BECHTEL’S CRAB 
This choice variety of Crab has endeared itself 
to many growers because of its spectacular 
flood of large, double, rose-like flowers in Spring 
which completely hide the branches. Blooms 
every year. In general it resembles an Apple 
tree but is much smaller and finer branched. It 
grows in many locations and benefits from the 
same care given Apple trees.

DOGWOODS 
CORNUS florida (W hiteflowering Dogwood). 
The rare beauty of Dogwood in Spring when it 
is white with bloom, or in Summer with its 
dark green foliage changing in the Fall to gor- 
geous reds, is hard to equal. It is one of the 
loveliest of trees. The spreading branches grow 
horizontally and slightly upward from the 
trunk, conspicuous flowers, appearing early in 
the Spring, are 3 to 314 inches in diameter. A 
Dogwood makes a beautiful lawn or shrub bor- 
der specimen and is valuable for naturalizing 
where its native woods habitat can be copied. 
2 to 3 ft. trees, $2.25

Showy, rose-colored bracts (petals) and the 
deep red foliage in the Fall conspicuously dis- 
tinguish it from the white Dogwoods, having 
the same ultimate height and good habits of 
growth. A combination of redflowering with 
the white makes a beautiful grouping.
