Halesia Tetraptera 
DEUTZIA 
All Deutzias are showy flowering shrubs of very bushy habit. They 
have many stems rising directly from the root, arching upward and outward, 
thickly covered with foliage which almost completely disappears in May 
under a superabundance of panicles of small, frilled, bell-like flowers. They 
are hardy throughout most of the country. 
Gracilis Each $1.00, Three $2.75, Doz. $8.50 
Seldom more than 2 or 3-feet high. This is one of the prettiest and 
most graceful of-all the Deutzias. The plant makes a fountain-like 
bush attractive at all times of the year. In May it is covered with 
an astonishing profusion of delicate snowy white flowers. It does well 
in light shade and is well adapted for low edging to walks or paths, 
excellent in clumps in the foreground in the border. 
DEUTZIA CRENATA ERECTA 
New Snow-White Upright Growing Deutzia 
Each $1.25, Three $3.50, Doz. $12.00 
This beautiful, strong, upright growing hybrid came to us from France 
It produces large, single, milk-white flowers in hand- 
a few years ago. 
some pyramidal clusters. Shown in England a few years ago, it received 
an Award of Merit from the Royal Horticultural Society. Its upright 
growth and modest height, 3 to 4 feet, make it an excellent shrub for 
foreground planting. Last, but not least, is the enormous amount of 
flowers which completely cover the bush at flowering time. 
Thibet Each $1.50, Three $4.00, Doz. $15.00 
A shrub of medium and bushy growth about 3 to 4 feet high. In June 
is covered with white and lavender tinted flowers, in long open pyrami- 
dal clusters. This variety was found in Thibet a number of years ago 
and now offered for the first time in this country. 
HALESIA 
Tetraptera Each $1.25, Three $3.50, Doz. $12.00 
The Silver Bell or Snowdrop Tree, also sometimes called the Lily-of-the- 
Valley Tree, is a most attractive round-headed, bushy little tree with 
horizontal branches and rather ordinary foliage. Its beauty consists in 
the millions of small white bells which dangle in bewildering profusion 
from the lower side of the branchlets. Certainly no flowering tree is 
handsomer and daintier than the Silver Bell when in full bloom, and it is 
always an object of great interest and curiosity. 
Euonymus Patens 


Callicarpa Purpurea (See page 146) 
EUONYMUS 
Alatus compactus (Dwarf Flame Euonymus) 
Each $1.50, Three $4.00, Doz. $15.00 
In the Arnold Arboretum in Boston this shrub causes much comment 
each autumn for its unbelievable brilliance of foliage. Its compact 
growth, easy culture, and slow growth make it one of the outstanding 
shrubs for hedges as well as individual specimens in the garden. Its 
ultimate height is six feet. Be sure to plant one or more of them in 
your garden for a brilliant autumn foliage display. Does well in shade, 
Intermedia (Macrophylla) Each $1.50, Three $4.00, Doz. $15.00 
Also known as Fructo-coccineo. This upright growing small shrub (6 to 
7 feet high) should be among the first twelve fruiting ornamentals. The 
rigid branches are a perfect sight when carrying the extra large rose-red 
fruits which age to a brilliant red and are retained long after the leaves 
have dropped. Cut sprays placed in water will last six weeks or more. 
The tree is easily grown anywhere and free from ‘bugs’ and troubles. 
Excellent for the small garden.

Bushy plants, 18-24 inches 1.50 4.00 15.00 100.00 
This is one of the finest and easiest grown evergreen shrubs. Compact 
and shapely, and ultimately about six feet tall. Its foliage is rich green, 
somewhat like that of Euonymus Vegetus and remains on the plant 
practically throughout the entire winter and is quickly replaced by 
shiny new foliage. In spring it is a plant par excellence for growing 
in shady places, under tall trees or in sunless corners. It makes a fine 
hedge and can be pruned any way to suit. Blends beautifully with 
evergreens, grows equally well on acid or alkaline soils and is iron-clad 
hardy. In aqutumn numerous orange berries add to its charm. Trans- 
plants easily either in fall or spring. Does excellently in.shade.
