DWARF RED LEAF PLUM 
Prunus cistena. Now, even though your space is quite lim- 
ited, you may enjoy a Red Leaf Plum. We know that in 
years past many of you have had to forego this red leaved 
beauty for lack of room. This newer variety, originated by 
Prof. Hansen, forms a well branched shrub to six feet and 
in addition has the richest colored foliage of any of the plum 
varieties. Small single white, red centered bloom, in loose 
clusters. Sun. Hardy. 5-gal. containers, $3.25. 
JACQUEMONT CHERRY 
Prunus jacquemonti. We have had this promising shrub 
on trial for the past three years and are happy now to be able 
to pass it on to you. The plant grows thriftily to about 6 
feet, densely lining its upright branches with lance-like 
leaves to about 2 inches in length. Before the leaves appear 
in spring, each branch is crowded with single rosy pink 
bloom about the size of a 5c piece. You'll find the cut flow- 
ers a welcome source for indoor decorations. Sweet, tasty 
cherries follow the bloom and, while small, they are meaty 
and delightful to eat. No garden should be without one plant 
at least. Sun. Balled, 2%-3 ft., $3.50. 
MANCHURIAN BUSH CHERRY 
Prunus tomentosa. In spring each branchlet is lined with 
small white bloom. By summer the branches are loaded 
with red cherries touched with amber, about half an inch in 
diameter, which are of good flavor and sweet when thor- 
oughly ripe. Excellent for jam, pie or jelly. An attractive 
bushy shrub, perfectly hardy and easily grown. 5-6 ft. Sun. 
5-gal. containers, $3.25. 
REEVES SPIRAEA 
Spiraea cantoniensis Double. Small snowy white bloom, in 
clusters, like miniature roses completely cover the shrub in 
spring. Dense, attractive foliage through summer. 6-7 ft. 
Sun. 5-gal. containers, $3.09; gal. containers, 85e.

PAEONIA. Should prove to be the most lovely flowers 
in your garden. 

LILACS 
Syringa persica. Persian Lilac. Blooms much more satis- 
factorily than the Eastern Lilacs that are more generally 
planted here. While the flower spikes are slightly smaller 
than those of the eastern variety they possess the same high 
fragrant quality and color. We recommend it. Sun. 6-8 ft.

5-gal. containers, $3.00; gal. containers, 90c. 
Syringa vulgaris. Grafted varieties. The varieties most of 
you learned to love in the East. It isn’t quite as happy here 
but those of you who can exercise a little patience will be 
rewarded some years with rich quantities of deliciously fra- 
grant bloom. We grow them in pink, white, red and purple. 
Enjoy light shade and moisture. A hint, given us by friends, 
we'll pass along to you. After defrosting your mechanical 
refrigerator pour the accumulated cold water about the roots 
of your Lilacs. They'll bloom more heavily. Could be, but 
we haven’t tried it. 5-gal. $3.00. 
SNOWBALL 
Viburnum opulus roseum. The good old-fashioned Snow- 
ball. Great heads of showy white flowers in late spring. In 
fall the shrub wears a gleaming mantle of orange and scarlet. 
Easily grown and quite hardy. Sun or part shade. 6-8 ft.

quantity Weigelas are unequaled. Huge clusters of gleaming 
red or waxy pink tubular flowers sparkle against a back- 
ground of clean fresh foliage. For best results plant in part 
shade. 5-gal. containers, $3.00; gal. containers, 85c. 
Weigela coraeensis alba. Clear white. 
Weigela florida. Rose pink. 6-7 ft.

spring and occasionally through summer. 4-5 ft.
