English Ftawthorns 
(Crataegus Oxyacantha) 
The English Haw or Hawthorn is a lovely flowering shrub or small tree 
about 15 feet high, with spreading branches and stout spines. The leaves 
are broad, the 3 to 5 lobes much toothed. Its flowers are in large clusters 
and produced in immense quantities. The fruits are scarlet. They are 
especially well suited for the small garden or as specimens.on the lawn 
where a Maple would be too big and create too much shade.

Has clusters of flowers of a very pretty pale pink shade. 
Paul’s Scarlet English Hawthorn Each $3.00, Three $8.50, Doz. $32.00

ornamental trees in existence. Foolproof and hardy; sure blooming. It 
is a joy to see it each spring. 
Crimson Glory (1945 Novelty) Each $4.00, Three $11.00 
This magnificent Hybrid Thorn grows into a medium sized tree about 
15 to 18 feet high. Makes a shapely head and has deep green foli- 
age. In spring it is very attractive with its many big clusters of white 
blooms. But in early autumn it really is a sight to behold when the 
immense clusters of giant berries turn a brilliant red. In our opinion 
it is even more spectacular than the well known and popular Moun- 
tain Ash. The fruit remains on the tree well into the winter. A rare, 
beautiful and unusual small tree you will enjoy in your garden for 
many many years. Only a limited number available of this novelty.

are extremely useful for planting in front of evergreens or as edgings. The 
small foliage is densely arranged around the wiry little stems, and either 
when in full bloom or in midwinter makes a very pretty picture. :

a large part of the United States it is called “Shrub” or “Shrub Bush” 
without any other qualification. In some places it is referred to as the 
““Sweet-scented Shrub,’ the ‘‘Sweet Shrub,’’ or the “Strawberry Shrub.” 
The handsome, dark red-brown flowers are produced in early spring. 
They are deliciously fragrant, especially when wilted, and schoolboys 
frequently fill their pockets with them, carrying them about until they 
are shriveled husks. The curious large pods which follow are full of 
smooth, brown seeds, like coffee beans, which are elusively aromatic 
when rubbed in the hands and often used as counters in children’s 
games. During the summer, the plant is neat and very handsome, with 
glossy, corrugated foliage. It grows 4 to 5 feet high, and in time will 
spread over an area equally broad. 
CERCIS 
Chinensis Each $3.00, Three $8.50, Doz. $32.00 
This charming brilliantly spring-flowering shrub is a Chinese counter- 
part of the American Native Redbud. It flowers at the same time, but 
the quantity and quality of its flowers far surpass those of our common 
wild form. It is shrublike in growth, and when in bloom, every branch 
and twig is covered with thousands of bright purple blossoms almost 
double the size of the common variety and noticeably darker. You will 
want this in your garden surely. Ultimate height from 6 to 8 feet.
