border or anywhere that a fairly tall shrub is 
needed. Beautiful bright green foliage; clustered 
white blooms in May; clumps of extremely large 
ornamental bright red berries following and re- 
maining until early winter. Berries are about

Hardly any other shrubs bloom in the late autumn, 
but that is the season when the Witch-Hazel flaunts 
its brilliant yellow flowers. It blooms for a long period 
and has interesting fruits before the last blossoms have 
faded. Sometimes it is still in bloom when early snows 
come, but it is unharmed even by zero weather. Grows 
4 to 5 feet high. 75¢ each; 3 for $2.00, postpaid.

blooms. Branches start close to the ground and it may 
be grown as a shrub or trimmed up and grown as a 
dwarf tree. Good in berders or for specimens. $1.00 
each; 3 for $2.75, postpaid. 
8119 SNOW GARLAND SPIREA 
(SPIRAEA ARGUTA) 
One of the finest of the early flowering shrubs. 
Blooms just as the leaves appear. Entire bush becomes 
a mass of tiny white flowers. Foliage is cut-leaved, 
lacy and very ornamental in summer. In fall, after the 
first frost, it flames brilliantly into shades of red, gold 
and bronze. Perfectly hardy and thrives under average 
conditions. Grows ‘to about 4 to’5 feet tall, making it 
a valuable addition to the list of medium sized shrubs.

This brilliant Barberry is becoming more popular every 
year. Bronze-red leaves during the summer turn to fiery

BARBERRY

erally planted or has so

fault, and can be grown 
in shade, moist, dry, 
sunny locations. When 
grown as specimen 
plants or as an edging 
to taller shrubs its 
graceful arching branch- 
es covered with luxur- 
iant green foliage in 
summer and _ flashing 
red berries all winter 
make a most pleasing 
sight. 55¢ each; 3 for 
$1.45, postpaid.

Gentlemen: 
I wish to send you a word of 
appreciation for the fine, sturdy 
shrubs which I received April 27th. 
I was able to get about half of them 
planted the next day and the re- 
mainder almost a week later, but 
every one has started growing in 
spite of the very dry month of May.
