Evonymus, Burning Bush 
Blue Hydrangea 
$ 55 Blue Hydrangea Domoti— The hardiest Blue Hydrangea. Has 
immense flower heads, often a foot across, that last for many weeks. In 
ordinary soil the flowers are pink. In acid soil they are blue. You can make 
your soil acid by mixing with it, half and half, acid Peat Moss (see page 
33). Watering twice a month with a tablespoon of aluminum sulphate per 
gallon of water, will deepen the blue color. If you cannot get aluminum 
sulphate from a drug store, we will send you some postpaid for 50c. 
Grows 3 feet tall and just as wide. Does best in partial shade. Where 
temperature goes below zero give winter protection just like roses, by 
mounding up 10 to 12 inches of soil around the plant before severe freezing, 
We do not recommend planting north of central Iowa, Minnesota and 
similar cold sections. Elsewhere it is a center of attraction in any garden, 
Our plants are field-grown (not small green-house potted plants) and a 
very great bargain at this price. They often start blooming next year 
after planting.

BLUE SPIREA 
(Caryopteris, Blue Mist) 
S$ 33 This is one of the most 
attractive, low-growing 
shrubs. Makes a neat, com- 
pact, rounded bush about 2 
feet tall with narrow, silvery- 
green foliage. From August 
to frost it is covered with 
many clusters of dainty 
lilac-blue flowers. The roots 
are hardy but in northern 
states the tops die down to 
the ground each winter. 
Cut off the old tops in the 
spring and new ones come 
up. We have only a few 
hundred plants this spring.

Durumer Lilacs 
Four new Buddleias, each the finest of its color, and all blooming profuse- 
ly and continuously from early summer to frost. No other shrub can com- 
pare with them for freedom of bloom. They make a compact bush, 4 feet 
or so tall. The roots are hardy, the tops die down in winter, then come up 
again even more vigorously next spring. The lovely fragrant flowers are 
beautiful in the garden and fine for cutting. All Postpaid.
