their own roots, thus! insuring extra vigor and more lasting satisfaction 
as well as no “wild suckers.’’ 
Potentilla 
Gold Drop 
A charming small shrub of such compact growth as to resemble a small 
irregular shaped mound about 2 to 214 feet high. It is closely and densely 
covered with small, fernlike leaves and studded with intensely brilliant 
golden yellow, Buttercup-like flowers from early June until October. This 
delightful small shrub may be used in front of the shrub border or in the 
foreground of any perennial planting. It does best in full sun and is hardy 
in below zero temperatures. The original plant we selected from the com- 
mon Potentilla Fruticosa. It is far superior both in flowering qualities, 
habit and general appearance. We know of no shrubs which flower so con- 
sistently and remain so cheerfully brilliant throughout the entire summer 
and fall. Spaced 12 inches apart in a single row it will make one of the 
most charming informal hedges that can be imagined. 
Each $2.00, Three $5.75, Doz. $20.00 
Snowflake 
A graceful, small, 3-foot high shrub, upright in growth, yet compact. 
Foliage is dense and fernlike in effect. From early June until October the 
plants are studded with silvery white, chalice-like blooms. A splendid low- 
growing and graceful shrub for foreground planting. Fits in perfectly with 
perennial plants in the hardy border. Prefers a sunny location. Is hardy in 
below zero temperatures. 
Each $1.50, Three $4.00, Doz. $15.00 
Robina “ ae Acacia 
Hispida, Monument (Pyramidal Rose-Acacia) 
Each $3.50, Three $9.75 
The habit of growth of this Rose-Acacia is not unlike that of the Lom- 
bardy Poplar. And because of this unusual habit we have a small flow- 
ering tree that can be grown in every garden, big or little. It may be 
used as a small lawn specimen or in the shrub border where it will not 
crowd or harm plants near by. During late May and June it is covered 
with drooping clusters of deep rose-colored flowers resembling pea- 
blossoms. Will arow in any soil anywhere. Ultimate height about 10 to ‘ 5 
12 feet. We offer nice plants about 6 feet. Prunus Pissardi Rosea
