leaves on this low growing bush are very numer- 
ous and have a blue tinge. An excellent shrub 
where space is limited, it takes well to clipping. |

French Lilacs 
Everyone admires lilac flowers, but no one likes 
the suckering habit of the old kind. These new 
French Lilaes do not send out those pesky suck- 
ers, the plants bloom longer, and the flowers are 
larger. The flowers last twice as long as the com- 
mon ones do. The plants we have on hand are 
ready to bloom, have an excellent root system 
and should be sure to grow. Plant lilacs deep, at 
least three inches deeper than grown in the nur- 
sery. We dig French Lilacs with ball of dirt. ©

. Peonies 
No other flowers -will ‘give as much delight and 
satisfaction for as little care as do peonies. They 
will, of course, do better with better care. They 
like cultivation, and if possible should be planted 
not too close to trees. Depth of planting is im- 
portant. If. planted deeper than two inches they 
may not bloom, if too shallow they will dry out. 
Water thoroughly when planting. After the dirt 
has settled, lay a board across the hole, then allow 
two inches between top of root and board. Price 
of first grade roots, white, red, or pink, $1 each; 
one of each color for $2.50, postpaid.
