A MOST SELECT LIST OF 
lowering Shrike 
Ornamental Trees 
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 the other flowers, depriving them of essential sunlight and 
preventing 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 Mockranges 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. 
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, W. R. Smith, it makes a handsome color effect in the 
summer border. Plants we send out will bloom this year. 
Hamabo Each $2.00, Three $5.75, Doz. $20.00 
This most interesting cheerfully colored Althea is not new but prac- 
tically unknown in this country. It is a great favorite in Europe and 
we can quite understand why. For several years we have tested it at 
Wayside and found it as hardy as any of the others. But it is so ar- 
resting that everyone visiting us has wanted a plant of it. Flowers 
are white and red, charmingly colored, brilliant and gay, and con- 
trast beautifully with the dark green foliage. Here is a real contribu- 
tion to the summer flowering shrubs. The plants we send you will 
flower only a few months after planting. 
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 
brilliant 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 uniil frost. Most white Althea blooms 
do not open fully and therefore are not showy. W. R. Smith is the one 
exception. Its flowers are large, open wide and are superb. 
BETULA‘.- Birch 
Pendula gracilis (Cutleaf Birch) 
Each $3.00, Three $8.50, Doz. $32.00 
Its graceful weeping branches, finely cut foliage and shimmering white 
bark make this one of the most beautiful ornamental trees. Even in 
winter, without foliage, the delicate pendulous branches make a lovely 
silhouette against the drab colors of other trees in the background. 
It is not too particular as to soil but prefers a moist location and a 
sunny spot.

15-18 in. Each $5.00, Three $14.00, Doz. $50.00 
Magnificent purple-red foliage, gracefully laciniated; one of the best 
of small-leaved shrubs. It is attractive at all seasons and makes a 
handsome specimen on the lawn or a colorful group in the foreground 
of the shrub border.
