PHILADELPHUS VIRGINALIS—Carries its fragrant blooms 
well into summer. 
TREE PEONY 
Paeonia. The double flowers of this importation from 
China have been greatly improved through the years and it 
is now one of our most colorful garden subjects. The plants 
prefer a moist loamy soil and generous amounts of rotted 
stable or dairy manure. The big divided leaves are hand- 
some in their own right. We grow red and pink. Blooms are 
borne in Spring or early Summer. 4-5 ft. 5-gal containers, 
$14.50. 
STAR BELLE

press you forcibly with their similarity to the waxy native 
Dogwood blossoms. Big 2-inch single flowers of clean fault- 
less white. Four crisp, well rounded petals and white stamens 
tipped with gold. No flower possesses a more satisfying per- 
fume. Keep for days when cut. Full fresh green foliage. 
Sun or light shade. 4-5 ft. 5-gal. containers, $3.00; gal. con- 
tainers, $1.00.

years July this bushy shrub provides a bounteous crop of

larger than the common Mock Orange. Grows freely in most 
any soil. Sun or part shade. 6-7 ft. 5-gal. containers, $3.00;

DWARF RED LEAF PLUM 
Prunus cistena. Now, even though your space is quite lim- 
ited, you may enjoy a Red Leaf Plum. We know that in 
years past many of you have had to forego this red leaved 
beauty for lack of room. This newer variety, originated by 
Prof. Hansen, forms a well branched shrub to six feet and 
in addition has the richest colored foliage of any of the plum 
varieties. Hardy. 5-gal. containers, $3.25. 
MANCHURIAN BUSH CHERRY

oughly ripe. Excellent for jam, pie or jelly. An attractive 
bushy shrub, perfectly hardy and easily grown. 5-6 ft. Sun.

tremely showy and excellent for cutting. Waxy bright green 
foliage. 6-7 ft. 5-gal. containers, $3.00; gal. containers, 85c.

readily in our mild climate than other varieties of lilac. Sun 
or part shade. 6-7 ft. 5-gal. containers, $3.00; gal. containers,

grant bloom. We grow them in purple and in white. Enjoy 
light shade and moisture. 8-10 ft. 5-gal. containers, $3.00.
