B. & A. Pot-Grown MAGNOLIAS 
HE snow has scarcely vanished when the charming Stellata unfurls its delicately 
scented waxy white petals, to be followed by Soulangeana and its relatives, with 
their larger goblet-like flowers. All varie ies carry some fragrance and are ideal 
subjects for lawn planting, borders, etc. They are highly adaptable to city planting. 
Our method of growing these plants in pots assures you of a complete root system, 
uninterrupted growth, and reasonable safety from the usual first-year hazards. Mag- 
nolias require a well- 
drained, moist soil, and 
after the second year a 
top dressing of well- 
decayed manure will 
prove beneficial. 

- MAGNOLIA stellata 
Conspicua. Yulan Magnolia. The very large, 
creamy white, sweet-scented flowers, 6 inches 
across, appear in April. A small tree with 
spreading branches. $3.00 each. 
Cordata. The only Magnolia yielding lemon- 
yellow flowers. An exceedingly rare and beau- 
tiful tree. The delightful fragrance of the 
lovely blooms, that measure almost 4 inches, 
perfumes the garden in April and May and 
again in the fall. Its nearly round, heart- 
shaped leaves readily distinguish this from 
other varieties when not in bloom. Well-grown 
plants about 2 to 24% feet, balled and bur- 
lapped, $4.00 each. 
Parviflora. Semi-double, waxy white flowers 
21% inches across, with a ball of deep rose-pink 
stamens In the center; this most unusual flower 
formation might best be described as a big, 
luscious, red-ripe strawberry placed up-side- 
down in the middle of the chaste white circle 
of petals. Wild fragrance. Unusual and at- 
tractive. $3.50 each.
