AZALEA AUSTRINA 
Osmanthus fragrans (Tea or Sweet Olive.) 
Large shrub or small tree, with small, creamy 
white, highly fragrant blooms over a very long 
season. Every Southern garden should have 
one or more. 18 to 24 in., balled and bur- 
lapped, $2.50; 2 to 3 ft., balled and burlapped,

Prunus Mume (Flowering Apricot). The first 
flowering tree to bloom after Christmas.

with a profusion of small double flowers cover- 
ing the branches in January and February. 
Two colors: rose-pink and pure white. 2 to 
3 ft., bare roots, $3.50; 3 to 4 ft., bare roots,

Pyracantha formosana (Red Hawthorn). One 
of the most valuable of all evergreens for the 
South. In the spring the large shrub or small 
tree, with its many branches and compact 
growth, is a profusion of attractive white 
bloom, followed by berries which are red, 
maturing by November and holding on the 
plants throughout the winter. Sometimes 
hard to transplant from open ground, we grow 
these now im containers. Plants in 1-gallon 
can, $1.00 to $1.50 each.

In limited supply we have other trees and shrubs and invite correspondence. 
All prices in this catalog are for plants only; the purchaser pays transportation, 
except that roses are priced delivered. While plants without soil are packed 
light and transportation costs are not excessive, we frankly do not urge cus- 
tomers at a long distance to buy from us balled and burlapped plants, such as 
hollies and magnolias, unless willing to pay the rather high express charges in 
order to obtain desired varieties that may not be obtainable elsewhere. We 
want all the business we can get, but we don’t want our customers to feel 
burned up with heavy transportation bills on balled and burlapped stock. In 
the South Georgia and North Florida area we make occasional deliveries by 
truck, saving the customer delivery charges. We invite those who can possibly 
do so to come to the nursery, select your plants and take them with you or 
have us deliver by first truck.
