Shrubs

Mother Nature has been very kind to us who
live in the great Northwest. She has given us
a wealth of flowering shrubs that will benefit
the homes in every part of this great region. But our expert gardeners
and plant breeders have been able to cross most of these, and thus
have produced varieties that far excel the plants we have found in our
grandfathers’ gardens. Just as livestock breeders have developed
belter prize animals that continue to break records, just so every
season the plant specialists develop new varieties that surpass the
old ones both in bloom and in foliage. For this reason certain va-
rieties that were once favorites are d scarded by prominent nursery-
men and appear as bargains in many advertised lists.

It is the purpose of this nursery to keep up-to-date and grow for
our patrons the newer and improved varieties. It costs no more to
grow a better variety than an inferior one, but the satisfaction is
much more real. In this catalog we offer our patrons a well chosen
list that may be relied upon as “BEST OF THE WEST.”

“Where shall I plant flowering shrubs?” Along the foundation of
the house, in the corners of the walk, along the borders of the lot and
| at the back of the lawn. Plant these in groups so they appear natural.
Select your plants so they will give a succession of bloom from early
Spring until late Fall, so they will give you variety and form and color,
and so they will provide Autumn coloring and late Fall berries.

These problems are all made clear in our little booklet entitled the “Amateur’s Guide
to Landscape Gardening” which may be had for the asking. This nursery provides a
landscape department to assist its patrons. Feel free to ask for help. Remember our aim —
to furnish the home owners of this great Northwest region with a better list of plants, to
supply them with well grown, well developed plants of strong grades that are safely handled
and packed so they will grow, and to give to these home owners a sensible service at a popu-
lar price. Read the following pages and proceed to add beauty and value to your home
grounds.

New Minnesota

PLUMS

They Look Like

California Plums—
But Taste Better

EW people realize that we can now
grow plums in Minnesota that rival the
choice plums of California in size and
productiveness, and far surpass them in
flavor. They have the sprightliness of our best
northern varieties, combined with the smooth
flavor and firm flesh of the southern plum; and
being ripened on the tree the rich flavor is fully
developed. The puckery taste of our common
plums has been entirely done away with in these
new Minnesota varieties. They have combined
in them a strain of the Japanese Plum and are
free from the plum pocket fungus., a disease
which causes the ordinary plums to swell up and
become hollow early in the summer.

Splendid profits await the enterprising
fruit grower who plants some of these new plum
trees now and takes advantage of the Million
Dollar Market Lying Right at Our Door.

1-2 Bushel of Monitor Plums, Picked from One
Small Tree 28 months After Planting

has a delicious flavor. This variety; like the
others here described; is a regular annual bearer,
often producing some fruit the year after plant-
ing and getting into full bearing very quickly
thereafter. The pit is very small for a fruit
of its size. First blossoming period.

UNDERWOOD. The Underwood is valuable
because of its large, early fruit and annual bear-
ing. It is the earliest of the large plums, at-
taining a size of 1% inches in diameter. The
tree is a vigorous grower, the limbs being strong
and well distributed and are able to carry great
loads of fruit. Fruit, attractively red with
fairly firm juicy flesh, small pit, clingstone splen-
did quality, hangs well to the tree, ripening ov-
er a long period, August 1 to 15, enabling three
pickings to be made. The Underwood is an an-
nual bearer. These features appeal alike to the
commercial grower and to the home orchardist.

WANETA was originated by Professor Hansen
at the Dakota Experiment Station. It is with-
out question the best one of the numerous plums
that have been sent out by him. The Waneta
attains a size of two inches in diameter. Fruit,
a dark purplish red overlaid with blue bloom ;

MONITOR is one of the market plums we have
been looking for here in the Northwest. It has
high quality, firm flesh and a large size — some
being more than 1^4 inches in diameter. It is
very productive and a regular bearer. The
Monitor is an unusually vigorous grower and
naturally produces a compact, well shaped head
without pruning. The limbs are strongly
shouldered so that they will carry heavy loads
of fruit. The following features of the Monitor
show why it is one of the best for you to plant:

1. It is a regular annual bearer.

2. Fruit large size, dark red.

3. Firm flesh, excellent flavor.

4. Valuable for home use or the market.

5. Limbs have strong forks so carry heavy

loads of fruit without splitting.

Mr. C. H. Andrews, June 4, 1925.

Andrews Nursery Company, Faribault, Minnesota.
My dear Mr. Andrews:

I have your letter of recent date regarding the
new Minnesota plums. These new fruits, which have
attracted so much attention in this and other states,
seem to me to be especially well adapted to our north-
ern conditions. They are the product of crosses be-
tween hardy, native Minnesota plums and the high
quality Japanese plum and have combined to a re-
markable degree the good qualities of both their
parents.

From a commercial standpoint there seems to be
no reason why they cannot sell equally well on the
fresh fruit basis with the imported plums from Cal-
ifornia since they are the equal in size, color and
qualitv of those western varieties.

Very truly yours W. H. ALDERMAN

ZUMBRA CHERRIES

Photo taken in orchard of one of our customers,
G. L. Vessey, Polk Go., Wisconsin,
two years after planting.

RIGINATED at the Minnesota State Fruit Breed-
ing Farm. It is a combination of the sweet black
cherry with the hardy Minnesota Pin Cherry and
the Dakota Sand Cherry. Zumbra has combined the size
and somewhat of the flavor of the sweet black cherry with
the hardiness of the two native fruits. All our Zumbra
trees are budded or grafted on hardy native plum roots.
This insures perfect hardiness. It thrives even in Manitoba.

Bears Early. Zumbra trees set out in the spring bear
heavy crops 16 months after being planted. They often
bloom the same year planted.

Large Size. The Zumbra Cherries are about the size
of the Sweet Black Cherries coming here from California
and are borne in thick clusters on two-year old wood. Rip-
ens in August and the birds don’t bother it.

Sweet Cherry Flavor. Zumbra has a flavor similar to
the sweety black cherries so extensively grown in the orch-
ards of Oregon and California , whence they are shipped
to all parts of the country, finding a ready sale at 30c to
50c a pound. Color is very dark, nearly black when ripe;
flesh firm; sometimes tinged with red when fully mature;
stone very small and is readily squeezed out; quality good
with a flavor and crispness somewhat resembling its sweet
cherry parent. Especially recommended for sauce and pre-
serves. When cooked; the sweet cherry flavor is especially
noticeable.

Mr. C. H. Andrews, July 29, 1924.

Andrews Nursery Company, Faribault, Minnesota.
My Dear Mr. Andrews:

I am glad to note that you think well of the
Zumbra and that you are preparing to advertise it
widely in this and surrounding states. It is my per-
sonal belief that the Zumbra is a valuable fruit for
northern United States and Canada, especially in the
regions where the sweet and sour cherries can-
not be grown. Its extreme hardiness, its
dwarf habit, its unusual productivity and its
habit of bearing fruit the second year makes it
favorite with the fruit grower. When allowed to
ripen thoroughly it takes on a rich black or purplish
black color and has a flavor resembling somewhat
that of the sweet cherry. It has also a crisp flesh
similar to the cherry. I would especially recommend
its use for canning and sauce.

Like the plums and many of the cherries it requires
some other variety planted nearby for pollination pur-
poses. We have found that the Compass is an ex-
cellent pollinator for this variety and that the Nicollet
also pollinates it splendidly.

Very truly yours, W. H. ALDERMAN,

Chief, Division of Horticulture.

BITS OF BEAUTY FOR YOUR HOME

Barberry, Japanese ™Lwecuo ™t

One of the best all around shrubs for the North-
west, thriving under all conditions. Slender, grace-
ful branches with fine, bright green foliage, turn-
ing to brilliant crimson and orange in the Fall.
Branches are covered with small, yellow flowers
in June, followed by scarlet berries that stay on
the bushes almost all Winter. One of the best
for shrubbery borders and low hedges. 2 to 3 feet.

Caragana or Pea Tree ^arreaf “nsh

One of our hardiest desirable shrubs. During early
May the bush is covered with bright yellow, pea-
shaped flowers, followed by long, slender pods.
Pretty as a lawn shrub or for hedges. Especially
valuable in dry locations and where soil conditions
are not the most favorable. 6 to 12 feet.

Cnrtiinz ^sihirirn (Red Twi§§ed Cornus).
KsUrrillb OlUiriLU A tall> spreading shrub,

which is extremely hardy, and splendid for hedges
or groups of shrubbery. Panicles of white flowers
in June are followed by clusters of berries. Its
chief beauty, however, is in its bark, which turns
bright crimson as Autumn approaches. Planted
extensively for Winter effect. 6 to 10 feet.

Cornus, Variegated <£££“ ep®a^

red branches and beautiful silver variegated fo-
liage. 4 feet.

Cranberry, Highbush

native shrub. Flowers white in flat clusters. Very
decorative in fruit which begins to color by the
end of July, remaining on the branches and keep-
ing its bright scarlet color until the following
Spring. Ornamental as well as useful. A large-
growing shrub closely allied to the Snowball. 8 feet.

C'nrnlhprrii (Symphoricarpos vulgaris).
K^UI Uiuer I y July. Resembles S. racemosus
in growth but is a little more compact. The flow-
ers are borne in dense terminal spikes. They are
followed in late Summer by dark purplish red
berries, hanging in clusters. Well adapted for
shady places. 3 to 4 feet.

Cotoneaster or Quince Berry

(C. acutifolia). An attractive, beautifully formed
shrub with thick, glossy leaves turning red in the
Fall, giving it the most attractive appearance. The
flowers, which appear during the early Summer, are
followed by large, black berries, which remain on
the bush nearly all Winter. Absolutely hardy and
stands partial shade. Splendid in shrub plant-
ings and unexcelled for hedges. 5 to 6 feet.

Japanese Barberry.

Currant, Alpine or Mountain

(Ribes alpinum). A most desirable low-growing
shrub. On account of retaining its foliage close
to the ground it makes a desirable plant for shrub-
bery borders. One of the best shrubs for shady
places; excellent for hedges. 4 feet.

Currant, Yellow Flowering (a„‘r|!

um). Large, yellow, showy flowers are produced
in clusters early in the Spring. Later the bush is
covered with a crop of dark brown or black ber-
ries which may be eaten. The leaves are bright,
lustrous green, densely covered with yellowish dots
when young. The form of the shrub is uprignt
and will usually attain a growth of 5 to 8 feet.

J^orn T onf (Sambucus canadensis

i laciniata). This is one

of our finest shrubs. A large bush, covered with
clusters of large, flat flowers, giving en masse
somewhat the effect of the hydrangea. The foliage
is lacelike, with a cut fern appearance. The
branches are long and graceful, drooping nearly to
the ground. The flowers are followed by edible
black berries. The plant is absolutely hardy any-
where. This Fern Leaf Elder should be found in
every dooryard. 5 to 6 feet.

Hydrangea Paniculata. Lilac. Hydrangea Arborescens.

Honeysuckle, Morrow’s Mo°rrowoa

This is one of the best quick growing, compact,
“filler” shrubs we have. The foliage is bright
green, the blossoms cream colored, appearing in
April. The red and coral fruits follow from June
to August. In dry or moist soil, shade or sun, city
or country, this variety will thrive. 6 feet.

Common White. Similar to the above, with pure
white flowers. 9 to 12 feet.

Japan Tree Lilac (S. japonica). Late June. A
distinct variety forming a pyramidal and upright
shrub or small tree. It has broad, handsome,
dark green foliage and bears large heads of
creamy white flowers very late in the season,
a month after the common Lilacs. 10 to 15 feet.

Honeysuckle, Tartarian latTrica?.

Pink. April. This is very attractive in blossom,
being one of the few early pink-flowering shrubs.
Has bright red berries that stay on all Summer.
7 to 9 feet.

Hydrangea, Paniculata ^oraf.raAu-

gust and September. The showiest of all Autumn
flowering shrubs, bearing immense heads of creamy
white nowers which, with the approach of cold
weather, turn to rich shades of pink and coppery
red. Taken into the house before frost, they hold
their form and color and make attractive decora-
tions throughout the Winter. 4 feet.

Hydrangea, Hills of Snow

(Hydrangea arborescens grandiflora), or SNOW-
BALL HYDRANGEA. A new valuable shrub with
large snow-white blossoms of immense size. The
habit of the plant is excellent, the foliage finely
finished. Commences to bloom in June and con-
tinues until early Fall. Coming into bloom at a
season when most shrubs are through flowering,
makes it a valuable acquisition in any garden.
Recommended as one of our best shrubs. 3 to 4
feet.

T UnCS A11 through the North the Lilac is a
Avftuco popular and universal flower. They
are decidedly most effective when planted in
groups. The Lilacs produce an abundance of
flowers in Spring and early Summer, filling the
air with their delicate fragrance. Lilacs have no
diseases nor pests. They are easy to grow and are
a constant delight.

Common Purple. This is the old-fashioned flow-
er so familiar in our grandmothers’ gardens.
Some of these ought to be in every collection.
9 to 12 feet.

Josikaea. A distinct sort of treelike habit, pro-
ducing purple flowers in June when most other
Lilacs have ceased blooming. 6 to 8 feet.

Persian (S. persica). May and June. A distinct
species of rather smaller growth than S. vul-
garis. The branches are slender and straight
with smaller and narrower leaves. The bright
purple flowers are borne in loose panicles. A
very graceful form. 5 to 6 feet.

Villosa. Flowers light purple in bud and nearly
white when open. Fragrant; late bloomer. 8
to 10 feet.

New Sorts of Lilacs

During the past few years many new sorts of
Lilacs have been introduced. These newer va-
rieties are far superior to the old type. They have
all the hardiness and fragrance of the common
Lilacs but far excel them in size of bloom and va-
riety of coloring. They blossom unusually soon
after being planted — a small bush only two feet
high often being covered with bloom.

We recommend the following as being the best.
S — Single D — Double

Alphonse Lavallee. D. Blue shading to violet;
very large.

Congo. S. Flowers dark wine-red; large and
showy.

Ludwig Spaeth. S. Deep purplish red in large,
long, dense panicles.

Marie Legraye. S. Large panicles of white bloom
borne in great profusion.

Mme. Casimir Perier. D. Creamy white; superb.
Monument Carnot. D. Immense truss of gor-
geous bloom.

President Grevy. D. A beautiful blue; individual
flowers very large and double.

Wm. Robinson. S. Nearly red; long spikes;
handsome.

ringa). White. June. The old-fashioned Mock
Orange, well known to everyone because of its
waxy white, fragrant flowers. It proves a specially
good plant for every use, the foliage being large,
oval in shape and deep green. For cut flowers it
is valuable and pruning in this manner often keeps
the bush confined where it is not desirable to have
it grow too tall. Very valuable for background,
screen or grouping. 7 to 8 feet.

Philadelphus Lemoinei r\negT)0.inefhe

blooms of this variety, and of the other sorts orig-
inated by Lemoine, are considerably larger than
those of the common Mock Orange, although the
growth is not so tall. In June the shrub is covered
with fragrant, semi-double blooms. 4 to 5 feet.

we have. See cut on page 2. 5 feet.

Purple Leaved Plum

(Newport). We
have long need-
ed a purple-leaved shrub that was hardy to set off
our plantings in the North. This splendid orna-
mental shrub is absolutely hardy here. The leaves
are an intense, deep purple from early Spring until
late Fall. In the Spring it is covered with beau-
tiful white, plumlike blossoms. Grows to be a
fair sized tree. Very hardy and ornamental. 10
feet.

Philadelphus Coronarius.

Spirea Arguta.

Qrijrnpn In the Spiraea family are found
\DfJllUfcUr qU}te a number of varieties, some
of which differ so widely that a person unacquaint-
ed with them would never realize that they had
any points in common. Some of them grow in the
form of small, compact bushes, while others have
long, arching branches and open heads. Prac-
tically all of them bloom profusely, and if a good
selection of varieties is made, some of them will
be in bloom at all times during the Summer sea-
son. All of them are extremely hardy and quite
easy to grow. They will succeed best in moist,
fertile soil with sunny exposure, but they will
bloom creditably almost anywhere. There is al-
most no place about the grounds for which some
Spiraea will not be suitable.

The following are the best of the Spiraea family.

Anthony Waterer. A valuable and distinct va-
riety growing about two feet high. Flowers a
bright crimson, commencing to bloom in June
and continuing through the Summer and Fall.
Where a low growing shrub is desired, no other
variety will produce such an abundance of showy
flowers and give such general satisfaction. Sure
to bloom the first season. 2 feet.

Arguta (Snow Garland). Semi-dwarf. The Snow
Garland is one of the newer varieties that has
been developed from a cross between the well
known Bridal Wreath and Thunberg’s Spiraea.
Its rapid gain in public favor gives promise that
it may become as popular as its parent, the
Spiraea Van Houttei. The Snow Garland is
the first of the Spiraea family to bloom. In
early Spring, while tulips are still in flower and
before the leaves are out, it bursts into full
bloom with a profusion of white flowers that
cover its graceful branches like a bank of snow.
It is ideal to plant in front of Spiraea Van
Houttei. As its flowers begin to fade it seems
to pass to the unfolding Bridal Wreath, thus
giving six weeks of the much desired Spiraea
bloom. The foliage of this plant is very attract-
ive, producing pleasing Autumn colors and much
of the foliage is retained throughout the Winter.
Perfectly hardy. 3 to 4 feet.

Callosa alba. Dwarf wnite Spiraea of bushy, sym-
metrical form. Keeps in flower nearly all
Summer. A valuable small shrub. 2 feet.

Froebeli. Flowers bright rosy red in flat clusters,
produced during July and August. This is one
of our unest Spiraeas, excellent as a border
snrub. Foliage turns purple in the Fall. Branches
willowy. Should be in every garden. 3 feet.

Aurea (Golden Spiraea). One of the best of our
yellow-leaved shrubs. Holds its color all Sum-
mer. 5 to 6 feet.

Sorbifolia. A splendid Spiraea growing to a
height of about five feet, covered with large,
clean, bright green leaves that resemble the
leaves of the Mountain Ash. Produces a world
of great white feathery blooms about six inches
long by four inches in diameter. A splendid
Spiraea to plant about the house. 4 to 5 feet.

Van Houttei. Often called Bridal Wreath. If
there is one shrub that stands pre-eminently
above all other ornamental plants, it is undoubt-
edly the Spiraea Van Houttei. The long branches,
curving and reaching to the ground, are cov-
ered the entire length with lovely white blos-
soms, like a great fountain of snow. It begins
to blossom about the time the Spirea Arguta is
through, thus giving a succession of similar
bloom lasting for four weeks or more. Ex-
tremely hardy; will thrive anywhere. This va-
riety can be used in any location for hedging,
grouping or for mass effect. 5 to 6 feet.

Sumac, Cut-Leaved Staghorn

(Rhus typhina laciniata). A new shrub and one
of the most beautiful plants in nature. It is of
spreading habit, with large, long, finely cut, lace-
like, wonderfully graceful leaves. The foliage is
a pleasing green, always healthy and clean, and
turns in Autumn to varied hues of pink, crimson
and gold. The effect, resembling as it does, soft
lace, is one of elegance and beauty. See cut. 6
to 10 feet.

Hedges — Beautify as Well as Serve

Within the past few years hedges have come to be very popular. They give privacy and protection;
at the same time add greatly to the beauty of each individual place. Home grounds that are not finished
off with a hedge present the appearance of a picture without a frame. From the list below you can
select a suitable hedge for any place.

Barberry , Japanese £u°‘t. sFu0b’eca‘ L0w-

growing, informal hedge nothing is lovelier than the
Japan Barberry (Berberis Thunbergi). It is ab-
solutely hardy, thorny enough to make an effective
hedge against small animals, and requires no prun-
ing, as it does not grow tall. The small, light
green leaves are beautiful all Summer, and in the
Fall turn a brilliant scarlet; and stay on until
quite late. Even after the leaves are gone, the
scarlet berries give a striking touch of color
through the Winter months. 2 y2 feet.

r'ntrknonzf-or (Quinceberry). This makes a
VI most attractive5 dense, dark
green hedge. The thick, glossy leaves turn red
in the Fall. Will stand partial shade and is abso-
lutely hardy.

Japanese Barberry Hedge.

Rurkthnm ^ we^ known ornamental hedge
UUeiXUlU I II plant that stands close pruning

without injury. Where trimmed the leaves soon
cover the cut, making the hedge appear like a
smooth and glossy wall of living green. It does
not cause annoyance by sprouting from the roots
like the common lilac and many other plants used
for hedges. It bids defiance to the severest frosts
of Winter and the most parching heat of Sum-
mer. The leaves are of a rich, healthy green color,
remaining in perfect condition throughout the Sum-
mer. Though it is a strong grower it can be kept
down to any size desired by frequent trimming.
In order to get a pretty hedge the plants must be-
trimmed severely the first few years so as to get
numerous strong branches near the ground. The
principal thing in growing a hedge is to get it thick
at the very bottom. The plants are generally set
eight to nine inches apart in a single row. The
plants should be cut back at least half their length
immediately after planting. Some hedge plants are
very particular as to the time for trimming, but
not so with the Buckthorn. It will stand trimming
at any time.

Spirea Van Houttei XVsiZ Jdge

plant is Spiraea Van Houttei. The long, graceful,
drooping sprays are attractive even after the flow-
ers are gone, and it grows just about the right
height to give privacy without “shutting in” the
place; it is especially good for the back or side
lines of the place, under most conditions, although
a little too tall for the front.

New Hardy Roses

Everybody loves Roses. For years people have
tried to raise them here in the North, but with
indifferent results. This was due to the fact that
most of the older varieties needed protection in
the Winter and spraying in the Summer, and this
care was seldom given. However, an entirely
new strain of Roses has been developed which
are hardy enough to stand the Winters without
covering and whose foliage is healthy and vigorous
and is seldom attacked by insects or diseases. This
new type of Rose, the HYBRID RUGOSA, makes
it possible for everyone to enjoy in their own yard
the queen of all flowers.

We strongly advise our patrons to secure not
only one, but the complete collection, as each has
peculiar merits which will delight all lovers of the
Rose, and which we of the North are privileged to
enjoy to the full. Will make a valuable hedge.

Hybrid Rugosa

Amelie Gravereaux. The newest and choicest of
Rugosa Hybrids. The flowers are a rich red
American Beauty color, large, single stem blos-
soms, of rich fragrance. It is a liberal bloomer
— often carrying a dozen blooms within eight
weeks after planting. A hardy and thrifty bush
of beautiful foliage — a real attraction as a shrub.
We consider this new creation the “Rose Par
Excellence” for the Northwest, placing it in im-
portance over all other Roses.

Hansa. Deep violet-red. Very large, perfectly dou-
ble, fragrant. In this fine variety, unlike most
of its class, the buds of each cluster open at
about the same time, giving the effect at a dis-
tance of a single Rose of immense size. The
foliage is particularly dark, rich green and the
bush absolutely hardy. A beauty in every way.
It is perhaps the best all around Rose for gen-
eral planting.

Grootendorst. Clear bright red. This novelty is
a most valuable acquisition, having the clean,
leathery foliage of the Rugosa Roses and the
low-growing habit and continuous blooming of
the Baby Rambler. Like all Roses of the Baby
Rambler type, the flowers are borne in clus-
ters. They are of good size for this class of
Rose, are nearly double and the edges of the
flowers are beautifully fringed. The color is a
fine clear red and holds exceptionally well. The
bloom is produced continuously from early Sum-
mer until cut off by cold weather in the Fall.
The foliage is of the true Rugosa type and is

always healthy, attractive and free from mildew.
In habii the plant is of vigorous but compact,
dwarfish growth. It is very effective, not only
for planting singly as specimens, but is espe-
cially valuable for landscape work in low mass-
ing and for use as a low-growing hedge or
border.

Sir Thomas Lipton. Pure white. Fragrant, per-
fectly aouble. The type of bush is similar to the
Amelie Gravereaux and makes an excellent white
to plant with that beautiful red.

Conrad F. Meyer. Clear silvery pink. Of largest
size, almost as large as Paul Neyron, very dou-
ble, choicest fragrance, continuous bloom, pro-
duces singly instead of in clusters as most of
this class of Roses grow. Bush thrifty and
vigorous.

Madame, Villemont. Rose-pink, passing to a light
pink. Large, globular, double blooms. One of
the most choice.

Hugonis. A beautiful Rose from China. Flowers
are single, pale, clear yellow, delicately fra-
grant, borne so abundantly on the long, arching
canes as to form a continuous band of color. A
vigorous growing shrub that blooms continuously
and early. One of the best shrubs for general
garden use.

yellow flower. Desirable for a hedge or for
mixing in shrubbery; hardy and thrifty.

Climbing Roses

Dorothy Perkins. Clear cherry-pink. Slightly fra-
grant flowers borne in great profusion, and last-
ing for a long time, they are double and the
petals crinkled, which gives them a delightful
fluffy appearance. Foliage is glossy bright green,
and persists until cold weather.

Excelsa. “A Red Dorothy Perkins.” An intense
crimson, with the edges of the petals a little
lighter, produced in immense clusters. Very
similar to Crimson Rambler, but much superior
to it in color of flower, and in the glossy, disease-
resistant foliage.

Hardy Climbing Vines

T-HHoyqi Doot Handsome, glossy foliage and
Liatc/JU/tct large clusters of beautiful or-
ange-crimson fruit retained all Winter, its graceful
sprays of berries making Winter house decorations.
It is perfectly hardy.

Clematis Paniculata

Of rapid growth,
quickly covering
trellises and arbors with handsome, clean, glossy
foliage. The flowers are of medium size, fragrant,
pure white, borne in immense sheets in September,
when few other vines are in bloom; hardy.

Clematis Virginiana ®J’sa “>;

hardy, climbing vine. It is a native of the North-
west and succeeds everywhere. Grows to a height
of 20 feet and sometimes more. In August pro-
duces an immense profusion of white, feathery
flowers.

Honeysuckle, Scarlet Trumpet

(Lonicera). The old garden favorite, blooms all
Summer, producing the most brilliant orange-
scarlet flowers. Foliage rich, glossy green.

J i zl vm ryyi /'/j (Sometimes called V^ood-
jvy> Simvr ICUU bine and Virginia Creeper).
A native of the Dakotas. Absolutely hardy and
vigorous. A more rapid grower than Engelmann’s
Ivy but it requires a trellis upon which to climb.

Ivy, Engelmann’s

ing vine for this climate, to cover brick or stone
walls or any rough surface, as it clings without a
trellis. It is a very rapid grower, often growing
15 to 20 feet in a single season. In appearance it
resembles the Common Virginia Creeper, but the
leaves are smaller and the whole vine presents a
neater appearance.

Engelmann’s Ivy. Clematis Paniculata.

Hardy Perennial Plants

Of all the plants that are cultivated for purely ornamental purposes there are none which have made
such rapid strides in public favor as the OLD FASHIONED HARDY GARDEN FLOWERS, the inhab-
itants of the perennial garden. Their popularity is not at all surprising when we consider the many
varied and pleasing changes which take place throughout the entire growing season in a well arranged
hardy border. Every week — yes, every day — brings forth something fresh and new to interest and de-
light even the most critical. Beginning in April the early tulips open their flowers often before the
snow has entirely disappeared. These are soon followed by the Early Siberian Iris. Early June brings
a wealth of the most magnificent bloom in all colors from the much improved varieties of Peonies.
Throughout the Summer in constant succession come a wealth of flowers furnished by the Larkspur, Late
Iris, Late Peonies, Sweet William, Achillea, the Pearl, Achillea roseum, and in the late Summer, Dah-
lias, Golden Glow. Gladioli, and Columbine. When the Summer flowers are gone the growing season
is greatly lengthened by the late Fall blooms of such as the Shasta and Giant Daisies, Gaillardia and

the early frosts do not touch the heavy bloom of the choice varieties of Phlox. While there are many

more perennials, we list here only those that have proved entirely satisfactory in our section.

Plant in Borders. A most satisfactory arrangement is to plant perennials in a border which can
follow a wall, fence, hedge or trellis. Plants should be placed in small groups, three or more of each

variety together, and so positioned as to give pleasing combinations of bloom. In such a border the

taller growing sorts could be used as a background. Next, place the medium heights and then the
lower varieties at the edge. Desirable locations are also found in the foreground of shrubbery groups
or borders. Here their Summer bloom will add color to the foliage of the shrubs which in turn fur-
nishes a needed background for the perennial flowers.

Achillea the Pearl A handsome Plant

sit. c# if if elf, uie reuri attaining a height
of two feet, producing pure white flowers in the
greatest profusion tne entire Summer. One of the
best varieties for cut flowers.

Am/ilenia (Columbine). The Columbines
uiU£,r/iu are justly called one of the most
graceful and hardy plants. They produce their
graceful spurred flowers on stems rising two feet
or more above the beautiful divided foliage. The
colors are of the most delicate hues. They are
not at all particular about soil or drainage, but
seem to thrive in any garden soil. Flowers are in
bloom from May to July. We offer the follow-
ing forms and colors:

Caerulea. Blue shades.

Chrysantha. Yellow.

Long Spurred Hybrids. Mixed. This mixture is
one of the most desirable and satisfactory, the
blooms exhibiting a wide range of colors.

Aster, New England °'ndd L?e, inf0‘

4 feet tall, making a wonderful Fall showing of
deep violet-blue flowers remaining in bloom until
the ground freezes. Their extreme profusion of
bloom during the Autumn months makes them in-
valuable for the border and for cut flowers. They
are hardy and are very easy to grow.

Bleeding Heart o^ZVZlt

Bleeding Heart that our grandmother always grew
in her hardy garden. For many years they were
imported from Holland, but when the Govern-
ment stopped the shipments by embargo, they be-
came very scarce. They are now becoming more
common and we expect to have our usual supply
each year. The long racemes of heart-shaped,
pink flowers are always attractive. Comes up
early in the Spring and flowers immediately.

No Garden Complete without Bleeding Heart.

Coreopsis

Delphinium — Larkspur.

Gaillardia — Blanket Flower.

F CiYOnn^i C This is one of the most satis-
KsUi factory hardy plants for steady

bloom in great profusion. The flowers are of a
rich golden yellow, of good size, and the main
crop comes in June. If cut every day they will
continue to bloom the entire Summer in a very
satisfactory manner. It is a strong grower, the
clumps increasing in size each season.

Dpltlhinilim (Larkspur). The tall Eng-
LJLifjuuiium lish Larkspur are among the

most beautiful hardy plants in cultivation. They
come in several shades, and increase in size and
beauty each succeeding year. The spikes are im-
mense in size and of the most delicate shades of
blue. They begin to bloom in June, and if the
flowers are cut off near the ground as soon as they
have faded, a second and third crop will be pro-
duced before the end of the season. It is a good
plan to stake the stalks when they attain a height
of three feet, as a heavy wind will frequently
mutilate them.

Gold Medal Hybrids. A choice strain containing
many forms and many shades.

Belladonna. Light sky-blue. Splendid cut flower
variety. Used extensively by florists everywhere.
Bellamosa. A dark blue of the type of Belladonna.

Dirtnmrms (Gas plant)- A very showy
UILIUUUIUZ border perennial forming a

bush about 30 inches high, having fragrant foli-
age and spikes of curious flowers during June and
July, giving off on warm, sultry evenings a fra-
grant, volatile oil, which ignites when a match is
applied to the stem directly under the heads of
the flowers. They like a heavy soil and sunny po-
sition. Do not transplant them frequently, as they
do best to stay in one place for a long term of
years. They come in rose-pink and white; two
shades only.

Djnjf/iljc (Foxglove). The old-fashioned Fox-
uiyuuiid glove that was always found in
grandmother’s hardy garden is just as popular as
it was a hundred years ago. People love these
old-fashioned flowers and they are easy to grow.
The strong stalks attain a height of 3 to 4 feet,
rising from rich masses of leaves, always giving
an appearance of strength to the border, and, dur-
ing their period of flowering, frequently dominate
the whole garden. They flower in midsummer in
great profusion, the flowers at the bottom of the
spike opening first, and so on to the top. The
leading shades are white, rose and purple. We
handle them in mixed shades only.

Pinii T Hi I (Hemerocallis). Here is another
Lyuc/ iy old-fashioned favorite that is still
to be found around every old home that dates back
into the last century. These hardy lilies are still
favorites everywhere. They thrive in any location
in good soil and are especially well adapted to
moist, shady situations.

Hemerocallis flava (Lemon Day Lily). A pro-
fusion of large yellow blooms on strong, 3-foot
stems during June. Splendid for clumps of
shrubbery, the perennial border, or the rock
garden.

Hemerocallis Thunbergi. The latest to flower;
rich, buttercup-yellow, funnel-shaped flowers
throughout July. Height 2*4 feet.

Double Orange Lily (var. Kwanso). Flowers or-
ange-yellow, with a copper shade, borne during
July and August. Height 2}4 feet.

Fun kin (Blue Plantain Lily). These plants
1 U/lrXlU have dark green, glossy foliage, at-
tractive even when the plants are not in flower.
They do as well in shade as in the sun and there
is wide use for them in shady positions. Droop-
ing flowers in July and August. Excellent for
a border plant.

Cnillnrrlin (Blanket Flower). One of the
KJU.IIIUI tllLl showiest of hardy plants, attain-
ing a height of two feet and succeeding in any
soil in a sunny position. It begins to flower in
June and continues the entire season. Will do best
if cut frequently. The flowers are of gorgeous
coloring, the center dark red-brown, while the
petals are marked with rings of brilliant crimson,
orange and vermilion, and often a combination of
all in one flower. Should be planted in lots of
six to twelve to get a good variety of shades of
coloring.

FunQrknhiln (Baby’s Breath). Did you ever
ySVyllllU notice the large displays of

bloom of this hardy plant in the florists’ windows
in late Fall? They use it extensively for orna-
mentation, as the flowers are minute and attract-
ive when dry, and are borne in such great pro-
fusion. The Gypsophila will thrive in any soil,
and has a large, massive root which causes the
plant in Summer to throw out hundreds of branches
with very scant foliage, which in the Summer and
Fall is covered with the most delicate, minute
white flowers, having the appearance of a misty
bloom. There is really no other plant to take its
place as it stands in a class by itself, and at least
one plant should be in every garden.

Assorted Iris make a Charming Border.

Hollyhocks. German Iris. Lily-of-th e-Valley.

tJfllhlhnf'lcQ These stately, majestic plants
uuiiyuu^no are as old as the C0Untry, but

the choice double varieties are not so well known.

They grow 6 to 8 feet high and are a necessary
part to every old-fashioned garden. They are
much used in shrubbery beds, where they come
up every year and add to the beauty of the sur-
roundings. There is no other plant that takes the
place of the Hollyhocks. The flowers begin to
open from the bottom of the stalk and are in
bloom for several weeks.

Trie flormnn Has been cultivated and im-
iris, kjviuiuu proved t0 such an extealt

that from the old “Blue Flag” has been evolved a
most bewildering assortment of shapes and colors
that it is no wonder it has been called the Rainbow
Flower. In its different classes and varieties the
Iris has become one of the most popular of all
perennial plants and is one of the standard kinds
needed to complete the hardy flower garden. Iris
are also invaluable as cut flowers. If they are
picked as the buds are about to open, and allowed
to expand indoors, the colors will be much richer
and they will last a long time, for, as fast as one
flower fades the next will take its place until all
have opened. Iris can be grown in any kind of soil,
although they prefer a moist situation.

Florentina alba. Very early. White, faintly flushed
with lavender.

Honorabile. Vigorous growing and free flowering.

Standards yellow; falls rich mahogany-brown.
Madame Chereau. Pure white with clear, frilled
lavender edge.

Mrs. H. Darwin. Large; white tinged with pink;
very fragrant.

Pumila. Very dwarf, 4 inches; the best hardy
flower for the border of a perennial planting;
deep purple; very early.

Sherwin-Wright. A pure golden yellow.

Iris, Siberian

Germanica.

Lantern Plant

Very hardy; blooms pro-
fusely; finer foliage than the
Two colors, blue and white.

(Physalis). A perennial
with something of the
habits of the Lily-of-the-Valley, in that it spreads
from pips in the roots, and will in time fill up a
small corner of the yard. The shoots come up in
early Spring, making a plant 2 feet high, branched
like an Aster. The flowers are not conspicuous
but the “red lanterns” which come in the Fall are
certainly of immense interest and very attractive.
The plants can be cut near the ground in the Fall
and the lanterns will dry in their natural shape
and stay on for an indefinite period.

J ihi- of- Hip- V alien After the long’ cold

L,uy UI LflP vuuvy Winter of the North

it is pleasant to see the Lily shoots coming through
the ground, one of the earliest signs of Spring.
In fact, they are frequently seen out of the ground
in February as the Winter cold and frost do not
seem to harm them in the least. The leaves quickly
appear and before we hardly realize that Summer
is here, the little racemes of bell-shaped flowers,
which are so intensely fragrant can be gathered in
quantity. A small cluster in the library will per-
fume the entire home with a fragrance that is
both rare and elegant in nature.

Pyrethrum Hybridum ^ n Vehe

daisy-like flowers are both single and double,
in shades of white, pink and red to deep crimson.
Begins to bloom in June and remains in blossom
a long time.

Pyrethrum Uliginosum ^I'a

hardy, tall growing plant, bearing clusters of
large, pure white flowers with yellow centers;
very showy and valuable for cut flowers. Blos-
soms late in the Summer and continues until cut
off by frost.

1 Without doubt, Peonies are at the
i eU/iteo present time the most popular of all
hardy plants, and justly so, for probably there
is no other class of plants that combine so many
desirable qualities with so few objectionable ones.
They are easy to grow, hardy everywhere without
protection, and free from diseases and insect pests.
Once established they are permanent, large clumps
being frequently seen in old, neglected gardens
that have flourished and bloomed for a score of
years with no attention whatever. Many new
Peonies have been developed within the past few
years which far surpass the older kinds in size
and beauty. From the many hundreds of varieties
we have selected the following as among the best.
Duchesse de Nemours. White; early; fragrant.
Felix Crousse. Ruby-red; midseason.

Festiva Maxima. Large, very double, pure white;

center petals fringed with red; long stems.
Formosa. Very large, free-blooming pink; early.
Karl Rosenfield. Dark velvety crimson, clear and
brilliant, without a trace of purple. A superb
and marvelous flower; immense in size, globular,
and of solid habit. Blooms in clusters.

Prince of Darkness. Very rich dark red.

Rubra Officinalis. Red; earliest of all Peonies.

(Balloon Flower). These plants
are closely allied to the Cam-
panulas and form neat-branched bushes of up-
right habit. They grow two feet high, producing
their blue or white flowers from July to October.

Platycodon

Hardy Phlox.

Phlox This delightful flower gives us strik-
ing, brilliant color effects in July and
August. The Phloxes may be had in crimson,
white, pink and combinations of colors. They fill
in that period between the early Summer flowers
and the Fall blooming sorts, hence are rather
necessary to furnish continuous color to the per-
ennial landscape border. They show up very
effectively when several plants of one variety are
massed to give a single color in one group, or they
may be used as single plants. Phloxes have been
wonderfully improved during recent years; the
flowers are larger and colors more beautiful. This
new Phloxes will surely please you. We recom-
mend the following as being the best:

Beranger. Rose-pink; large.

Eclaireur. Dark purple-red with light center.
Miss Lingard. White with light pink eye. Blooms
in June and again in September.

Richard Wallace, v/hite with carmine eye.

R. P. Struthers. Cherry-red suffused with salmon.
Von Lassburg. Pure white; individual flowers very
large.

f? i irlhorlfin (Golden Glow). One of the most
iYUUueL.r\lu p0pUiar hardy plants, a strong

grower, attaining 5 to 6 feet and produces in
August masses of golden yellow flowers, in form
like a cactus dahlia.

Sweet William

One of the best and most
satisfactory old-fashioned
plants, producing in early Summer a splendid
effect of rich and varied flowers. We furnish
them in assorted colors only, as they are practically
always grown in that way. The different colors
and combinations in the individual flowers are
almost endless.

YllCCCL (Adam’s Needle). The list of hardy
i utiu plants that are evergreen is not large,
and this variety, with a distinctly tropical aspect
is a welcome addition. Its broad, swordlike, ever-
green leaves, which become larger with age, re-
mind one of the so-called Century Plant of the
tropics, of which, indeed, it is a relative. During
the Summer it puts up a flower stalk 3 to 4 feet
high, which terminates with branching spikes of
bell-shaped flowers. A few evergreen plants in
the garden relieve the dead aspect of Winter and
present a good appearance.

Bulbs for Fall Planting

(Cannot be Supplied for Spring).

When the snow has gone and the eye hungers
for the first sign of Spring, nothing supplies so
much satisfaction as a bed of bright colored, early-
flowering Tulips. Tulips are easy to grow. The
important thing is to cover with five inches of
earth, and to provide good soil below in which
the roots may develop. Varieties and prices differ
greatly. We have selected a list of choice va-
rieties which we offer below to our customers.
We supply only the strong, No. 1 bulbs.

EARLY COTTAGE TULIPS— May-Flowering.

Prince of Austria. Orange-scarlet; very fragrant.
Yellow Prince. Large yellow, sweet scented; very
popular variety.

Wm. Copeland. One of the best early Darwins;

beautiful, delicate lavender shade.

Cottage Maid. Delicate rose, center of petals
feathered white.

Keizerskroon. Red and gold, suggesting red cap
and gold crown. One of the showiest varieties.

DARWIN TULIPS.

Pride of Haarlem. Large flower of charming
cerise color.

Clara Butt. Beautiful soft salmon-rose; large
flower of remarkable beauty.

Dream. Large, cup-shaped flower of heliotrope
with silvery lilac margin; blue base.

Madame Krelage. Extra large flower of deep pink
with blue center. One of the most beautiful of
all Tulips.

Negro. Brownish black.

Tulips and Lily-of-the-Valley in Border.

Bulbs for Spring Planting Only

Dahlias

The wonderful improvement in the Dahlia of
late years has brought it to greater prominence
than it enjoyed even in our grandmothers’ days.
The new types are all distinct, each having a beauty
peculiarly its own. They are particularly desir-
able for planting against fences and buildings;

they do not require a great deal of care, and both
flowers and plants make an exceedingly handsome
display.

No flowers are so easily grown. Good soil,
water and sun is all they require. Plant early in
May; cover the tubers about three inches deep.

Decorative Dahlias. Pompon Dahlia. Cactus Dahlia.

Nothing so Satisfies the Hunger for Early Spring Flowers as a Border of Tulips.

DAHLIAS— Continued.

When the plant is about eight inches high, cut it
off above the second joint. This will cause it to
throw out side branches, which will bloom freely.

After the tops have been killed by frost, cut them
off six inches above the ground; take up the roots;
dry out in the sun for a few days, and place them
in a cool, dark cellar until Spring.

We offer to our patrons some of the choicest in
each color and representing the different popular
types. We supply only the large No. 1 bulbs of
the following choice varieties:

Queen Mary (Decorative Type). Pink Dahlias are
always in demand. This is a clear pink, a pro-
fuse bloomer of five-inch flowers on perfect
stems. One of the finest for a cut flower.
Embassador (Decorative Type). Enormous blos-
soms of deepest shade of red or maroon, and
when grown where slightly shaded are nearly
black. This is a grand Dahlia on heavy, stiff
stems. Free flowering. Height five feet.

Joan (Pompon Type). Clear yellow, suffused with
pinkish reu; new; very fine.

Countess of Lonsdale (Cactus Type). We believe
one of the best bloomers of the Cactus type.
Deep salmon-red, flowers very full and borne
on stiff stems. Flowers are often six inches
across.

Gladioli

The interest in Gladioli throughout the country
is almost equal to that taken in the Peonies. They
are easy to grow, like an onion, which the bulb
somewhat resembles, and are prompt to send up
the most gorgeous flower stalks. There is money
in growing Gladioli as well as Dahlias for the
flowers, and many small home owners put in a few
hundred bulbs and sell many times their cost in
flowers the first season, whereas they have had the
pleasure of growing and admiring them during the
Summer. We sell all of these Spring bulbs by the
hundred and thousand where desired. The lead-
ing colors are cream, pink, red, scarlet, white and
yellow.

President Taft. Beautiful soft flesh-pink. A mag-
nificent cut flower. Very large spike. One of
the most beautiful of the very delicate pinks.
Baron Hulot. A very rich, deep indigo-blue. The
best real blue Gladiolus. Very strong grower.
Peace. A very strong grower often reaching a
height of five feet, with a correspondingly long
flower spike; pure white with faint lilac markings
on lower petals. One of the largest and most
beautiful in vase display.

Improved Gladiolus.

Schwaben. Extremely showy, both as a cut flower
and in the border. The color is pure canary-
yellow shaded sulphur, the golden yellow throat
slightly blotched with carmine, but so deep as
not to interfere with all-yellow general effect.

War. Deep blood-red, shaded crimson-black. One
of the most desirable of all the large deep reds.

Primulinus Hybrids. Fine; varying shades of yel-
low, orange and saffron. Graceful slender stems
and airily poised hooded flowers.
