Look carefully around your garden. Do you find any common, overgrown shrubs or out-of-size bushes? These may be 
detracting from the beauty of your garden as a whole. Rather than assets, they quite likely are liabilities to other 
flowers growing nearby. Their long roots take valuable moisture and plant food from the soil, badly needed by other 
plants. Their branches may cast too much shade over other flowers, depriving them of essential sunlight and prevent- 
ing them from developing to the fullest extent of their beauty . . . Such shrubs and bushes that have grown too large 
for the space originally set aside for them should be removed as quickly as possible. Give your garden a “facial” by 
removing this overgrown and undesirable material, at the same time give yourself the pleasant sensation of having 
acquired an entirely new picture in your garden. 
Of definite superiority are Lemoine’s new Mockoranges and new Lilacs, as well as the new Weigelas and new 
Viburnums. 
Small trees of particular merit are the Flowering Crabs. Resembling but far surpassing Japanese Cherry Trees, they 
are noted for color, hardiness and beauty of bloom. Laburnum Vossi, a neat small tree with golden flowers, Paul’s | 
Scarlet Thorn or the new Autumn Glory Thorn and Magnolias are but a few of the interesting things for the small 
garden. | 
No finer or more carefully selected collection of Flowering Shrubs and Ornamental Trees is available anywhere. 
Make your selection TODAY as all are popular favorites. You will find that such “replacements” will complement the 
flowers in your garden, giving it an entirely new appearance, |

, CNorway Maple “Crimson King 
Acer Platanoides Schwedleri Nigra | 
(Plant Patent No. 735) 
About ten years ago a fascinating purple or maroon leaved Norway 
Maple tree was sent to America from Europe. It created the same 
sensation over here as it did in Europe. Several specimens were propa- 
gated and planted along the East Coast as well as on the Pacific Coast 
for observation. The results have been most gratifying. It proved 
perfectly hardy and happy where Maples grew and it retained its 
magnificent leaf color throughout the entire summer. The effect is 
not unlike that of the Copper Beech, but in addition, the tips of the 
branches and the young foliage are of a lighter shade and glisten 
brilliantly in the sun. One would think the tree was in bloom. 
Here truly is a rare thing in trees; a superb plant for lawn, small or 
large; street trees or specimen for contrast among other trees. Unfor- 
tunately not many big trees are available so we decided to offer our 
customers what is known as_a “whip.” This is a two-year, grafted, 
single stem tree about 6 to 7 feet tall, without side branches. When 
this “‘whip’’ is planted in the nursery it immediately starts to grow 
branches. It will do so, for you, in your garden. In two years time you 
will have a fast growing, vigorous young tree which makes it possible | 
for you to enjoy this beautiful novelty two years sooner. Our supply 
is limited and will be for several years to come. Order promptly and 
you will possess one of the finest trees you ever owned.
