DECIDUOUS FLOWERING SHRUBS, continued 
FOTHERGILLA major. Distinctive whether 
in bloom or only im leaf. The little flowers, 
shaped like a bottlebrush, appear just before 
the leaves in late April, singly or in small 
clusters. The bronzy leaves are deeply ridged 
at first, becoming somewhat smoother with age. 
In fall they turn bright yellow. Grows to about 
6 feet. $2.50 each. 
HYDRANGEA hortensis, Blue. Blue Hy- 
drangea. Great heads of blue flowers that 
create a spectacular effect. Blooms appear in 
July and August. Does well in northern gar- 
dens and at the seashore. Grows 3 to 4 feet. 
$3.00 each. 
H. opuloides acuminata. This is another 
plant with a name that does not compliment 
its fine qualities. It blooms at a time when 
most other shrubs have ended, usually during 
late June or early July. Flowers are an un- 
usual blue, with very attractive ribbed foliage 
throughout the summer and fall seasons. It ts 
not to be confused with the Blue Hydrangea 
listed above. $3.00 each. 
KOLKWITZIA amabilis. Beauty-Bush. As 
the name implies, this shrub is a beauty. When 
established, its long curving branches are 
literally altve with clusters of pmk and white 
flowers in May. Its foliage maintains a good 
green throughout the season. Grows to 6 feet. 
$1.75 each. 
LIGUSTRUM ovalifolium. California Privet. 
Large, glossy dark green foliage. One of the 
most popular hedge plants. Excellent for a 
dense screen in smaller yards. Thrives in 
almost any situation and retains its foliage 
until late in the winter. 2 to 3 ft., 10 for $3.25; 
100 for $28.00.

LONICERA fragrantissima. Fragrant 
Honeysuckle. A very fine shrub having 
rather round, bright green leaves which are 
blue-green beneath, providing a fine contrast 
when blown in the wind. Its creamy white 
flowers appear before the leaves in the spring 
and are exceptionally fragrant. $1.75 each. 
LONICERA YUNNANENSIS 
New 
A very attractive and useful shrub for 
many purposes but probably handicapped by 
its name. Native of northern china and very 
hardy; in the temperate zone it is considered 
evergreen. Its characteristics are grace and 
daintiness, for its glossy tiny individual leaves 
are very distinctive and a pleasing dark green. 
The flowers are minute and are clustered be- 
neath the foliage in May. Shiny black berries 
in the autumn. An excellent subject for inter- 
planting with other shrubs or as a specimen 
by itself. Lends itself to shearing. $2.50 each; 
3 for $7.00. 
PHILADELPHUS virginalis. Virginal Mock- 
Orange. Immense, fragrant, double white 
flowers in large clusters. Blooms in May, June 
and fall. Grows 5 to 6 feet. $1.75 each. 
Flowering shrubs deserve far more consid- 
erat.on for general landseape planting. Every- 
where we see solid plantings of small ever- 
greens, frequently overdone and monotonous. 
Charming combination plantings of the better 
flowering shrubs are less expensive and ofttimes 
more permanent.

In addition to bearing large crops of tasty 
berries, they are easy to grow, also useful as 
ornamental shrubs in other plantings. They re- 
quire the same culture as Azaleas and Rhodo- 
dendrons. For cross-pollination use two or more 
varieties to assure best results.
