than most flowering Cherries. See page 39.

Weeping White. A startling new variety that so far as we 
know has never before been propagated in the United States. 
Thin arching branches 6 to 8 ft. in length hang to the ground. 
The slender bright green branchlets and leaves, which grow 
thickly over the tree, produce the effect of a miniature Weep- 
ing Willow. In March each drooping streamer is lined with 
many large double fragrant flowers of clearest white. Our 
supply is quite limited. Each, balled, 34-11/16 in., $..00. 
CHINESE MAGNOLIAS 
Small trees that seem to grow and flower as well here as 
in their Chinese home. Each spring their enormous tulip- 
shaped blossoms cause much comment. After the flowers 
comes lush dark foliage that keeps them well covered until 
winter. 10-15 ft. Each, $9.50 to $18.50. 
Magnolia liliflora purple. Lily Magnolia. Large flowers, 
rosy purple without and white within. 
Magnolia soulangeana. Rose red edged with white. The 
variety most generally planted here. 
Magnolia soulangeana alba. Big white bloom to 6 inches 
across. 
Magnolia soulangeana Alexander. White inside, purple 
outside deepening at the base. Early bloomer. 
Shade trees are as necessary to your gardens as refrigera- 
tion and air-cooling are to the interior of your house. If you 
have a new house (or one not so new for that matter) and 
have forgotten the shade trees, this note will serve as a 
reminder.
