pinea Van HAouttei 
So universally known and loved that no description is neces- 
sary. In May and June the graceful, drooping sprays are com- 
pletely covered with pure white blossoms. Hardy everywhere, 
beautiful in or out of bloom, and answers almost any purpose. In 
foundation groups, in screens or trimmed hedges, or as an indi- 
vidual specimen, the beautiful Spirea Van Houttei stands su- 
preme. 4-6 ft. at maturity. (Special Hedge Sizes on Page 34).
