A651 BEAUTY BUSH (Kolkwitzia.) A very 
hardy tallgrowing shrub, 6 to 8 feet. 
This is one of the more beautiful of the 
spring flowering shrubs. Its gracefully 
arching branches are completely covered 
with lovely pink flowers in early spring. 
Slower to bloom than many, but the 
beauty is more than worth waiting for.

postpaid. 
A652 ROSEZALEA (Copyright). One of the 
new beauties in the shrub world. De- 
veloped from the Flowering Crab family, 
it has the same lovely pink blooms in 
May, followed by the striking red fruit 
in later summer. This is unusually effec- 
tive as a tall accent shrub. 3-4 ft., $1.50

summer. Extremely hardy, will grow in 
any type of soil. Should be cut back 
severely when planted to give the roots 
the best start. 18-24 inch, 50c each; 
3 for $1.35, postpaid. 
A654 HI-BUSH CRANBERRY. Everyone has 
his favorite shrub and this is mine. A 
lovely tall bush (8 to 10 ft), it has a 
spread of 6 to 7 feet. I think it is the 
most outstanding of the screen plantings. 
The foliage is rich, dark green. Masses 
of white bloom in early spring. But 
lovelier than all are the clusters of bril- 
liant red berries that cover the bush from 
mid-July to mid-winter. Branches of this 
shrub are gorgeous when cut and placed 
in water. I always use this wherever a 
tall planting is indicated. Heavy 18-24 
inch, 90c each; 3 for $2.40, postpaid. 
A655 MAGNOLIA SOULANGEANA. A 
Magnolia hardy north of the Mason-Dixon 
line! One of the first flowers in early 
spring, Soulangeana is the most popular 
of the hardy varieties to be developed. 
The flowers are large, somewhat tulip- 
shaped, a delicate pink in the bud, open- 
ing to a rich ivory cream, deep red at 
the base of the cup. The foliage, rich, 
waxy green, is as ornamental through 
the summer as are the flowers in the 
spring. The Magnolia is one of the most 
beautiful of the flowering trees for the 
lawn. 2-3 ft., $4.75 each, postpaid. 
A625 WEIGELA EVA RATHKE. Flowers are 
a brilliant crimson, a beautiful and dis- 
tinct shade; bell-shaped, on long droop- 
ing branches. Blooms nearly all summer. 
18-24 inch, 80c each, 3 for $2.25, post- 
paid.

ing shrubs. Slender and stately, it has 
beautiful dark red foliage in early spring, 
this turning to deep purple-green for the 
entire summer. It is a most effective 
accent point in any shrub planting, with 
its distinctive coloring and form of a 
pyramidal evergreen. 2-3 ft., $1.35 each,
