Among the flowering trees the rose-flowering cherry 
takes the lead. They vary in form and therefore may 
be adapted to many uses in landscape work. Some 
are vase-form, others pyramidal in growth, but most 
sorts have wide-spreading branches, vigorous in 
growth, and still others are rather dwarfish. Nearly 
all are tinted various shades of pink, and a few are 
white. Trees are hardy. While known and used in the 
Orient for hundreds of years, these valuable trees are 
rapidly becoming popular and gaining favor in the 
United States. Both upright and weeping growth. 
Kwanzan. Double, rose-pink—Handsomest of all the 
double flowering cherries. Blooms just after the middle 
of April (depending somewhat upon locality). The tree 
is upright and spreading, and at maturity 25 to 30 feet 
high. Leaves and flowers appear simultaneously. The 
buds are red, and the fragrant, rich, rose-colored double 
blossoms are borne in clusters. Flowers are very large, 
up to 2 inches in diameter. A graceful and beautiful 
tree for the lawn or grounds, also adapted for planting 
in parking strips and along avenues. 
Shirofugen—15 ft. Has the very largest flowers of 
any variety that we grow, deep pink in the bud and 
pale pink in the open flowers. It is almost impossible 
to describe the beauty of this tree when in full bloom. 
Mount Fuji—Pure white; remains attractive; calyx 
turning reddish with age. A bushy, small tree, hardy, 
extremely floriferous. 
Naden—One of the most handsome types. Semi- 
double lavender pink flowers. 
One of the finest weeping trees for lawns and small grounds. The 

branches are slender and when gratted on tall stems, fall gracefully to 
the ground. The flowers are rose-colored, appearing before the leaves. 
Note: Weeping trees will be trimmed, ready to plant, when shipped.

Small growing, distinct ornamental trees used as specimens or 
grouped with other trees and shrubs in border or background. Their 
foliage produces beautiful tones of purple, very attractive where colored 
effects are desired. The varieties differ in pink, white, single and double 
blossoms. 
Bliriana—Upright growth with dark purple foliage. The blossoms 
appearing early in May, are deep pink, double and fragrant... The 
shape and size resemble the Flowering Almond blooms. This is one 
of the best varieties. Twelve to fifteen feet at maturity. 
Pissardi—Beautiful purple foliage, retaining its color well through 
the season. It has attractive pale pink flowers in May. Edible fruit 
excellent for jelly. Fifteen to twenty feet at maturity. 
Vesuvius (Burbank’s Purple Leaf Plum)—Foliage larger and more 
reddish than Prunus Pissardi. Flowers are slightly larger and later. 
A very brilliant decorative tree. 
Thunder Cloud—This and the Vesuvius have the most beautiful foli- 
age of any of the flowering plums. The leaves appear a rich red color 
and gradually become darker, turning to a very rich purple.
