TREES IN SHRUB FORM 
Because of the demand, we are now growing the 
following trees in shrub form. While they grow 
larger than the ordinary shrubs, they do find a 
use where you might want a little height and yet 
give you shrub effect. Use them in the back- 
ground of your shrub plantings, along drives and 
as individual specimens.

Eleyi Crab 
Cistena Plum

where. Coral-red berries. 2-3 ft. $2.00.

gle white flowers in April-May, followed by scarlet 
fruit that hangs on all winter. Very attractive and 
showy. 2-3 ft., $2.00; 3-4 ft., $2.50. 
WEIGELA 
Bristol Ruby. Our newest Weigela. Hardier and more 
vigorous, it makes a shapely, thrifty plant with at- 
tractive rich green foliage. Color is soft ruby red, 
extremely pleasing in effect and without harsh 
tone. The bush is perfectly formed, a well rounded 
specimen requiring very little pruning because it 
flowers well from old wood; no die-back or uneven 
growth at any time. We have discontinued all other 
varieties in favor of this one. 2-3 ft., $2.00.
