HARDY FLOWERING SHRUBS 
IT’S NOT A HOME Until Its Planted. Trees and shrubbery lend a homi- 
ness that cannot be given by anything else. Surround your home with Shade 
Trees, Fruit Trees, Shrubbery and Evergreens. They will increase the value of 
your property and add beauty and comfort to your surroundings. 
Shrubs have many uses, such as a dividing line between the flower and the vegetable 
garden or between the lawn and uncultivated ground beyond; as a background to a flower border; 
for hiding an unsightly building, fence or foundation, or they may be planted in a mixed shrubbery 
border, in which case those of short, dense growth should be planted along the front of the 
border, graduating to the tall-growing kinds at the back.

HYDRANGEA 
P. G.— 
This is the variety which blooms in August, 
the large cone-shaped heads of bloom being 
white at first then changing to pink. To 
secure that wonderful show of bloom which 
you often see, they should have a good soil, 
plenty of moisture and be protected from the 
hot south winds. An ideal location is on the 
north side of the house and beyond the range 
of the roots and shade of large trees. Severe 
pruning in spring will insure much larger 
bloom. 2-3 ft. plants that will bloom this 
year, $1.00; 3-4 ft., $1.50. 
HILLS OF SNOW— 
Large flat clusters of white blooms from June 
to September. May be used in either border or 
foundation plantings. Stands shade very well. 
Stems should be cut back to a few inches 
above the ground during the dormant season.

BLUE HYDRANGEA— 
The tops die down to the ground every 
winter, but give them a little mulch protection, 
and the crowns will grow into bushy shrubs in 
one season, 2 to 4 feet tall with attractive, 
luxuriant foliage and great masses of flowers. 
Because the flowers are borne on the new 
wood, you get blooms every year, and lots of 
them. 2 year plants, $1.50.
