CLETHRA ALNIFOLIA ROSEA 
The Pepper Bush is a compact neat plant of many slender, upright 
branches rarely over four to five feet high. Each branch is topped 
with finger-like clusters of small deliciously scented pink flowers. 
To many people, the fragrance is reminiscent to pepper; hence, its 
name. This is a very fine and useful shrub, especially for low moist 
places or damp woodland conditions. It grows equally well in full sun 
or shade. Here is the rare pink form of the much loved white Pepper 
Bush, giving bloom when most needed in late summer and early autumn 
with fine dark green foliage to boot. 
Each $2.50, Three $7.00, Doz. $25.00 
COTONEASTER - The Queen of Shrubs 
All the species of Cotoneaster will thrive either in shade or full sun, and 
are very suitable for growing under trees, ‘‘clothing’’ north or other walls, 
and for covering wet, dry or shady banks, etc. 
The outstanding characteristics of this genus are the beautiful, conspicu- 
ous clusters of berries, ranging in color from brilliant orange-scarlet, through 
varying shades of red to black, all preceded by the profusion of white or 
pinky white flowers wreathing the branchlets, and also in many species the 
rich autumnal coloring of their foliage. For hedges they are becoming more 
and more popular, Divaricata being especially well adapted for that purpose. 
The under-mentioned list contains most of the best recent introductions 
from China, to which country they are native. 
Apiculata (Cranberry Cotoneaster) 
Each $2.50, Three $7.00, Doz. $25.00 
A beautiful hardy dwarf Cotoneaster from Western China. This little- 
known variety grows about 2 feet high with arching branches weighted 
down during the autumn with masses of bright crimson fruits about the 
size of a Cranberry. The foilage is shiny green and beautiful through 
the year in mild climates while in cold parts of the country, it loses its 
leaves late in the fall. Perfectly hardy. 
Each $1.50, Three $4.00, Doz. $15.00, 100 $100.00 
Divaricata 
A low growing, much branched and graceful shrub from China. It’s 
ultimate height is about five feet and it is perfectly suited for 
hedges of medium height, say from 3 to 5 feet. Foliage is small and 
round, highly polished dark green. It creates a splendid effect. Bril- 
liant small egg-shaped, red fruits in autumn add to its beauty. Few 
shrubs equal Cotoneaster Divaricata in the border or as a hedge 
plant. 
Floribunda Each $2.00, Three $5.75, Doz. $20.00 
Grows into a beautifully shaped round bush. Branches slightly arching 
and heavily covered with handsome blue-green foliage. It flowers as 
freely as the English Hawthorn and in fall is covered with thousands 
of small brilliant red berries. 
Multiflora Each $2.00, Three $5.75, Doz. $20.00 
One of the finest of the species, growing 10 feet tall. The branches are 
slightly pendulent. Covered in autumn and late summer with deep 
red fruits, making a lovely picture in the autumn garden. Of easy 
culture and perfectly hardy.

Ce White Cloud 
CORNUS - Dogwood 
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 
ponidly 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 root 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 $12.50, Doz. $45.00 
From thousands of seedlings of white Dogwoods, 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 flowers 
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 wel! in shade. We offer plants about 3 feet tall, 
which is best size for transplanting. 
ENGLISH HAWTHORNS (Crataegus Oxyacantha) 
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 are 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 te 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 popu- 
lar Mountain Ash. The fruit remains on the tree well into winter. A 
rare, beautiful and unusual small tree you will enjoy in your garden 
for many, many years.
