Field-Grown, Blooming Size Plants—the Ideal Size 
8112 FRENCH PUSSY WILLOW

red berries twice the size of the old Indian Currant and as red as those of the High Bush French Pussy Willow, for “Springy”’ Bouquets 
Cranberry. Don’t fail to get some of these shrubs for shady locations. 2-yr. shrubs, 75¢ each;

has. Grows anywhere and its masses of light purple blcom in early spring are a constant 
delight. Fine for tall hedges, screens or specimens. No grounds complete without this fine 
old shrub. Grows 12 to 16 feet tall. 2-yr. shrubs, 80¢ each; 3 for $2.25, postpaid.

If you love the fragrance and loveliness of blooms of the Lilacs, then you will want to 
add the Persian variety to your plantings. Its lacy, pinkish lavender panicles come along 
after the old-fashioned Purple Lilac has finished bloomng. Thus the season of Lilcas is greatly 
prolonged. Mature plants are somewhat finer in branch texture than other Lilacs and _ foliage 
is bright green and ornamental all season. Grows readily in average soil and may be kept 
in bounds by trimming when desired size is reached. Nice 2-year plants, 85¢ each; 3 for $2.35,

Gentlemen: I received my plants and Rose
