HALESIA KERRIA 

Tetraptera Each $2.00, Three $5.75, Doz. $20.00 Japonica flora plena Each $1.25, Three $3.50, Doz. $12.00 
The Silver Bell or Snowdrop Tree, also sometimes called the Lily-of-the- 
Valley Tree, is a most attractive round-headed, bushy little tree with 
horizontal branches and rather ordinary foliage. Its beauty consists in 
the millions of small white bells which dangle in bewildering profusion 
from the lower side of the branchlets. Certainly no flowering tree is 
handsomer and daintier than the Silver Bell when in full bloom, and it is 
always an object of great interest and curiosity. 
ILEX - Holly 
Convexa (Crenata bullata) 
12-15 in., with ball of earth Each $2.00, Three $5.75, Doz. $20.00 
15-18 in., with ball of earth Lach $3.00, Three $8.50, Doz. $32.00 
This is one of the choicest of evergreens and was introduced into this 
country in 1919 by E. H. (Chinese) Wilson. It has taken many years of 
effort to produce this little beauty in quantities, but now it’s here for 
you to enjoy. It is very bushy, has shiny dark green, Boxwood-like foli- 
age somewhat convex and it grows about 4 feet high and 3 feet across. 
The glossy leaves are so profuse that twigs are invisible. Left to itself it 
grows “informally formal’’ and blends beautifully with other evergreens. 
As a small “‘accent’”’ plant it is faultless. For small hedges it is a jewel, 
particularly in cold climates where Boxwood is impossible, but it is mucin 
too rare yet to be used for that purpose. An absolute ‘’must’’ for every 
garden. Does well in light shade or full sun and is equally happy on 
alkaline or acid soil, and last but not least, it is as hardy as an Oak. 
Glabra Each $3.00, Three $8.50, Doz. $32.00 
The Inkberry is a loose, spreading shrub, 4 to 5 feet high at maturity, 
with shining dark green leaves and a profusion of glittering black 
berries through the winter. It is an excellent plant for hedges in shady 
situations. It may also be effectively used as individual plants mixed 
with evergreens or in front of the shrubbery border. 
Serrata (Sieboldi) Each $4.00, Three $11.00, Doz. $40.00 
This is the deciduous Holly. It is slow growing and ultimately reaches 
a height of about 10 feet. In winter, after the leaves have been shed, 
it is one of the most showy shrubs because of the persistent brilliant 
red berries which hang on practically all winter. They make a cheerful 
showing outside against the snow and are charming for cutting and 
winter decorations. 
Cree Gorm Hydrangea 
Paniculata grandiflora, Tree Form Each $4.00 
This is a Hydrangea tree with a stem about 4 feet high on top of which 
are grown several short branches, each one of which will bear the well 
known Hydrangea bloom. This form of tree is particularly fine as a single 
specimen in a flower bed, and they are indispensable in the formal 
garden and look very well on either side of aarden steps. 
Hydrangea Paniculata, Tree Form 



Double Kerria is sometimes called the Globe Flower because the choice 
double golden flowers have a ball-like shape not unlike the button 
Chrysanthemums. The plant grows vigorously and attains a maximum 
height of 4 to 5 feet. It is bushy in habit with many bright green 
stems, attractive all winter. Give it a sunny location in front of the 
border and its golden yellow blooms all summer will be a pleasure. 
The flowers last well in water and are excellent for cutting. 
Ht ypexicums 
Attractive and charming low growing, summer-flowering shrubs. 
Their brilliant flowers are beautifully formed and grow on slender 
branches from early summer until stopped by frost. Excellent subjects 
for the flower border or in the foreground of taller shrubs, as well as 
for ground covering. 
Calycinum Each $1.00, Three $2.75, Doz. $8.50, 100 $60.00 
This is a most valuable variety because it can also be used as a 
ground cover for both sunny and semi-shady places. The under- 
ground runners are produced so freely as to completely cover the 
ground; at the tops the golden yellow flowers shine like jewels. Its 
height is about 12 to 18 inches. We recommend this as one of the 
best and hardiest. 
HYPERICUM “SUNGOLD” 
(U. S. Plant Patent No. 568) 
A hardy, shapely, dwarf shrub which grows into an almost completely 
oval shape of 2¥ to 3 feet in diameter, and about 18 to 24 inches in 
height, densely covered with foliage that is handsome throughout the 
summer. It bears its cymes of golden flowers at the end of every shoot 
of the summer's new growth. It flowers more freely and much longer 
than any of the Hypericum Patulum now in general use. Its flowers 
are bigger and produced in immense quantities, transforming this lovely 
plant into a small mound of gold when in full bloom. 
Of particular interest and value is its exceptional hardiness. In our 
nursery tests over five years it has proven its ability to withstand cold 
weather as well as outgrow and outbloom any Hypericum we have ever 
seen. The average size of bloom is from 214 to 3 inches in diameter. 
Each $1.50, Three $4.00, Doz. $15.00 
Philadelphus - Mock Orange 
NEW FRENCH MOCKORANGES 
ATLAS 
New Giant Mockorange 
This giant-flowered Mockorange, with its pure white blooms as large as 
those of Dogwoods, will be sensational in your garden and we predict will 
replace many of the more common and indifferent shrubs. This magnificent 
hybrid came to us a few years ago from France. It has been carefully 
tested and not found wanting. Hardy, of easy culture, grows most any- 
where, good upright habit, and covered with immense blooms which slightly 
lack being 3 inches in diameter that are magnificent for cutting. Decidedly 
a “must’’ for shrubbery borders. Each $3.00, Three $8.50, Doz. $32.00 
BELLE ETOILE 
(Beautiful Star) 
New Fragrant Star Mockorange 
We, as well as others who have seen and smelled the charming flowers 
of this Mockorange, consider this one of the finest and choicest. It is an 
origination of that great Frenchman, Lemoine. The starlike flowers open 
in Lily-like fashion, tne centers showing a decided light purple flush. This 
extra touch of color, plus its intense and delightful fragrance which can 
be detected over the entire garden, sets this shrub aside as one in a class 
by itself. Its growth is orderly, nice and bushy, and grows about _5 feet tall 
and 4 feet in diameter. It is one of our last importations from France, and 
a few years ago received the Award of Merit from the Royal Horticultural 
Society of Great Britain. Dig up an old, unsightly bush and replace it with 
this beautiful Mockorange. Each $2.50, Three $7.00, Doz. $25.00

INNOCENCE 
New Alabaster- White Mockorange 
The long arching branches carry a wealth of large single alabaster-white 
flowers. So heavily loaded with flowers are the slender branches as to 
assume the appearance of sheaves of bloom. They are of such purity of 
whiteness as to make all other Mockoranges seem gray by comparison. 
The fragrance is delightful, more delicate, yet more penetrating than that 
of Jasmine. Its flowers are so intensely white, one constantly marvels at its 
ethereai effect. A ‘must’ in every garden. Ultimate height about 6 feet.
