It is not possible at this time to 
build a home without much inconven- 
lence and. delay, but you can improve 
the appearance of the old home by 
modernizing your planting. No doubt 
many new varieties have been made 
available since the old planting was 
made and some of the old shrubs and 
trees have served their usefulness. So 
great improvement could be accom- 
plished by remodeling and _ reviving 
the old planting—putting in newer 
and better varieties, properly arranged. 
SHRUBS > 
This important class of plant material has many uses in modern planting. We can hardly conceive 
a garden without a shrub border, some specimens, and possibly the low growing types used in the ounda- 
tion planting. Improvements in varieties have extended the blooming season, as well as afforded a 
more beautiful combination of colors. Shrubs, as a rule, are inexpensive, easily transplanted and grown. 
We offer the following collection of choice varieties. 
ALMOND FLOWERING (Prunus japonica florepleno). Dwarf shrub. Double pink flowers appear 
ing in Spring in masses, covering the plant. 18-24 in. 85c., each; 2-3 ft., $1.25 each. 
ALTHAEA — ROSE-OF-SHARON (Hibiscus ALTHAEA coelestis. A new, single blue. More 
syriacus). While the Althaea is an old shrub, dwari than the old variety, but most outstand- 
few realize and appreciate its usefulness and 
beauty. At its best at 2 time when the shrub 
border most needs a touch of color, blossoming 
in July and continuing until frost. An ideal 
shrub for backgrounds or shrub borders. Grows 
ing because of its clear blue flowers resembling in 
color the Morning Glory. (See dllustration.)

of all shrubs. Glossy foliage which is 
evergreen in Virginia excepting severe 
Winters—making it eligible for classi- 
fication as a broad-leaved evergreen, 
as well as ashrub. So we are listing it

evergreens. Grows toa height of 4 to 6 
feet making it ideal for foundation 
planting; also used for hedges and 
shrub borders. Small, light pink, tubu- 
lar blossoms appear in July and con- 
tinue until frost. One of the most beau- 
tiful flowering shrubs, blooming at a
