DEUTZIA 
All Deutzias are showy flowering shrubs of very bushy habit. They 
have many stems rising directly from the root, arching upward and outward, 
thickly covered with foliage which almost completely disappears in May 
under a superabundance of panicles of small, frilled, bell-like flowers. They 
are hardy throughout most of the country. 
Gracilis Each $1.50, Three $4.00, Doz. $15.00 
Seldom more than 2 or 3 feet high. This is one of the prettiest and 
most graceful of all the Deutzias. The plant makes a fountain-like 
bush attractive at all times of the year. In May it is covered with 
an astonishing profusion of delicate snowy white flowers. It does well 
in light shade and is well adapted for low edging to walks or paths, 
excellent in clumps in the foreground in the border. 
DEUTZIA CRENATA SUSPENSA 
New Snow-White Deutzia 
Each $2.00, Three $5.75, Doz. $20.00 
This beautiful, strong growing hybrid came to us from France a few 
years ago. It produces large, single, milk-white flowers in handsome 
pyramidal clusters. Shown in England a few years ago, it received an 
Award of Merit from the Royal Horticultural Society. Its low, pendu- 
lent growth and modest height, 3 to 4 feet, make it an excellent shrub 
for foreground planting. Last, but not least, is the enormous amount 
of flowers Which completely cover the bush at flowering time. 
EUONYMUS 
Alatus compactus (Dwarf Flame) 
Each $2.00, Three $5.75, Doz. $20.00 
In the Arnold Arboretum in Boston this shrub causes much comment 
each autumn for its unbelievable brilliance of foliage. Its compact 
growth, easy culture, and slow growth make it one of the outstanding 
shrubs for hedges as well as individual specimens in the garden. Its 
ultimate height is six feet. Be sure to plant one or more of them in 
your garden for a brilliant autumn foliage display. Does well in shade, 
Monstrosus Each $4.00 
A rare new shrub particularly interesting during the winter. Its bark is 
corky and spreads out in big flat wings of most interesting character. 
The common Euonymus alatus does this also but not in the same degree 
as this new variety Monstrosus. Grows beautifully in shade or full sun; 
in autumn its foliage becomes a brilliant, glowing, fiery mass. Ultimate 
height about 5 feet. Grows anywhere and is hardy anywhere. 
Patens 
This is one of the finest and easiest grown evergreen shrubs. Compact 
and shapely, and ultimately about six feet tall. Its foliage is rich green, 
somewhat like that of Euonymus Vegetus and remains on the plant 
practically throughout the entire winter and is quickly replaced by shiny 
new foliage. In spring it is a plant par excellence for growing in shady 
places, under tall trees or in sunless corners. It makes a fine hedge and 
can be pruned any way to suit. Blends beautifully with evergreens, 
rows equally weil on acid or alkaline soils and is iron-clad hardy. 
n autumn numerous orange berries add to its charm. Transplants 
easily either in fall or spring. Does excellently in shade.

HYDRANGEAS 
Acuminata (Laceflower) Each $2.00, Three $5.75, Doz. $20.00 
This new variety is outstanding for its delicately beautiful and very flat 
umbels of blooms. The small inner flowers are light blue tinted and 
surrounded by large white and rose sterile flowers. The effect created 
is delicate and lacy. The foliage is bronzy green. A choice plant of 
upright growth and perfectly hardy. Prefers a moist location but it must 
be well drained, in full sun or light shade. Plant in fall or spring. 
Domotoi (Hardy Semi-Double Hydrangea) 
Each $2.00, Three $5.75, Doz. $20.00 
This beautiful hardy variety produces large, globe-shaped clusters 
12 to 15 inches in diameter, composed of immense semi-double flow- 
ers. Very frequently the main stem produces 3 or 4 additional smaller 
bloom clusters below the main flower head, creating a veritable bou- 
quet. The flower heads are well above the foliage and last 8 to 10 
weeks or more. The color is pure pink on alkaline soil but will change 
to a magnificent light blue if the plant is grown in acid soil. It grows 
into a stout plant two to three feet in diameter and about the same 
in height, has healthy decorative foliage throughout the season, and 
last but not least it is one of the hardiest of the Hydrangeas, No 
matter if all of last season’s growth freezes back to the ground, the 
blooms are produced on the new growth. An impressive, showy Hy- 
drangea which will grow in full sun or light shade. 
Lindleyana Each $2.00, Three $5.75, Doz. $20.00 
In habit of growth, size and shape of blooms this Hydrangea is not 
unlike Acuminata. Its charm and difference is in the varied colors of 
its flowers. Hydrangea Lindleyana blooms in one cluster, snow-white, 
blue and carmine-pink flowers all in one umbel. The effect is most 
attractive as well as unique. Foliage is handsome, rich green, bronzy 
tinted, adding greatly to the attractiveness of this shrub. Height about 30 
inches, likes a moist location and does exceptionally welt in light shade. 
Praecox Each $2.00, Three $5.75, Doz. $20.00 
This little known and most unusual Hydrangea is much more attractive 
than Paniculata Grandiflora which is commonly used. It makes large 
conical heads which are quite open. The individual florets are larger and 
more widely spaced in the flower, thus giving it a graceful and artistic 
appearance. The branches are stouter and well placed, all in all a fine 
summer flowering shrub of medium height, about 3 feet when fully 
grown. Hydrangea Praecox is a fine addition to the all too short list of 
summer flowering shrubs. Hardy anywhere and of easiest culture. We 
send flowering plants about 114 to 2 feet high. 
Quercifolia Each $2.00, Three $5.75, Doz. $20.00 
The Oakleaf Hydrangea is a rather uncommon bush. It has big, artistic 
leaves, indented, and somewhat ruffled, resembling ina magnified way 
the foliage of some gigantic Oak. The flowers are not a great deal 
unlike those of Hydrangea Paniculata, and are borne in enormous, 
conical heads which are very majestic and showy. Particularly valuable 
for the brilliant autumn coloring. Does well in shade.
