Lf the runners are kept cut during summer it will give additional vigor to the late crop. Progressive.

Gellceted for the Arnold Arboretum of Harvard University by the indefatigable plant collector, Mr. E. H. Wilson, in remote and hitherto unexplored regions. Gold Medal Awarded by the Massachusetts Horticultural Society. A number of these plants were offered by us last year for the first time. We now offer for the first time another group of these plant treasures. They are attracting universal interest, many orders coming from Europe, Japan and other parts of the globe. They are unquestionably the finest plant novelties extant. AMPELOPSIS Henryana. (Vitis Hen- ryana.) In habit, this new climber resembles our native woodbine. The ground color of the leaves is dark velvety green, with the mid-rib and principal veins silvery white. The foliage has a very striking appearance in autumn when the ground color changes to vivid red, the mid-rib and vein remaining white. In Massachusetts, this vine requires protec- tion during winter, but would probably prove quite hardy south of New York, or even farther north where the influence of the ocean moderates the temperature. Award of Merit by the Royal Horticultural Society of London. Each 30 cts.; doz., $3.00. AMPELOPSIS Thomsonii. (Vitis Thom- sonii.) This charming new climber is one of the most beautiful of the Woodbine family. It requires protection during winter. The leaves are greenish purple above, and bright claret color beneath; changing in the Autumn to rich red. Award of Merit by the Royal Horticul- tural Society of London. Each, 30 cts.; doz., $3.00. AMPELOPSIS aconitifolius dissecta. A perfectly hardy vine, growing 8 to 10 ft. tall, with elegantly dissected foliage and bright blue fruit; splendid for trellises. Each, 75 cts.; doz., $7.50. BERBERIS brevipaniculata. A bush 4 to 6 ft. tall with wedge shaped small leaves clustered together and assuming fine tints in autumn. The small yellow flowers are freely produced on erect panicles 3 to 5 in. long. ‘These are followed by masses of salmon-red fruits in early Autumn. The foliage is retained very late. Its several fine qualities make this new Barberry one of the handsomest and most distinct of its class. Each, 50 cts.; doz., $5.00 Deutzia discolor. Buddleia variabilis magnifica. BUDDLEIA asiatiea. ‘‘White flowered Win- ter Lilac.’ An elegant pot plant suit- able for general decorative purposes and cut flowers. Cultural requirements same as those of Chrysanthemum. Blossoms December to March; every shoot termi- nating in a slender tail of pure white, de- liciously fragrant flowers. A notable ac- quisition. Each, 25 cts.; doz., $2.50. ne BUDDLEIA officinalis. ‘Winter Lilac.’ An excellent companion to B. asiatica with rose-pink fragrant flowers, each with orange eye and produced in terminal, branched tails. Flowering season same as that of B. asiatica. Award of Merit, R.H.S8., London. Each, 25 ets. ; doz., $2.50. BUDDLEIA variabilis Veitehiana. ‘‘Sum- mer Lilac.’’ Late summer and early fall blooming shrub suitable for beds or masses in the shrubbery. The lilac-colored flow- ers are borne in cylindrical tails 20 to 30 in. long at the ends of the shoots. Awarded F. C. C. by the R. H. S., London. Each, 50 cts.; doz., $5.00. BUDDLEIA variabilis magnifiea. The in- dividual flowers are larger than those of Veitchiana, intense violent-purple in color with reflexed margins and orange eye. One of the finest acquisitions of recent years. A fairly rich soil, sunny position and abundance of water are the essentials for the successful culture of ‘‘Swmmer Lilac.” Each, 50 cts.; doz., $5.00. BUDDLEIA variabilis superba. Perhaps the finest of all the summer Lilacs. It has erect arching shoots 5 to 6 ft. tall, and im- mense tails of rich lilac-colored flowers. Each, 75 cts.; doz., $7.50. BUDDLEIA variabilis Wilsonii. The lat- est of all the Summer Lilacs to flower. It blooms in September and bears immense tails, sometimes attaining 30 inches in length, of bright rosy-lilac flowers with orange eye. Each, 50 ets.; doz., $5.00. CLEMATIS montana rubens. This beau- tiful hardy, new Clematis begins to bloom early in June when a profusion of soft rosy- red blooms resembling those of the Japan- ese Anemone are produced. As the flowers are borne on the young wood, they appear more or less freely until frost. A First Class Certificate was awarded to this plant by the Royal Horticultural Society of London. Each, 50 ets.; doz., $5.00. CLEMATIS tangutiea. A fine Chinese variety of free and rapid growth; bright green dense foliage. A good climber and one of the best ground-covering and trellis plants. “Flowers bright yellow. June-July. Each, 30 cts.; doz., $3.00. SUMMER CATALOGUE, 1916.
