The New Fragrant Snowball 
THE FINEST FRAGRANT SHRUB IN A DECADE 
This is the famous and splendid Hybrid from V. Carlesi and V. mac- 
rocephalum, which originated in England just before the war. The origi- 
nator turned this wonderful shrub over to Wayside Gardens for introduction 
in this country. 
It is absolutely hardy and has gone through several winters here in 
Mentor with temperatures as much as ten degrees below zero. It is of 
branching habit and quick growth, growing about six to seven feet high 
and can be pruned to any size or shape desired. Does equally well in acid 
soil or those which are alkaline. 
It is a most profusely flowering shrub with large cymose clusters of 
blossoms which may be as much as six inches across, rarely ever smaller 
than four inches, either flattened or globular, mostly the latter. The 
flowers are exceedingly fragrant, rivaling its seed parent.

It is a deciduous shrub and carries a wealth of foliage. The leaves are 
Pearce identical with those of Carlesi but in the autumn are brilliantly 
colored. 
This Hybrid was shown at the Royal Horticultural Show in London be- 
fore the war where it received the highest awards and praise. It has 
taken quite some time to test it here in Mentor and we claim without 
reservation that it is one of the finest spring-flowering shrubs we have 
ever seen. 
We can supply the following sizes: Each Three Doz.
