@New Frorsythias 
Lynwood Gold 
This splendid new Forsythia originated in Ireland and we predict it will 
replace, before many years, all other varieties of deep yellow color. 
It is one of several fine new shrubs we have obtained in Europe for 
introduction in this country. The branches are erect and literally smoth- 
ered under golden yellow flowers from top to bottom. Not only are 
the flowers produced in the most profuse manner but the individual 
blooms are better and fuller in form as well as of greater substance, 
apparently never minding bad weather. For a magnificent show of 
golden yellow, there is nothing better. It is superb for cutting and 
flowering in the house during the winter months. It has been care- 
fully tested for several years in Mentor and we recommend it without 
hesitation. Ultimate height 5 to 7 feet depending on conditions. 
Lynwood Gold Forsythia is a worth-while companion to the fine new 
and popular pale yellow variety, Spring Glory, we have been introducing 
during the past few years. 
We offer nice 2- to 3-ft. plants at: Each $3.00, Three $8.50, 
Doz. $32.00 
Spring Glory 
Forsythia Spring Glory is without question the loveliest of all the Golden 
Bells. When seen in bloom, it is a sight not easily forgotten, its large 
pale yellow flowers completely cover the branches in such masses that 
they literally bend with their weight. It would not be far amiss to say 
that it produces twice the number of blossoms of the common For- 
sythia. Further, the pale yellow color is very pleasing and _ brilliant, 
infinitely more attractive and cheerful than that of the varieties now 
in general use. If you desire a sparkling and cheerful display in your 
garden in early spring, plant a few Forsythia Spring Glory. There’ is 
nothing which will make you forget winter as quickly nor announce 
spring as flamboyantly. Spring Glory is ‘‘the variety’’ to grow for flow- 
ering indoors. Branches cut during January and February burst into 
bloom without any trouble in a few days and make a gorgeous show 
in the house during the winter months at practically no cost to you.

D aphne 
Daphnes are lovely, fragrant plants and the two varieties offered give 
bloom from very early spring to May and, occasionally, through the sum- 
mer. Both are of delicious fragrance and dainty, compelling beauty. They 
are hardy with little protection except in the coldest sections of the 
country. 
Culture. They prefer a sunny position in well drained, sandy soil. In 
order to keep the evergreen foliage perfect, protect it with a little straw 
during the coldest part of the winter. The plants will withstand tempera- 
tures as low as 10 below zero. Water sparingly in summer. Daphnes will 
not grow well in cold, poorly drained soil. 
*Cneroum (Garland Flower) 
These shrubs are of spreading habit and do not grow over 8 to 12 
inches high; producing delicately perfumed, rose-pink blossoms. The 
flowers completely cover the plant not only in spring but again in 
early autumn. As an edging plant in front of evergreens or shrubs, it 
is unequalled. It also forms a splendid low hedge along garden walks 
and around flower beds.

This is one of the finest garden gems, not only rare but beautiful. 
In March and April, Lilac-like blue flowers are produced on grace- 
fully pendulant branches before the foliage appears. Its ultimate 
height is about 3 feet. It can be grown in flower border, rock gar- 
den or in front of shrub border. Likes well drained, ordinary gar- 
den soil but will thrive without protection in localities where tem- 
peratures go below zero. Transplants with absolute success _ if 
pot-grown plants are set out. We offer fine young plants about 
12 to 15 inches tall in pots. 
ONew Htardy Daphne "Somerset 
(Plant Patent No. 315) 
This deliciously fragrant and easy to grow Hybrid Daphne orig- 
inated in England a few years ago. It has received the highest 
honors from The Royal Horticultural Society of Great Britain. 
When first shown in London, England, it was one of the highlights 
of the show. It has been on test at Wayside Gardens for many 
years, and has successfully wintered without protection all kinds 
of weather that occurred during 
those several years. 
During May and early June 
the plants are covered with de- 
lightfully scented blush-pink, 
star-shaped flowers in clusters 
6 to 8 inches long. The fra- 
grance is not unlike that of 
Daphne Cneorum or Viburnum 
Carlesi. It grows and flowers ex- 
ceptionally well in light shade. 
The foliage is rich dark 
green, giving the plants the ap- 
pearance of Boxwood. It re- 
mains green in northern Ohio 
until the beginning of March 
when the new leaves push the 
old ones off the branches. In 
those sections of the country 
where temperatures are moder- 
ate, Daphne Somerset is ever- 
green. 
Left unclipped it grows about 
5 feet high and 4 feet wide. 
It is a lovely low shrub for in 
front of the shrub border and 
blends happily with hardy plants 
in the flower border as well as 
with other evergreens. 
Visitors to our nursery, pro- 
fessional as well as amateur, all 
have admired it.. Mr. F. F. 
Rockwell, garden expert and 
writer of many horticultural 
books and articles, remarked 
when he saw it in bloom this 
spring: ‘‘Here is one of those 
rare things that happens once 
every 25 years or so.’ It is a 
choice plant with a great fu- 
ture. rk

FLOWERING PLANTS GROWING IN 5-INCH POTS 
Daphne Somerset grows best and fastest when it is transplanted 
while not too big. We, therefore, offer nice plants from pots which 
will bloom the first year. They average about 10 to 12 inches tall 
and in one year will grow to almost twice this size. 
Each $2.50, Three $7.00, Doz. $25.09
