Tamarix 
TAMARIX 
The Tamarix is one of our prettiest and most 
striking shrubs when in bloom. Many varieties of 
Tamarix are not hardy but the variety we are of- 
fering is hardy. In planting the Tamarix, it should 
be cut back within 6 inches of the ground, so 
we trim them before they leave the nursery.

FLOWERING ALMONDS 
PINK. One of the very earliest shrubs to 
bloom. Low bushes grow 2 to 4 feet high 
and are covered early in the spring before 
the leaves appear with great masses of little 
pink roselike flowers. 
Strong, 2 to 3 ft., $1.25 
The Pink Almond looks like the Prunus 
Triloba but is a much smaller bush. 
WHITE. Bush looks same as the pink but 
more upstanding, and absolutely covered 
with little intensely double, pure white 
flowers like little double Roses. Our finest 
and very early white shrub. Personally we 
think the White Almond much more beau- 
tiful than the pink. 
Strong, 2 to 3 ft., $1.25 
White Flowering Almond 
Philadelphus, Virginal 
PHILADELPHUS 
VIRGINAL 
Finest of the Philadelphus 
Semi-double. White. Everblooming. 
Everything considered this is the most 
sensational of all the Philadelphus. 
In fact, we regard it the most valuable 
acquisition to the flower garden of 
recent years. The bush is a moderately 
strong grower, with us attaining a 
height of 6 to 7 feet. Rather open, 
sparse foliage to make the wonderful 
blooms all the more conspicuous. Flow- 
ers pure white, semi-double, often 2 
inches in diameter. Begins to bloom 
about June 15th with us, and blooms 
profusely for about 3 weeks. Then it 
rests a few weeks and starts to bloom 
again, continuing with a small amount 
of bloom until frost. 2 to 3 ft., $1.50 
The Finest New Shrub Brought Out 
PRUNUS TRILOBA (Rose Tree of China) 
Beautiful hardy flowering Plum, covered with little full double rose-like pink blooms before 
the leaves come. Very early. Many people think this is the same as the Flowering Almond but 
6 feet. Blossoms resemble 
the Flowering Almond ex- 
cept they are larger. 
When this shrub is in 
bloom it sells well at the 
nursery — everyone likes 
it. 18 to 24 in., $1.50 
each; 2 for $2.75. 2 to 
3 ft., $1.75 each; 2 for 
$3.25.

the Prunus Triloba is much larger. It grows to a height of about 6 feet and has a spread of about
