Spring tield Mass. 

Philadelphus Lemoinei, Glacier 
This hybrid is a strong, erect grower 
of medium height. The clusters of 
double white flowers, set in panicles, 
have the appearance of one enormous 
flower. A very choice variety. 
P. virginalis 
Medium height and irregular growth, 
but rated by many as the finest of all 
Mock-Oranges. The first burst of bloom 
comes in June when the large, semi- 
double, pure white flowers fairly weigh 
the branches down. The tips of the new 
shoots bear flowers continuously 
throughout the summer. A truly re- 
markable variety and no doubt one of 
the best. 
PHYSOCARPUS opulifolius Ninebark 
Vigorous, wide-spreading, tall shrub 
that should be given plenty of room in 
the shrub border. Its attractive foliage 
makes it adapted for screen purposes. 
Grows anywhere, enduring even partial 
shade. 
P. opulifolius aureus Golden Ninebark 
Similar to the preceding variety, but 
at first when the leaves appear they are 
bright yellow, later changing to golden 
yellow. 
PRUNUS glandulosa 
Double Pink Almond 
One of the most charming early-flower- 
ing shrubs, producing very double, rose 
colored flowers in great profusion in the 
early spring. Maximum height, about 6 
feet. 
P. glandulosa sinensis 
Double White Almond 
Same as the preceding variety except 
that it has beautiful double white 
flowers. 

Rosa Hugonis 
Poa ees 
Prunus tomentosa Nanking Cherry 
Compact, tree-like bush with upright 
branches. In the early spring it is cov- 
ered with tiny pink buds which turn 
white after they open. The miniature 
red cherries appearing in late summer 
are soon removed by the birds. A very 
neat shrub that should be more popular. 
P. triloba Flowering Plum 
Small, shrubby tree covered with small, 
double, bright pink flowers before the 
leaves appear. This is an old-fashioned 
favorite that will brighten up any shrub 
planting. 
RHODOTYPOS kerrioides Jetbead 
Of medium height, with single white 
flowers followed by shiny black fruit. A 
graceful shrub with handsome bright 
green foliage that grows well in semi- 
shade. Maximum height, 6 feet. 
RHUS canadensis Fragrant Sumac 
A spreading shrub about 3 feet tall. 
Conspicuous yellow flowers appear in 
early spring. The thick, fragrant foliage 
turns dark crimson in autumn. A good 
cover-plant for dry, rocky slopes. 
R. copallina Shining Sumac 
A taller-growing variety with beautiful 
shining dark green foliage which turns 
brilliant colors in the fall. Does well 
in dry locations. 
R. cotinus Smoke Tree 
Tall, bushy shrub bearing rather showy 
flowers followed by a peculiar seed- 
formation that resembles a_ greenish 
purple film of smoke. The handsome 
foliage turns brilliant shades in autumn.

Philadelphus 
ROSA Hugonis Hugonis Rose 
Extremely graceful, arching shrub 5 to 6 
feet tall. Dainty, refined foliage that is prac- 
tically hidden in May by a profusion of soft 
yellow, single, saucer-like flowers of delicate 
fragrance. Makes a hardy, handsome addi- 
tion to any shrub border. 
R. rugosa Rugosa Rose 
A sturdy, upright, medium-sized shrub with 
bristly branches and clean, glossy green, 
wrinkled foliage. The large, single, fragrant, 
red flowers of a soft, silky crepe-paper tex- 
ture appear in May and continue until Sep- 
tember. Its brilliant fall colors and bright 
red fruits make this variety attractive at all 
seasons. Absolutely hardy. 
R. rugosa alba White Rugosa Rose 
Same as the preceding variety except that it 
has large, white flowers. Both varieties grow 
exceptionally well when planted 
at the seashore. 
RUBUS odoratus 
Flowering Raspberry 
A vigorous-growing shrub up to 6 
feet, that does well in the shade. 
Large, neat foliage and clusters 
of Shows rose- purple flowers. Fine 
for planting in shady woods. 
SAMBUCUS nigra aurea 
Golden Elder 
Tall, coarse-growing shrub with at- 
tractive golden yellow foliage and 
cherry-red fruits. Plant in masses 
in rich soil; it makes striking foli- 
age color contrasts in the large 
shrub border.
