Welch’s Shrubs Add Style and Dignity to Your Home 
TARTARIAN HONEYSUCKLE. A very popular orna- 
mental hedge which speaks for itself. Perfectly hardy, 
of upright bush form, growing to a height of 12 to 14 
feet at maturity, making the very best windbreak and 
snow fence. Its grayish white wood is beautiful at 
all seasons of the year. Its glossy leathery foliage, 
so thick that a chicken can't get through it, its ability 
to stand heavy trimming and cutting back, makes it 
most desirable for hedging purposes. Its hardiness, 
its rapid growth, its immense number of pink and red 
flowers coming early in May, are followed by a big 
crop of red berries that last until early winter and 
make a paradise for birds. A favorite shrub, absolutely 
hardy in any portion of the United States. Will grow 
with little or no care and lasts a lifetime. Every home 
should have a hedge, driveway or windbreak of this 
robust and beautiful bush honeysuckle. One of the 
favorite shrubs. 18 to 24 in., 15c each: $10.00 per 100, 
postpaid.
