wreath) and most attractive, so that the plant has 
always some beauty in addition to its Green foliage.

THE NEW FIRETHORN “WILMA” 
Altho we have offered this variety of Firethorn, or 
Pyracantha for several years, it continues to grow in 
popularity, and each year the demand for the plant 
increases. 
This new variety was introduced by us as a beau- 
tiful shrub. Its masses of large red berries in the Fall 
and Winter months add a wealth of color to any 
planting. In the Spring the blossoms are striking— 
much like the Bridlewreath in flower. It has many uses 
in- the landscape planting, always pretty and very 
colorful.
