VIBURNUM 
Unsurpassed Fall Color— 
Sturdy, Dependable and 
Beautiful 
This is a showy group of 
shrubs that grow from 6 to 
10 feet high. They have 
lavish flat-topped white 
flowers in June, followed by 
colorful berries in the late 
summer and fall; these us- 
ually remain through the 
winter. In the fall the fo- 
liage takes on all the au- 
tumnal hues of our native 
landscape. Ideal for mass 
planting. Do well in shade 
and are particularly hardy. 
Prefer a loam or clay soil.

SNOWBERRY - Symphoricarpos 
Their Berries are a Delightful Part of the Fall Landscape 
SNOWBERRY (Racemosus). Tiny rose-colored flowers in June 
and July, followed by large, clustered, milk-white fruits 
which are most attractive, remaining far into winter. The 
bush itself is compact in form, semi-dwarf in habit, and 
grows well in shade or sunlight. 3 to 4 feet. 
RED SNOWBERRY, Coralberry, Indian Currant (Vulgaris). 
Quite like the White Snowberry except that its fruits are red, 
and cluster in thick ropes along the weighted-down stems. 
The foliage is distinct in its fineness, and with the White 
Snowberry, is appropriate for border planting. Dwarf in 
form, growing from 3 to 4 feet high. 
CHENAULT’S RED SNOWBERRY. An improved form of 
Red Snowberry (Coralberry). A beautiful shrub that grows 
about 3 feet high. It is covered with lacy foliage and beau- 
tiful pinkish red ropes of berries that stay on from summer
