome bush 5 to 7 feet high. It is particularly attrac- 
tive from July to December after when its beautiful blossoms are re- 
placed by immense clusters of \-inch apricot-yellow fruits. The clus- 
ters of berries are many and heavy, and create a beautiful show against 
the rich green foliage. The heavily fruited branches may be cut for 
indoor decoration. They combine stunningly with Gladioli, Dahlias, or 
Chrysanthemums. The clusters of fruits retain their beautiful apricot- 
yellow tint for six weeks or more. Easily grown, hardy as an oak. May 
be planted in fall or spring. The plants we ship are about 3 feet tall.

distinctive appearance. Fits in well in the border and is also suitable 
as a lawn plant. Its form, foliage and lilac flowers are very unusual.
