Hypericums 
Attractive and charming low growing, summer-flowering 
shrubs. Their brilliant flowers are beautifully formed and 
grow on slender branches from early summer until stopped 
by frost. Excellent subjects for the flower border or in the 
foreground of taller shrubs, as well as for ground covering. 
Calycinum Each $1.00, Three $2.75, Doz. $8.50, 100 $60.00 i 
This is a most valuable variety because it can also be used 
es a ground cover for both sunny and semi-shady places. 
The underground runners are produced so freely as to com- 
pletely cover the ground; at the tops the golden yellow flow- 
ers shine like jewels. Its height is about 12 to 18 inches. 
We recommend this as one of the best and hardiest. 

















HYPERICUM SUNGOLD (U. S. Plant 
Patent No. 568) 
A hardy, shapely, dwarf shrub which grows into an almost completely 
oval globe of 22 to 3 feet in diameter, and about 18 to 24 inches in 
height, densely covered with foliage that is handsome throughout the 
summer. It bears its cymes of golden flowers at the end of every shoot 
of the summer's new growth. If flowers more freely and much longer 
than any of the Hypericum Patulum now in general use. Its flowers are 
bigger and produced in immense quantities, transforming this lovely plant 
into a small mound of gold when in full bloom. 
Of particular interest and value is its exceptional hardiness. In our 
nursery tests over five years it has proven its ability to withstand cold 
weather as well as outgrow and outbloom any Hypericum we have ever 
seen. 
The average size of bloom is from 22 to 3 inches in diameter.

clusters 12 to 15 inches in diameter, composed of immense 
semi-double flowers. Very frequently the main stem pro- 
duces 3 or 4 additional smaller bloom clusters below the 
main flower head, creating a veritable bouquet. The flower 
heads are well above the foliage and last 8 to 10 weeks 
or more. The color is pure pink on alkaline soil but will 
change to a magnificent light blue if the plant is grown 
in acid soil. It grows into a stout plant two to three feet 
in diameer and about the same in height, has healthy 
decorative foliage throughout the season, and last but not 
least it is one of the hardiest of the Hydrangeas. No matter 
if all of last season’s growth freezes back to the ground the 
blooms are produced on the new growth. An impressive, 
showy Hydrangea which will grow in full sun or light shade.
