Spring Blowering Shrubs 
While these shrubs lose their leaves in late fall they are bare but a few short months and 
more than make up for their undressed winter habit by bursting forth in spring and early 
summer with a cheerful array of colorful bloom. All are hardy to frost. 
For information in regard to planting and care after planting read our booklet ‘When, 
Where and How to Plant’’. It’s yours for the asking.
