the competition isn’t so keen. From July until October they 
flaunt their huge trusses of pink, red and lavender to make 
the warm summer days more livable. Appreciate plenty of 
moisture during the blooming season. 8-15 ft. Sun. 5-gal.

TREE PEONY 
Paeonia. The double flowers of this importation from 
China have been greatly improved through the years and it 
is now one of our most colorful garden subjects. The plants 
prefer a moist loamy soil and generous amounts of rotted 
stable or dairy manure. The big divided leaves are hand- 
some in their own right. We grow red and pink. Blooms are 
borne in spring or early summer. Plenty of water in growing 
season, good drainage, morning sun, protection from after- 
noon sun. Give bonemeal at planting time and each year 
after blooming period. 4-5 ft. Pots, Moutan, $8.50; Double 
Pink and Double Red, $14.75.

less white. Four crisp, well rounded petals and white stamens

fume. Keep for days when cut. Full fresh green foliage. Sun

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, $3.50. 
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, 3-4 ft: $3.75; gal. containers: $1.25: 
LILACS

that leaves a memory of delightful fragrance. Grows more 
readily in our mild climate than other varieties of lilac. Sun 
or part shade. 6-7 ft. 5-gal. containers, $3.25; gal. containers, 
$1.00. 
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., $3.25.
