Fuchsia Magellanica 
FUCHSIA 
Culture. Ordinary good loam, well drained. They do not like heavy, 
wet clay soils. Do well in~shady places where it is difficult to flower other 
plants. Magellanica is a hardy variety, wintering over outdoors if the plants 
are protected with straw during the winter. 
Magellanica Each 90c, Three $2.25, Doz. $6.50 
This most interesting shrub came to us from the New York Botanicai 
Garden, where it has proven entirely hardy. It is in bloom all summer 
long until stopped by frost. The ruby-red pendent flowers are pro- 
duced by the hundreds, flowering just as freely in full sun as in light 
shade. A most interesting plant for the flower border or rock garden, 
blooming all summer. Like all Fuchsias, they are well adapted for shady 
locations. We advise protection anywhere north of Philadelphia. 
Magellanica alba Each 90c, Three $2.25, Doz. $6.50 
Has the same habit of growth as Magellanica but the pendent flowers 
are blush-white. A charming variety which also is somewhat hardier. 
Magellanica Folia Variegata Each 90c, Three $2.25, Doz. $6.50 
This is the variegated or marbled foliage form of Magellanica. The 
leaves are handsomely colored in shades of pink, bronze, and soft 
yellow. This foliage coloration is most attractive and very much 
Increases the interest and usefulness of this hardy Fuchsia. 
Salk Ftawthorns 
(Crataegus Oxyacantha) 
State regulotions forbid the sending of Crataegus, Cydonia and Malus 
into Colorado and Utah. 
The English Haw or Hawthorn is a lovely flowering shrub or small tree 
about 15 feet high, with spreading branches and stout spines. The leaves 
are broad, the 3 to 5 lobes much toothed. Its flowers are in large clusters 
and produced in immense quantities. The fruits are scarlet. They are 
especially well suited for the small garden or as specimens on the lawn 
where a Maple would be too big and create too much shade. 
Paul’s Scarlet English Hawthorn 
Each $5.00, Three $14.00, Doz. $50.00 
This is a brilliant rosy red, double-flowered variety. One of the choicest 
Ornamental trees in existence. Foolproof and hardy; sure blooming. It 
is a joy to see it each spring. 
Crataegus, Autumn Glory Each $5.50, Three $15.00 
This magnificent Hybrid Thorn grows into a medium sized tree about 
15 to 18 feet high. Makes a shapely head and has deep green foli- 
age. In spring it is very attractive with its many big clusters of white 
blooms. But in early autumn it really is a sight to behold when the 
immense clusters of giant berries turn a brilliant red. In our opinion 
it is even more spectacular than the well known and popular Moun- 
tain Ash. The fruit remains on the tree well into the winter. A fare, 
beautiful and unusual small tree you will enjoy in your garden for 
many, many years. (See page 133.)

Quercifolia 
Hydrangea Quercifolia 
HYDRANGEAS 
Acuminata (Laceflower) Each $2.00, Three $5.75, Doz. $20.00 
This new variety is outstanding for its delicately beautiful and very flat 
umbels of blooms. The small inner flowers are light blue tinted and 
surrounded by large white and rose sterile flowers. The effect created 
is delicate and lacy. The foliage is bronzy green. A choice plant of 
upright growth and perfectly hardy. Prefers a moist location but it must 
be well drained, in full sun or light shade. Plant in fall or spring. 
Domotoi (Hardy Semi-Double Hydrangea) 
Each $2.00, Three $5.75, Doz. $20.00 
This beautiful hardy variety produces large, globe-shaped clusters 
12 to 15 inches in diameter, composed of immense semi-double flow- } 
ers. Very frequently the main stem produces 3 or 4 additional smaller 
bloom clusters below the main flower head, creating a veritable bou- 
quet. The flower heads are well above the foliage and last 8 to 10 
weeks or more. The color is pure pink on alkaline soil but will change 
to a magnificent light blue if the plant is grown in acid soil. It grows 
into a stout plant two to three feet in diameter and about the same 
in height, has healthy decorative foliage throughout the season, and 
last but not least it is one of the hardiest of the Hydrangeas. No 
matter if all of last season’s growth freezes back to the ground, the 
blooms are produced on the new growth. An impressive, showy Hy- 
drangea which will grow in full sun or light shade. 
Each $2.00, Three $5.75, Doz. $20.00 
The Oakleaf Hydrangea is a rather uncommon bush. It has big, artistic 
leaves, indented, and somewhat ruffled, resembling in a magnified way 
the foliage of some gigantic Oak. The flowers are not a great deal 
unlike those of Hydrangea Paniculata, and are borne in enormous, 
conical heads which are very majestic and showy. Particularly valuable 
for the brilliant autumn coloring. Does well in shade.
