shrubs for hedges as well as individual specimens in the garden. Its 
ultimate height’is six feet. Be sure to plant one or more of them in your

and free from “‘bugs” and troubles. Excellent for the small garden. 

Patens 
This is one of the finest ond easiest grown evergreen shrubs. Compact 
and shapely, and ultimately about six feet tall. Its foliage is rich green, 
somewhat like that of Euonymus Vegetus and remains on the plant

shiny new foliage. In spring it is a plant par excellence for growing 
in shady places, under tall treés or in sunless corners. It makes a fine 
hedge and can be pruned any way to. suit. Blends beautifully with 
evergreens, grows equally well on acid or alkaline soils and is iron-clad 
hardy. In autumn numerous orange berries add to its charm. Trans-. 
plants easily either in fall or spring. Does excellently in shade.

Halus--- lowering Crabs 
(State regulations forbid the shipment of Malus, Crataegus 
and Cydonia, into the states of Colorado and Utah.) 
Arnoldiana 
Arnold’s Crab was originated in the Arnold Arboretum at Boston, and 
was evidently a seedling from some of the many beautiful varieties 
which are planted there. The semi-double flowers are pink, turning 
white after aefew days, and droop gracefully in long-stalked clusters. 
In the autumn the tree is adorned with pendulous clusters of waxy yel- 
low fruits about the size of a Cherry. Its habit is compact and it ts 
seldom more than 10 to 12 feet high. 
Aldenhamensis Each $3.00, Three $8.50, Doz. $32.00 
A beautiful brilliant kind with rich purple-red foliage. The flowers are 
semi-double red with purple glow. When in bloom it is a compellingly 
beautiful plant. Ultimate height 20 feet. 
Floribunda Each $3.50, Three $9.75, Doz. $35.00 
Is “the” favorite. It is of spreading growth and prolific flowering. The 
blossoms are a light pink blending into a white, followed by an abun- 
dance of yellowish green fruit relished by the birds. The flower buds 
are very beautiful, displaying a brilliant pink before bursting into early 
bloom. It can be grown as a tree, but it is best as a bush—a hand- 
some and very attractive variety. As pink is probably the favorite color 
in the garden, Floribunda has always enjoyed great popularity. It blooms 
when about 12 inches high. 
Floribunda atropurpurea Each $3.50, Three $9.75, Doz. $35.00 
In habit it exactly resembles Floribunda, but it is much more. brilliant 
than that variety. The flowers are red and when this tree is in bloom 
it will stop every passer-by. The bronzy red foliage also contributes 
mightily to its showiness and beauty. In the autumn when the thousands 
of small apples turn red you again behold a lovely sight. It is a strong 
grower and will bloom profusely on small! plants. In fact, the flowers are 
so profuse they ccmpletely hide all twigs and branches.

Hopa 
In the spring 
Beautiful in bloom, beautiful in foliage, beautiful in fruit. 
it is completely covered with the fragrant, bright pink flowers. From 
midsummer till severe freezing, the clusters of small, red Crab Apples 
gleam brightly along the branches. This fruit makes very fine jelly.

thriving in any soil.

pale pink flowers about 2 inches across, exactly like little Roses. They 
have a delicate violet scent. 
Pink Weeper Crab Each $4.00, Three $11.00, Doz. $40.00

The flowers are crimson-purple when open; the buds blood-red. A beau- 
tiful flowring. small, weeping tree. Its attractiveness is prolonged by 
its fruit until late in the fall. Ultimate height 12 to 15 feet. We offer
