The attractive flowers from these famous 
Crabs are, at this time, without question,

Landscape Men. This year we offer you

No. 302. HOPA—A_ gorgeous Tree 
which will reward you with loads of the 
most delightful Apple Blossoms. These 
blossoms will be followed with sparkling 
fruit; very delicious. If you do not wish 
to pick the fruit when ripe, it will hang 
on the tree all Winter. Grand for Birds, 
No. 300. BECHTEL’S—Often called the 
PINK ROSE TREE. In the Spring, when 
the trees are covered completely with 
rich rose-like flowers, you are compelled 
to say it is the most beautiful tree you 
have ever seen. Trees are very graceful 
and seldom grow more than 12 feet in 
height. Trees extremely hardy and can 
be grown very successfully in all sections 
of the Country.

Rese Sree 
of China 
No. 296. PRUNUS TRILOBA—One of the most beautiful and showy of 
all small trees. It begins to bloom before the leaves appear in the spring, 
being literally covered with very double rose-like flowers. This symmetri- 
cally formed, graceful little tree grows usually to a height of but 6 feet 
and is attractive as a specimen or when planted in groups or shrub bor- 
der. It is hardy and easy to grow, and no lawn is so small that room can- 
not be found for at least one of these wonderful, new small trees. Many 
who see them declare they are the most beautiful trees they have ever 
seen. The large, rose-like blossoms make fine cut flowers. Select 3 to 4 ft. 
trees, $2.00 each. Select blooming-age trees, $2.40 each. 
SCARLET LEAF ROSE TREE OF CHINA 
No. 298. PRUNUS BLIRIANA—This glorious Tree is very similar to the 
Number 296, PRUNUS TRILOBA, except its leaves are a brilliant scarlet. 
Late in the Spring the color of the tree changes to a deep, rich, attractive 
maroon. Its beautiful flowers and its bright, rich red fruit makes it most 
outstanding. 
REDUCED PRICES: 3 to 4 foot Select Trees, $2.00 each; Extra Large 
Blooming Age, $2.75 each. 
No. 299 Double Flowering KERRIA 
Frequently called the Globe Flower, because of its ball-like shape. The 
blooms are very lovely, bright golden-yellow, double rose-like; produced 
in great abundance all summer. Attractive green corrugated leaves. 
Grow vigorously; attain a height of 3-4 ft. Plant in sunny location. 
Very choice! 2-yr., field-grown bushes. Each 75c; 2 for $1.40. 
No. 444 Purple Fringe Smoke Tree 
This different, but most striking and graceful shrub was brought to the 
United States from the southern part of Europe. It is perfectly hardy 
and easily grown, but as yet it is comparatively unknown. Planted as a 
single specimen on the lawn, in the corner of the yard, or planted along- 
side the house, where it can be seen to advantage, it always excites com- 
ment. In late Summer and Fall it is entirely covered with a curious fringe 
of fine, purplish misty-looking flowers which give the bush a smoky ap- 
pearance. Grows 10 to 12 feet tall and is surely a beauty. Price, extra 
strong, 3-4 ft. bushes, $1.80 each. 2 or more, $1.70 each.
