Deval of Ilex Convexa 
ILEX - Holly 
Convexa (Crenata bullata) 
12 to 15 inch Each $2.00, Three $5.75, Doz. $20.00 
15 to 18 inch Each $3.00, Three $8.50, Doz. $30.00 
This is one of the choicest of evergreens and was introduced into this 
country in 1919 by E. H. (Chinese) Wilson. It has taken many years of 
effort to produce this little beauty in quantities, but now it’s here for 
you to enjoy. It is very bushy, has shiny dark green, boxwood-like foli- 
age somewhat convex and it grows about 4 feet high and 3 feet across. 
The glossy leaves are so profuse that twigs are invisible. Left to itself it 
grows “informally formal’’ and blends beautifully with other evergreens. 
As a small “accent’’ plant it is faultless. For small hedges it is a jewel, 
particularly in cold climates where boxwood is impossible, but it is much 
too rare yet to be used for that purpose. An absolute ‘’must’’ for every 
garden. Does well in light shade or full sun and is equally happy on 
alkaline or acid soil, and last but not least, it is as hardy as an oak. 
Glabra Each $2.00, Three $5.75, Doz. $20.00 
The Inkberry is a loose, spreading shrub, 4 to 5 feet high at maturity, 
with shining dark green leaves and a profusion of glittering black 
berries through the winter. It is an excellent plant for hedges in shady 
situations. It may also be effectively used as individual plants mixed 
with evergreens or in front of the shrubbery border. 
Serrata (Sieboldi) Each $1.10, Three $3.00, Doz. $10.00 
This is the deciduous Holly. It is slow growing and ultimately reaches 
a height of about 10 feet. In winter, after the leaves have been shed, 
it is one of the most showy shrubs because of the persistent brilliant 
red berries which hang on practically all winter. They make a cheerful 
showing outside against the snow and are charming for cutting and 
winter decorations.

Kolkwitzia Amabilis 




Fuchsia Magellanica Alba (See page 156) 
KERRIA 
Japonica flora plena Each $1.50, Three $4.00, Doz. $15.00 
Double Kerria is sometimes called the Globe Flower because the choice 
double golden flowers have a ball-like shape not unlike the button 
chrysanthemums. The plant grows vigorously and attains a maximum 
height of 4 to 5 feet. It is bushy in habit with many bright green 
stems, attractive all winter. Give it a sunny location in front of the 
border and its golden yellow blooms all summer will be a pleasure. 
The flowers last well in water and are excellent for cutting. 
KOLKWITZIA - Beauty Bush 
Amabilis Each $1.25, Three $3.50, Doz. $12.00 
A handsome flowering shrub which came from China. While upright in 
growth its branches at the ends are arching, almost pendulent, so that 
they cover the ground about them and never look “leggy’’ and bare. It 
is perfectly hardy anywhere, has excellent foliage and in June is a 
fountain of bell-shaped, light pink flowers not unlike the Weigela. 
Grows anywhere and does exceedingly well in dry, sandy, poor soil. 
Kolkwitzias do not bloom the first year or two after planting. Ultimate 
height about 7 to 8 feet. 
LABURNUM - Golden Chain 
Vossi Each $3.50, Three $9.75, Doz. $35.00 
Long-clustered Golden Chain. Small tree-like shrub with green bark 
and foliage like exaggerated clover leaves. Flowers are pure golden 
yellow and formed exactly like those of Wisteria. The hanging clusters 
are 18 to 20 inches long and are borne very profusely in late spring. 
Very beautiful. Usually bloom the first year after planting. 
LAGERSTROEMIA INDICA - Crapemyrtle 
(Not hardy North. Offered for our southern customers only.) 
Crapemyrtle will sometimes remain dormant, not putting out foliage for 
a year. Keep the plants watered and soil loosened. Severe pruning is 
recommended to keep plants in shape. This should be done in February. 
This popular free-flowering shrub is perhaps one of the loveliest plants of 
the South. Its magnificent flowers throughout the hot summer give to 
gardens a gaiety not possible to duplicate with anything else. All are hardy 
south of Baltimore. 
Wm. Toovey Each $1.25, Three $3.50, Doz. $12.00 
A magnificent new variety with huge clusters of watermelon-red 
flowers. Distinct and attractive foliage help make this a beautiful 
flowering shrub. 
White Beauty Each $1.25, Three $3.50, Doz. $12.00 
A fine white-flowered form with beautiful lacy white flower clusters— 
a perfect foil for Wm. Toovey.
