NORWAY MAPLE, “CRIMSON KING” 
Acer Platanoides Schwedleri Nigra 
(U. S. 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 sen- 
sation over here as it did in Europe. Several specimens were propagated 
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 wiil 
do so, for you, in your garden. In two years time you will have a fast 
growing, vigorcus 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, 
Crimson King Maple Whips 
6 to 7 feet tall, Each $6.00 
ALTHEA; HIBISCUS - Rose of Sharon 
Erect growing shrubs of stately and formal shape, particularly well suited 
for screens or specimens in the shrub border. They bloom from July to frost 
and give color when most other shrubs have finished blooming. We offer 
three beautiful varieties of recent introduction, practically unknown, and 
in our estimation the three best. Their ultimate height is about 10 feet. 
Celestial Blue Each $1.75, Three $4.75, Doz. $17.50 
A magnificent, distinct and truly blue Althea. The gorgeous single 
disk-like blue flowers are produced in large amounts. Planted with our 
white variety, Snowdrift, it makes a most handsome color effect in the 
summer border. Piants we send out will bloom this year. 
Woodbridge Each $1.75, Three $4.75, Doz. $17.50 
This is an improvement over Rubis. Produces very large, wide-open, 
flaring flowers of a fine, clear rose-pink color. The best and most bril- 
liant of the pink Altheas. Its freedom of bloom is outstanding. 
W. R. Smith Each $1.75, Three $4.75, Doz. $17.50 
Large, disclike, pure white flowers which open flat and are produced in 
great numbers from early July until frost. Most white Althea blooms do 
not open fully and therefore are not showy. W. R. Smith is the one ex- 
ception. Its flowers are large, open wide and are superb. 
Cornus, White Cloud 
CALLICARPA - Violet Jewel Berry 
Purpurea Each $2.00, Three $5.75, Doz. $20.00 
Gracefully recurving branches, covered in August with thousands of 
closely set, small pink tinted flowers. These are followed in late 
September by masses of violet-purple berries which last until mid- 
winter. There are few shrubs which give as much pleasure in the garden 
or which aire so satisfactory for cutling. Ultimate height about five 
feet. We offer nice plants that will bear fruit at once. 
CLETHRA ALNIFOLIA ROSEA 
The Pepper Bush is a compact neat plant of many slender, upright 
branches rarely over four to five feet high. Each branch is topped 
with finger-like clusters of small deliciously scented pink flowers. 
To many people, the fragrance is reminiscent of pepper; hence, its 
name. This is a very fine and useful shrub, especially for low moist 
places or damp woodland conditions. It grows equally well in full sun 
or shade. Here is the rare pink form of the much loved white 
Pepper Bush, giving bloom when most needed in late summer and 
early autumn with fine dark green foliage to boot. 
Each $2.50, Three $7.00, Doz. $25.00 
CORNUS - Dogwood 
It has been our experience as well as that of many of our customers 
that medium-sized Dogwood trees establish more easily and grow more 
rapidly than large trees, unless the big trees are moved with a big ball of 
earth. 
We have therefore grown a special size plant. It is bushy, well shaped 
and about 3 feet tall, with a wonderfully nice root system. It will grow 
fast and bloom for you not later than one year after planting. 
White Cloud 2% to 3 ft., Each $4.50, Three $12.59, Doz. $45.00 
From thousands of seedlings of white Doawcods, we selected several 
years ago an outstanding variation. This distinctive tree was replanted 
and grown by itself for further observation until we were satisfied we 
had something extra fine in white Dogwoods. It is outstanding in par- 
ticular, for the immense amount of flowers it produces as well as the 
rapidity with which it starts flowering so freely. At opening the fiowers 
give a creamy yellow effect which, after a few days, changes over to 
white. When in bloom the tree is literally a white cloud; the foliage is 
almost not to be seen. Instead of just planting ordinary seedling trees, 
particularly when space is limited, try this new variety. It will reward 
you with greater masses of blooms for all your life. 
Florida rubra (Pink Dogwood) 
2% to 3 ft., Each $6.00, Three $16.00, Doz. $60.00 
There are no trees or shrubs which possess a larger measure of attrac- 
tiveness throughout the whole year. The rare pink Dogwood is similar 
in all respects to the common variety except that the flowers are a 
beautiful shade of pink. A good specimen in full bloom is a magnificent 
sight in spring. Does well in shade. We offer plants about 3 feet 
tall, which is best size for transplanting. 
WHITE DOGWOOD 
Special Offer of Medium Sized Trees 
We are able to offer you a real bargain. Two years ago we were 
very fortunate in obtaining a remarkable germination of seed with 
the result that we now have several thousand fine young trees, more 
than our normal requirements call for. So here’s your chance to plant 
large numbers of them. At the low price we are offering them, 
we cannot sell them in smaller quantities than units of five plants. 
Plants will be nicely branched, about 2 feet high, and will start 
blooming second year after planting.
