It has been our experience as well as that of many of our customers 
that medium-sized Dogwood trees establish more easily and grow more 
rapidly than large trees, unless the big trees are moved with a big ball of 
earth. 
We have therefore grown a special size plant. It is bushy, well shaped 
and about 3 feet tall, with a wonderfully nice rcot system. It will grow 
fast and bloom for you not later than one year after planting. 
White Cloud 2% to 3 ft., Each $4.50, Three $12.59, Doz. $45.00 
From thousands of seedlings of white Doawoods, we selected several 
years ago an outstanding variation. This distinctive tree was replanted 
and grown by itself for further observation until we were satisfied we 
had something extra fine in white Dogwoods. It is outstanding in par- 
ticular, for the immense amount of flowers it produces as well as the 
rapidity with which it starts flowering so freely. At opening the fiowers 
give a creamy yellow effect which, after a few days, changes over to 
white. When in bloom the tree is literally a white cloud; the foliage is 
almost not to be seen. Instead of just planting ordinary seedling trees, 
particularly when space is limited, try this new variety. It will reward 
you with greater masses of blooms for all your life. 
Florida rubra (Pink Dogwood) 
2% to 3 ft., Each $6.00, Three $16.00, Doz. $60.00 
There are no trees or shrubs which possess a larger measure of attrac- 
tiveness throughout the whole year. The rare pink Dogwood is similar 
in all respects to the common variety except that the flowers are a 
beautiful shade of pink. A good specimen in full bloom is a magnificent 
sight in spring. Does well in shade. We offer plants about 3 feet 
tall, which is best size for transplanting. 
WHITE DOGWOOD 
Special Offer of Medium Sized Trees 
We are able to offer you a real bargain. Two years ago we were 
very fortunate in obtaining a remarkable germination of seed with 
the result that we now have several thousand fine young trees, more 
than our normal requirements call for. So here’s your chance to plant 
large numbers of them. At the low price we are offering them, 
we cannot sell them in smaller quantities than units of five plants. 
Plants will be nicely branched, about 12 to 15 in. high or better, 
and will start blooming second year after planting.

CORNUS KOUSA CHINENSIS 
Chinese Dogwood was brought to the Arnold Arboretum from China by 
E. H. Wilson in 1907. The flower heads are extremely large, frequently 5 to 
6 inches across, the white bracts overlapping the button-like mass of real 
flowers in the center. Experts have acclaimed this Dogwood as the finest of 
Chinese plants introduced to America. Its flowers are produced in June long 
after the American Dogwood has bloomed and remain in excellent condition 
for nearly a month. The fruits are like large strawberries, and very much 
enjoyed by the birds. Its foliage turns scarlet in autumn. This is a rare tree 
known only to a limited few. It is a magnificent conribution to the Amer- 
ican gardens and we urge you to plant one as soon as possible so you may 
enjoy this Oriental beauty soon. Ultimate height about 12 to 15 feet.

CY TISUS 
Battandieri Each $4.50, Three $12.50, Do#%$45.00 
A very fine, little-known shrub from North Africa. It is outstanding for 
its handsome foliage as well as its golden flowers. The leaves, "grgen on 
top and silvery below, make the plant conspicuous throughout tHe sum- 
mer months. !n late May and June, brilliant golden yellow Lupine-like 
flowers in tight clusters, shaped not unlike a Lilac bloom, cover the plant. 
In addition to their golden color, they have a delightful pineapple-like 
fragrance. Best grown in a warm, sunny, dry location. Most. any soil 
will do as long as it is well drained. It has grown luxuriantly in Mentor 
and flowered beautifully and survived winter temperatures down to zero. 
Ultimate height, we think, will be about 7 to 8 feet. Can be pruned to 
any height desired. 
Praecox (Warminster Broom) Each $3.50, Three $9.75, Doz. $35:00 
One of the most beautiful of all May-flowering shrubs. Grows about 
4 to 5 feet high. The twiggy evergreen branches are pendulent and 
in May are hidden under a mass of sulphur-yellow pea-shaped blooms. 
The effect created by this shrub when in bloom is most unusual and 
one of the highlights in your garden. Our original stock plants came 
from the Arnoid Arboretum in Boston where year after year they con- 
tinue to make a grand display. This is no new shrub but one not 
easily propagated in the nursery. Therefore, it is not generally offered. 
We send you 3-year plants that already have flowered in 5- or 6-in. 
pots. Pot plants invariably establish at once and this is the best way 
to transplant them.
