PACHISTIMA 
Canbyi Each 90c, Three $2.60, Doz. $7.25, 100 $50.00 
This small holly-leaved prostrate little evergreen shrub spreads about 
18 inches. Several planted together make a perfectly charming ground 
cover. It grows equally well in sun or shade and is hardy anywhere. Be- 
cause of its ease of culture and fine habit without any care, it is rapidly 
becoming first choice as a cover for graves as well as in small shady 
places in the garden. As a ground cover, plants should be spaced 6 
inches apart. 
Prtentilla Fruticosa 
Gold Drop 
A charming small shrub of such compact growth as to resemble a small 
irregular shaded mound about 2 to 2\> feet high. It is closely and densely 
covered with small, fernlike leaves and studded with intensely brilliant gold- 
en yellow, Buttercup-like flowers from early June until October. This delight- 
ful small shrub may be used in front of the shrub border or in the fore- 
ground of any perennial planting. It does best in full sun and is hardy in 
below zero temperatures. The original plant we selected from the common 
Potentilla Fruticosa. It is far superior both in flowering qualities, habit 
and general appearance. We know of no shrubs which flower so consistently 
and remain so cheerfully brilliant throughout the entire summer and fall. 
Spaced 12 inches apart in a single row it will make one of the most charm- 
ILEX - Holly 
Convexa (Crenata bullata) 
12-15 in., with ball of earth Each $3.00, Three $8.50, Doz. $32.00 
15-18 in., with ball of earth Each $4.00, Three $11.00, Doz. $40.00 
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 much 
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 Ook. 
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 ai cheerful 
showing outside against the snow and are charming for cutting and 
winter decorations. 
Laburnum-Golden Chain 
Mossi - Each $5.00, Three $14.00, Doz. $50.00 
Long-clustered Golden Chain. Small tree-like shrub with green bark 
and foliage like exaggerated Clover leaves. Flowers are pure golden 
yellow and formed exactly like those of Wisteria. The hanging clusters 
are 18 to 20 inches long ard are borne very profusely in late spring. 
Very beautiful. Usually bloom the first year after planting.

4-5 ft., Each $11.00, Three $30.00 
Soulange’s Magnolia, sometimes called the Saucer Magnolia for no 
reason at all, is the rather rare Pink Magnolia of city gardens and 
parks. It makes a small tree with gorgeous shining foliage and in 
early spring produces its enormous, pinkish white flowers, more or less 
purplish outside and slightly fragrant. This Magnolia is the showiest of 
the family for planting in northern gardens, and when in bloom, even 
one plant will dominate the garden—yes, the neighborhood, if it is a 
sizeable specimen. A whole street in Rochester, ‘lined with this variety, 
is a mecca for all enthusiasts every spring. We offer flowering plants 
with a lot of buds, about 3 to 5 feet tall.

Aquifolium Each $1.75, Three $4.75, Doz. $17.50 
This is more popularly known as the Oregon Holly-Grape. It has shiny, 
large, spiny, metallic looking leaves which turn to a bronzy red in 
autumn. In spring the clusters of yellow flowers are very attractive. 
These flowers are followed by blue fruit in June and July. We consider 
it one of the most attractive evergreens of easy cultivation. Does 
perfectly in north exposure in plantings of evergreens. Ultimate height 
about 2 to 3 feet, depending on location where grown.

FLOWERING PLUMS 
Pissardi rosea (Purple-Leaved Plum “Special Selection”) 
Each $4.00, Three $11.00, Doz. $40.00. 
The deep bronzy purple foliage of this small tree is its great attraction; 
however, the thousands of pink, single flowers in spring are not to be 
overlooked. Most ‘‘purple’’ leaved trees lose much of their color through- 
out the summer, but this is not the case with this special selection of 
ours recently imported from England. Its foliage is of the deepest shade 
of purplish red imaginable, almost black. It makes a fine contrast plant 
and helps give variety and color in the garden, easily grown and ideal 
for the small yard or a special point of interest. Ultimate height about 
10 feet. Occasional pruning will keep it in shape desired. 
Pissardi veitchi Each $4.00, Three $11.00, Doz. $40.00 
This small tree grows about 10 feet tall, but can be pruned to smaller 
size if desired. In early spring it is covered with thousands of large 
clusters of double pink blossoms not unlike those of the double flow- 
ering Cherry or Peach. It is very hardy and should be used in place of 
flowering Peaches or Cherries exclusively in those localities where the 
latter are not hardy. In addition to the delightful display of double pink 
flowers you will enjoy the light bronze colored foliage which in late 
summer turns green. 
Triloba Each $2.00, Three $5.75, Doz. $20.00 
The flowering Plum blooms early in May before the leaves come out. 
The delightful double, quilled, bright pink flowers stud every twig and 
branchlet so heavily no wood is visible. Very handsome and should not 
be left out of any garden. We offer plants growing on their own roots 
bere they are so much more satisfactory. Ultimate height about 
eet. 
BRONZE-LEAVED SUMAC 
Rhus Cotinus Rubrifolius Each $2.50 
Here we have the rare bronzed-leaved and “‘bronzed-plumed’’ Smoke 
Tree. The common Smoke Tree is too well known, nothing more need 
be said about it except that it has been a favorite garden shrub for 
hundreds of years. The bronzed-leaved form has handsome’ bronze 
tinted foliage and a branze colored so-called plume or smoke. It is 
one of the outstanding shrubs in our nursery and has caused a great 
deal of comment. We are sure that this rare shrub will make a fine 
display in your garden. We offer nice bushes about 3 to 4 feet tall. 
SORBUS - Mountain Ash 
Each $5.00, Three $14.00, Doz. $50.00 
-This prolificly fruiting variety resembles the well known Mountain Ash 
very closely. It does not grow quite as tall, only 20 to 25 feet, but pro- 
duces twice the amount of flowers and fruit. The branches literally bend 
under the brilliant loads of orange fruits. This small tree can be grown 
in every small garden without damaging nearby flowers. Transplants. 
readily. We offer nice young trees about 6 feet tall.
