Improved Carlesi. Waxy blush-white and delicately fragrant, the 
flowers of this new fragrant Viburnum are produced in early spring 
when the leaves are unfolding. They form round, domed clusters, 
and the Gardenia-like fragrance is so sweet as to pervade a large 
area. The plant grows about 6 feet high and 4 to 5 feet in diameter. 
It likes a well drained, sunny place, with plenty of moisture. This 
is a new jewel for the garden—a real aristocrat. For the small 
garden, the one Viburnum above all others that should be grown, 
is Viburnum Burkwoodi. Foliage shiny dark green all summer. 

Carlesi Each $5.00, Three $13.00, Doz. $50.00 
Waxy white, deliciously fragrant flowers in early spring when the leaves 
are unfolding. This fragrant Snowball is a great favorite. It is very 
hardy, easily grown and does well in light shade, as well as in full sun. 
iiomentosum Each $2.00, Three $5.75, Doz. $20.00 
If all the other Viburnums were thrown into the discard, this one would 
justify the family. It is a superb flowering shrub and the spectacle of 
a good Tomentosum in bloom is a sight not ever to be forgotten. In early 
June the horizontal branches become perfect mosaics of wheel-like 
clusters ‘ringed with dazzling white flowers, with spidery sunburst cen- 
ters, resembling a fall of snow. Ultimate height 8 feet. 
Tomentosum plicatum Each $2.50, Three $7.00, Doz. $25.00 
The Japanese Snowball has its pure white flowers arranged in a perfectly 
round ball 3 to 4 inches across. Its clean foliage is quite similar to the 
Tomentosum. Much neater and in every way superior to the common 
Snowball which is usually covered with aphids. It makes aq commanding 
specimen and there are few shrubs handsomer than this when well grown. 
Opulus Xanthocarpum (Apricot-Fruited Cranberry Bush) 
Each $2.50, Three $7.00, Doz. $25.00 
This makes a handsome bush 5 to 7 feet high: It is particularly attrac- 
tive from July to December after when its beautiful blossoms are re- 
placed by immense clusters of 12-inch apricot-yellow fruits. The clus- 
ters.of berries are many and heavy, and create a beautiful show against 
the rich green foliage. The heavily fruited branches may be cut for 
indoor decoration. They combine stunningly with Gladioli, Dahlias, or 
Chrysanthemums. The clusters of fruits retain their beautiful apricot- 
yellow. tint for six weeks or more. Easily grown, hardy as an Oak. May 
be planted in fall or spring. The plants we ship are about 3 feet tall.

formed, well-rounded specimen requiring very little pruning because it flowers well from old wood; no die-back or un-

difficult regions fully substantiate our own estimates of its unusual hardiness. 
Bristol Ruby is definitely superior to any 
other red Weigela in every respect and visitors here at the nursery are quick to note its better qualities.
