THE FIRST THINGS TO KNOW

tNhal is there about the trees and plants that come from Glenwood Nursery that gives
them especial importance in your estimation f

1. They are dependable. Every possible care is taken to have the stock that leaves this Nursery true to name and

description.

2. They are healthy. We take extraordinary precautions against insect and fungus attacks, and it is our earnest endeavor

to have all our trees and plants entirely free from disease.

3. They are hardy. We are located in the cold North; the stock that we propagate and grow becomes acclimated to the

conditions as here existing, and if we can successfully winter over stock under temperatures of 15 to 20 degrees below
zero, it will withstand the same temperatures for you.

4. They are vigorous. Ample spreading space has been given each tree or plant in the Nursery; where pruning has been

necessary, we have pruned; where fertilizing has been indicated by unsatisfactory growth, we have fertilized; where
spraying has been an ounce of prevention, we have sprayed — the whole idea being to make our stock vigorous and of
sturdy, persistent growth.

5. They are productive. Whether planted for nuts, fruit, flowers, or for ornamental foliage, the trees and plants we

send out are prepared by the treatment they have received at our hands to do the best that Nature has deemed
possible. And, frequently, by reason of the fulness and excellence of their product, they surpass what we considered
to be the limit of possibility for them.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

The Order Blank which accompanies this Catalogue is for the con-
venience of customers, and we shall appreciate their using it, as so doing
will greatly facilitate the filling of orders.

Always Give Full Address — name, postoffice, county, and state.
And it is very important that this information be plainly written.

Shipping Instructions. Give your nearest express office and railway
station, or stage route, and the name of the transportation company.
State how you wish us to ship — by freight or express; also designate the
route; otherwise we use our own discretion in forwarding.

Freight and Express Rates. Freight and express rates on trees,
plants, vines, etc., have been so reduced that they are now a minor con-
sideration in the purchase of trees. Nursery stock travels at second-
class rates, and, after averaging up the year’s business, one of
the leading catalogue nurserymen found that the average transporta-
tion charges amounted to 5 cents for every dollar’s worth of nursery
stock purchased. This is computed from orders received from every
state in the Union.

Duty on Trees into Canada. The duty on trees into Canadajs 3
cents per tree, and on bush fruits, such as currants, gooseberries, etc.,
and ornamental shrubs, 20 per cent of their value. We accompany all
shipments with an invoice, and our Canadian customers will be notified
by their customs officers on arrival of shipment as to the necessary duty
to pay, which should be paid direct to the customs office.

Shipping Routes. Our Nursery is unusually fortunate in having
available a variety of mediums for carrying stock. There are four
express companies at Rochester: Adams, American, Wells Fargo, and
National; and we are also in direct contact with the Southern. Five
railways are here: Pennsylvania; New York Central lines; Erie;
Buffalo, Rochester & Pittsburgh, and Lehigh. This means that we
have direct access to every part of the country and are in position to
supply your needs promptly.

Prices in this Catalogue are f. o. b. Rochester, N. Y. There are no
charges for packing or boxing, and all goods are delivered at freight or
express depots free of charge. On foreign shipments which require
special preparation, a charge covering the actual cost only will be made.

No Orders for Less Than $1 Accepted. Because it costs just as much
to pack and prepare small orders as it does large ones, and as the prices
we ask are so close to the actual cost of production, we cannot afford
to fill orders amounting to less than $1. Ordering all your needed stock
at one time saves on the transportation charges, because the heavier
the box or bale, the less it costs per pound for freight or express shipment.

Terms Cash on or before delivery to transportation companies. Two
per cent discount allowed on all orders accompanied by cash. Accounts.
When so requested, we are willing to open accounts with persons or
firms of approved credit, or with those who can offer satisfactory refer-
ences. Express C. O. D. Orders will be filled, provided one-half of the
amount is sent with the order.

Our Responsibility. We refer you to any bank or bankers in Roches-
ter, N. Y. Also Dun’s and Bradstreet’s Commercial Agencies.

Guaranty. It is obviously to our advantage to have all stock that
leaves our Nursery true to name and to so grow as to give entire satis-
faction to purchaser. Our every effort is put forth to have these con-
ditions a resultant element of every sale. But conditions of soil, climate, '
care, are such sometimes that it is difficult for any tree or plant to grow;
so, because there are so many things that may influence the life of the
tree or plant after it leaves our Nursery, we do not give any warranty
as to description, quality, or productiveness. If, by proper proof, it is
shown that stock is not true to name, due to error on our part, we are
ready to replace such plants immediately; and it is mutually agreed
between the purchaser and ourselves that we shall not, at any time, be
held responsible for an amount greater than the original purchase
price of the stock.

Errors. If mistakes are made in filling orders, we will gladly rectify
same if notified within ten days after receipt of stock.

Substitution. Please state whether substitutions will be permitted.
On large orders for commercial planting, we do not substitute without
first obtaining the consent of the customer, but on orders of assorted
varieties for a home orchard we feel at liberty, when certain varieties
are sold out, to use some others that are so similar as to be almost iden-
tical, unless specifically instructed not to make substitutions.

Care of Stock When Received. Soak the roots of the trees and plants
with water, and either place them in a cellar and keep damp or bury
them in a trench until the holes are ready for their transplanting. If
at all dry and shriveled, the best plan is to bury them for a few days,
root and branch, in damp earth; if frozen when received, bury in earth
until the frost is removed.

Estimated Weights. The general run of deciduous fruits trees, either
in bales or cases, averages about as follows: 6 to 8 feet, two pounds each;
4 to 6 feet, one and one-half pounds each; 3 to 4 feet, one pound each;
2 to 3 feet, one-half pound each. Grape-vines, one-third pound each.
Deciduous ornamental trees from 6 to 8 feet and up to 12 to 15 feet,
three to six pounds each.

Planting Directions. In a catalogue of this character it is prac-
tically impossible to give planting instructions that will cover all of
the nursery stock listed; the same applies to directions for pruning and
for spraying. Bulletins covering many special planting problems may
be obtained from your state experiment station, and the addition to the
home library of such books as Bailey’s “Manual of Gardening” and
similar standard works will be money well spent.

Botanical Names. The scientific names of trees and plants in this Cata-
logue have been made to conform, in the main, to the 1917 Official Code
of Standardized Plant Names, adopted and published by the Ameri-
can Joint Committee on Horticultural Nomenclature and as first pub-
lished in Volume VI of Bailey’s “Standard Cyclopedia of Horticulture.”

This orchard of thriving English Walnut trees furnishes the nuts from which our seedling Thomson trees are grown. Note the sturdiness of the parent trees

Nuts for Food and Profit

The trend of the times is toward finding substitutes for staple articles of food so that the supplies may be conserved and little-
known foods introduced and utilized. Attention is being directed to the food value of nuts, and magazines and reports from Govern-
ment and private investigators are giving us comparative data as to the importance of nut production to the world’s food-supply.

We think of meat, wheat, and potatoes as indispensable items on our menu, but Farm Bulletin No. 122 of the United States Depart-
ment of Agriculture gives us some startling figures as to the food value of the Walnut, showing the consideration due this substitute for

the above staples.

The Walnut, as will be observed by reference to the above table, has only one thirty-sixth as much water in its makeup as has the potato!
it contains more of the proteins than do either potatoes or wheat flour, meat surpassing it in this respect by only a narrow margin. The
Walnut overwhelmingly leads the list in fat-content, having over three times as much as its nearest rival — meat. In carbohydrates, it
ranks third but has a sufficient amount to make the Walnut a more valuable article of food than either of the three with which it is compared.

That these facts are gradually becoming known is evidenced by the constantly growing demand for edible nuts, a demand that, as yet,
we are unable to supply in this country. Each year sees millions of pounds of nuts imported that will be just as readily produced here once
planters realize the financial opportunities that wait upon the foresight of those wise enough to take advantage of an obvious need.

The varieties of nut trees described on this and the following pages can be
successfully grown even in sections of the country where the temperature reaches
an occasional 10 or 20 degrees below zero and can be depended upon to produce
liberal crops of nuts for home consumption and for market.

English Walnut (Juglans regia). The English or Persian Walnut
was brought to America in the early Colonial days, and spasmodic efforts
were made to grow it as successfully here as was being done in southern Europe
and Asia. Varieties sufficiently hardy to withstand the rigorous climatic con-
ditions here existing were not to be had then, however, and interest in the cul-
tivation of the English Walnut in the eastern United States lagged. In later
years, the horticultural development of California naturally included the culti-
vation of this nut and the propagation of new and hardier varieties. In the past
few years, this development of hardy varieties has extended to colder parts of
the United States, and in and about Rochester, New York, are growing English
Walnut trees that are withstanding temperatures as low as 20 degrees below
zero without winterkilling. It is now considered reasonable to expect these
acclimated trees to thrive wherever peaches will.

Thus has been made available for northern planters the Walnut with the
largest, richest, most nutritious nut and the one of greatest commercial value.

This species also yields the valuable Circassian Walnut wood used so extensively
in the manufacture of furniture.

Thrifty three-year-old Fairport English Walnut trees
in our Nursery — a prophecy of majestic appearance,
abundant shade, and large crops of delicious nuts in
the years to come.

English Walnut Grafted on Black Walnut. There are a number of
advantages to be gained by grafting the English Walnut on the Black Walnut. The
tree thus produced is said to be healthier and stronger, growing rapidly, and it will, in all
probability, bear earlier than will a seedling tree. An additional point of value exists in
the knowledge that in the case of a grafted tree one may be reasonably certain as to
what the tree and fruit characteristics will be.

One of the reasons given by authorities on nut culture for the absence of
commercial orchards of English Walnuts in the East has been that the grafting of
this tree was attended with too many difficulties to warrant making the trial on an
extensive scale.

methods, however, have gradually been perfected, and we are offering trees
have been carefully grown, proving their hardiness by withstanding tempera-
of 10 to 20 degrees below zero. :

Lady Edith. This variety is the aristocrat
among eastern English Walnuts. Origi-
nated in Le Roy, N. Y., where winter con-
ditions are very severe, it is acclimated to
freezing temperatures and regularly bears
good crops of the smoothest and hand-
somest nuts we have ever seen. The nut
is of more than medium size, with a re-
markably thin shell, full-meated, and ot
unusually fine flavor. 2—3 ft., grafted on/
Black Walnut, $3 each.

Mayette. Comes into bloom late, thus es-
caping the spring frosts. Nut is of highest
quality, sweet and rich in flavor. A most
desirable variety to plant. Grafted on
Black Walnut, 2-3 ft., $2 each, $20 per
doz.; 3-4 ft., $2.50 each, $25 per doz.

Fairport. Originated in Rochester. A safe
and reliable variety to plant in zero cli-
mates. Bears at two years of age; nut
round, full-meated, of fine quality; thin-
shelled. Tree is a rapid grower, blooming
late. Nuts ripen and fall from the tree in
September. Grafted on Black Walnut,
2-3 ft., $2 each, $20 per doz.; 3-4 ft.,
$2.50 each, $25 per doz.

Thomson. An excellent commercial nut for
severe climates. A real paper-shell, sweet
and delicious, selling at wholesale from
4 to 6 cents a pound more in Rochester
markets than do the California nuts.
Grafted on Black Walnut, 2-3 ft., $2
each, $20 per doz.; 3-4 ft., $2.50 each,
$25 per doz.

The Fairport English Walnut (left) comes into bearing
very early. Safe and reliable. The Thomson (right) is
an excellent commercial variety, commanding high prices.

English Walnut Seedlings. The case of seedling nut trees is frequently a
much mooted one among nurserymen. There seems to be a rather prevalent feeling
that seedling trees cannot be depended upon to produce true to variety. While this has
a certain amount of evidence in support of it, nevertheless we are growing seedling trees
in Rochester which are coming true to type and, in many instances, closely approximat-
ing the varietal characteristics of the parent tree. Moreover, these seedling trees have
proved hardy in temperatures of 15 to 20 degrees below zero.

At the Annual Convention of the Western Walnut Association, Charles Trunk, a
successful commercial grower of English Walnuts, spoke as follows: “I would like to
say to prospective Walnut-growers that, if it should prove in later years that grafted
Walnuts are better than seedling Walnut trees, it is easy to top-graft seedlings; but, if
it should prove otherwise, you can never make the grafted tree into a seedling, which,
in our opinion, is preferable in this locality.”

It is a matter worthy of careful consideration that practically all of the commercial
English Walnut orchards in this country are of seedling trees. In the vicinity of Rochester
there are hundreds that began bearing when four or five years of age and have been
busily at it ever since. In corroboration, we offer the printed statement of the secretary
of the Northern Nut Growers Association, Dr. W. C. Deming, who, in the October, 1915,
issue of the American Nut Journal said, with reference to English Walnut trees grow-
ing about Rochester, N. Y.: “The trees are there. I urged the local committee . . .
to locate every tree they could so that we might visit them all, but it was soon found
that if we were to do this we should have to live at Rochester! ... It was not unusual
to see Walnut trees in the yards of the houses that we passed. Most of the trees were
large, thrifty, and busy.”

We offer acclimated seedling trees of the following types, descriptions of which will
be found above in the list of grafted English Walnut trees. These will prove splendid
trees for avenue or orchard planting.

Fairport. Grown from nuts from parent trees
which came into bearing at four years of
age. An excellent variety. 2-3 ft., $1 each,
$10 per doz., $75 per 100; 3-4 ft., $1.50
each, $15 per doz., $100 per 100; special
specimen trees, 5-6 ft., $3 ea., $30 per doz.

Thomson. Grown from nuts produced by
the Thomson orchard. (See illustration
on page 1.) 2-3 ft., $1 each, $10 per
doz., $75 per 100; 3-4 ft., $1.50 each,
$15 per doz., $100 per 100; special speci-
men trees, 5-6 ft., $3 each, $30 per doz.

Butternuts are good even in the wild state, but the
rich, sweet, delicately flavored kernels of the culti-
vated varieties have a ready sale on all markets.

EXTRA-LARGE ENGLISH WALNUT TREES. Superb for lawns and driveways. For
those of our customers who wish to get the earliest possible results, both in bearing,
age, and appearance, we offer, this coming spring, a few specimen trees that will prove
exceptional values. 7-9 ft., $10 each, $100 per doz.

TREES ARE DOING FINELY. Mr. Charles G. Karling, of West Eaton, N. Y., recently sent us a large order for fruit trees and bushes, and, at the
close of his letter he makes the following gratifying statement: “My English Walnut trees (Fairport) are doing finely. Every one of the twenty trees
has made a fine growth.” Surely they have! We make it a point to have our trees and plants in such condition when they leave our Nursery that they
will stand the shock of transplanting successfully and speedily bring pleasure and profit to their purchasers.

Black Walnut. One of the most valuable nut trees grown, its timber being
highly prized for furniture, interior furnishings, musical instruments, automobiles,
sewing-machines, firearms, and the like. The wood is a rich dark brown, very durable,
hard, strong, and splits easily; takes a fine polish. In addition to its importance as a
timber tree, however, the round, rough nuts furnish rich, meaty kernels which sell at
high prices. A noted authority on nuts recently made the assertion that “The planting
of nut trees along all the public highways would, in less than twenty years, result in a
crop the food value of which would be greater than at present produced by the entire
livestock industry of the country.”

The Black Walnut is a moisture-loving tree and, where these conditions are met,
there is no better tree for roadside planting than the cultivated forms of this monarch
of the American forests. Aside from the regular returns from the sale of the nuts, the
timber value of the trees increases each year, and in this respect alone a full-grown Black
Walnut is worth approximately $100. As the tree grows, it forms a broad-spreading
head which gives it importance as an ornamental and shade tree.

From Canada to the Gulf of Mexico the Black Walnut will thrive and, after the
first few years, requires little attention, making a rapid, sturdy growth and soon pro-
ducing an addition to the owner’s income without operating expense.

Another point in its favor is the Walnut’s habit of sending its roots down deep in
fertile soil, thus offering no competition to ordinary farm crops. It is not unusual to
find grass or similar vegetative growth under the branches and close up to the trunk
of the tree, apparently uninjured by its roots or shade.

Recently the shortage of German dyes has brought to light the interesting suppo-
sition that Walnut hulls are an important ingredient of certain of these dyes. If further
experiments in this country should develop the fact that the hulls are commercially
valuable for dye-making, another incentive to Walnut-planting will have been added.

It has been argued, also, that the planting of Walnut trees is one way of solving the
farm-labor problem. During the winter days, when farm work is at a low ebb, the men
can be put to cracking Walnuts, and, as the rich meaty kernels sell for 60 to 80 cents
a pound, it will be time profitably spent. The fact of their being busy will serve, also,
to keep the men contented and available when the spring work outdoors begins.

For roadside planting or for reforesting large areas, we have extensive plantings of
these valuable trees to offer at the following attractive prices: 3-4 ft., 50 cts. each,
35,-per doz., $40 per 100; 6-8 ft., $1.25 each, $12 per doz., $75 per 100; extra-large
trees, 8-10 ft., $3 each, $30 per doz.

STABLER. Varieties of Black Walnuts rank in value in proportion to the ease with which
the nut is cracked and the percentage of whole half-kernels that can be extracted. Linder
that rating the Stabler Grafted Black Walnut stands among the finest known up to the
present time. The Stabler originated in Howard County, Md., and specimens of the
nuts were sent to the leading nut specialists of the United States, some of whom pro-
nounced it to be the best cracking Black Walnut yet discovered, yielding 50 to 70 per cent
whole halves, and averaging 40 to 45 per cent kernel. The symmetrical shape of grafted
trees of this variety and its beautiful willowy foliage give it a striking appearance in
fields, yards, or along driveways. ...

Plant largely of the Stabler; it will bring returns in pleasure and profit out of all
proportion to the original investment. We offer for spring, 1920, grafted trees of the/
Stabler at these prices: 2-3 ft., $1.50 each, $15 per doz.; 3-4 ft., $2 each, $20 per doz.

Japanese Walnut, Jugia ns Sieboldiana cordiformis. A tree that is of particular
interest to northern planters because of its great hardiness, withstanding temperatures oj
20 to 30 degrees below zero without injury. Comes into bearing at an early age — usually in
three or four years. As the botanical name indicates, the nuts are heart-shaped; the meats
are large, very sweet, easily removed, for the shell is very thin and parts easily at the sutures,
enabling one to get the kernel out whole. Extensively used by confectioners, and as a
dessert nut has few superiors. We recommend it as one of the best of the Japanese varieties.
3-4 ft., 75 cts. each, $7 per doz., $50 per 100; 4-5 ft., $1 each, $9 per doz., $65 per 100.

Butternut ( Juglans cinerea). One of our finest native nut trees, growing occasionally to
a height of 100 feet and spreading in proportion. The wood is much valued because of
the beautiful finish possible in cabinetwork. The large, elongated nuts are rich, sweet, and
of delicate flavor; very nutritious. The size of the nuts can be increased by cultivation. As
the present supply of cultivated Butternuts is insufficient to satisfy the demand of a single
city market, there are large profits in store for planters who will exert themselves to supply
this demand. The trees bear when young, ana after they come into full bearing will bring
large returns on the original investment. Plant largely of Butternuts. For hardiness, dis-
ease-resistance, and general all-round desirable characteristics, the Butternut has few supe-
riors. 5-7 ft., $1 each, $9 per doz., $60 per 100.

Beech, American ( Fagus americana; F.ferruginea). One of our finest native trees, usually
growing to a height of 50 to 60 feet, forming a symmetrical, broad, dense head, with
spreading or drooping branches. The wood is largely used in the manufacture of chairs,
shoe-lasts, plane-stocks, and tool-handles, being hard, strong, tough, and very close-grained.
Bears three-sided, shiny, brown, pyramidal nuts, with sweet, edible kernels. 4-5 ft., $2
each, $18 per doz.

There is a richness to the flavor of the Black Walnut
kernel that is peculiar to this nut. And it is of high
value from a nutritive standpoint.

In Howard County, Maryland, grows this parent tree
of the Stabler Black Walnut — recognized as the best
cracking Walnut yet discovered. Plant some of these
trees as an investment. It will be a safe one.

Look steadily at these plump, meaty Stabler kernels
for a few seconds and then think of the rich, oily,
delicate flavor that characterizes Walnuts. Did your
mouth water?

punching-bag-looking husks contain the well-

Europe has known and appreci-
ated the Filbert for a long time, and
it is rapidly coming into high favor
with American planters owing to
an ever-increasing demand on the
markets for the plump, thin-shelled,
delicious nuts that have an unusually rich flavor.

Soft-shelled Almonds

Is there any
possibility of Duts
becoming a glut
on the market?
We do not think
so, for in ten
years the demand
for English Wal-
nuts was so in-
sistent that, not-
withstanding the
fact that the Cali-
fornia crop more
than doubled, the
price increased
from 7 to 20 cents
a pound! Before
many years, nuts
will become as
staple a food as
beefsteak.

Almond (Prunus communis). An edible nut
in cultivation from time immemorial. The
flowers, coming in early spring, resemble those of
the peach, and a tree in blossom is a handsome
feature of the landscape. The nuts are in great
demand, and the choice varieties find a ready
market and command high prices. According to
the 1916 Yearbook of the Department of Agri-
culture, annual importations of Almonds have
increased in fifteen years from 5,140,232 to
16,596,921 pounds. This is rather startling proof
of their popularity and the inability of our grow- | ,
ers to meet it. The tree prefers a light, well-
drained soil as it makes a strong and rapid root-
growth. Is more tolerant of drought than of
standing water about the roots, which almost
invariably results in the death of the tree.

Hard Shell. Hardy; easily grown; tree very showy
when in bloom; kernels of nuts large, plump, and
sweet. 3-4 ft., 75 cts. each, $7.50 per doz.
Princess. More_ tender than the preceding variety;
needs protection in northern sections; shell soft;
kernels sweet and tender. 3-4 ft., $1 each, $10
per doz.

rilbert (Corylus). This is probably the least appreciated of all nut trees in the
East, notwithstanding its great commercial value in Europe and in our own North-
west. However, an increasing demand for the rich-flavored nuts, together with a grad-
ually acquired understanding of the tree’s cultural needs, is rapidly bringing the
Filbert to the fore in the estimation of planters.

Trees grown at our Nurseries are withstanding temperatures of 15 degrees below
zero without winterkilling, which should be sufficient warranty of their hardiness
throughout the eastern and northeastern sections to call for extensive plantings. Mod-
erately rich, well-drained soil is required, and pruning is essential if grown in tree form,
although abundant crops of nuts are borne if permitted to grow naturally — in the form
of a many-stemmed bush. The nuts should not be gathered until ripe, which condi-
tion is indicated by a browning of the husk.

The Filbert has proved an excellent filler for walnut orchards, coming into bearing
early and remaining so low as not to interfere with the walnut trees. Should there come
a time when the walnuts need all the space^ t'he Filberts are easily removed.

Purple-leaved. One of the best of the Amer-
ican varieties; exceedingly ornamental,
and bearing large, thin-shelled nuts of de-
licious quality. The leaves and husk are of
a deep purple color, which is retained until
frost, forming a beautiful contrast with
green-leaved shrubs. 2-3 ft., $1 each, $9
per doz. ; 3-4 ft., $1.50 each, $15 per doz.

Hazelnut (American Filbert). Another of
the American varieties that ranks high as
an ornamental and bears large quantities
of sweet-flavored nuts. Should be more
widely planted for both reasons. 2—3 ft.,
75 cts. each, $7.50 per doz., $50 per 100;
3—4 ft., $1 each, $10 per doz., $75
per 100.

Kentish Cob (English Filbert). Layered.
Tree is productive of large oblong nuts;
kernel plump and of rich flavor; excellent
keeper. Husk smooth, longer than nut,
but slightly cut in margins. 2—3 ft., 75 cts.
each, $7.50 per doz., $40 per 100; 3—4 ft.,
$1 each, $10 per doz., $50 per 100.

COSFORD (Paper-Shell). We offer layered
plants of this highly prized European va-
riety that has won favor wherever grown
for its thin-shelled, oblong nut containing
a plump kernel of the richest flavor. Trees
are very productive. Strong plants at the
following prices: 2-3 ft., $1 each , $9
per doz., $60 per 100; 3-4 ft., $1.50 each,
$15 per doz.; 5-6 ft., $2 ea., $20 per doz.

Hickory (Carya). A genus ranking high in importance among our native trees.

The wood is extensively used in the construction of wagon wheels, implement handles,
and for other special purposes where strength combined with lightness is desired. Nuts
from several species of Carya are rich in food-value, and the demand for these nuts is
always in excess of the supply.

As the Hickories are slow-growing trees, they should not be planted on other than
fertile soil. A deep, rich loam, either of sandy or clayey nature, is to be sought so that
the long tap-root will find a sufficient supply of nourishment available.

SHAGBARK ( Carya ovata). The common Hickory-Nut tree, growing 50 to 75 feet high and
reaching a diameter of 2 feet. A handsome, stately shade tree with tough, white wood of
great strength and elasticity. The nut is the common hickory-nut of commerce, tempt-
ingly sweet-flavored and considered to be among the choicest of our edible nuts. Because
of the lack of fibrous roots and the formation of the long tap-root, we recommend the
planting of small trees. 2-3 ft., $1.50 each, $15 per doz.

Chestnut (Castanea) . This would be one of our most important commercial trees
were it not for the ravages of the Chestnut blight in recent years. A tall, straight
tree when growing in forests, it is the favorite timber for telegraph poles, and the great
variety of uses to which this wood can be put makes it incumbent on landowners to
reproduce, develop, and improve our existing stands and to guard against the advance
of such a destructive enemy as the blight has proved to be. Investigations are being
carried on by state and national experts looking toward the discovery of some treat-
ment that will successfully combat Chestnut blight. There is good reason to believe
that this will be discovered, and the Chestnut will again be free to prosper. In com-
mercial plantings, if the blight asserts itself, it can be largely controlled by spraying
and by prompt cutting-out of affected limbs or trees.

In addition to the timber value of the tree, the various species of Chestnut bear
edible nuts of varying size and flavor, which add considerably to its commercial value.

American Sweet. An excellent tree for shade,

Fruits for Home Use and for Market

Apples. Growing the Apple is a profitable commercial proposition, holding out to planters the possibility of an income from this
source about four times as great as could be derived from a similar acreage devoted to ordinary farm crops. Areas planted to Apple
trees may be intercropped with grains or small-fruits while the trees are coming to bearing age, so that it is possible to have some in-
come from such a plantation each year. The varieties we offer have been selected for their sterling worth, productiveness, disease-
resistance, flavor, time of ripening, and for other special reasons mentioned in the various descriptions.

The home garden that has the necessary space available is not complete without one or more Apple trees. The healthfulness of this
fruit is proverbial, '"and surely it is more pleasurable to buy an Apple tree than it is to pay a doctor’s bill.

somest Apples. They begin bearing in three years and
produce good crops thereafter.

Peaches. With the introduction of hardy varieties and the adaptation of cul-
tural requirements to local conditions, the Peach has gradually extended its range
throughout the United States and Canada, the United States alone, in 1915, pro-
ducing over 64,000,000 bushels of this fruit. The varieties in the following list com-
prise what we believe to be the best in Peaches. They furnish a succession for about
two months, commencing the early part of August. The trees are all shipped with
one-year tops and two-year roots. The size will vary according to the season and
variety. Plant 16 to 18 feet apart.

rears. Excellent fruit for eating out of hand or for canning purposes. Varieties are
now available that make possible Pears in good eating condition from August until
early spring. Particularly responsive to good cultivation and care, the Pear proves a
profitable crop when so favored. It is indispensable in the home-garden. The fruit
should be gathered ten days to two weeks before fully ripe and kept in a dark place
until matured. When the trees are heavily laden, the fruit should be thinned.

but little attention, are thrifty, vigorous, and prolific bearers. There are two prin-
cipal classes of Cherries: (1) Hearts and Bigarreaus and (2) Dukes and Morellos. The
former are strong and vigorous growers, making large, open, spreading heads; their fruit
is large, heart-shaped, meaty and sweet. The Dukes and Morellos do not attain so
large a size, and the fruit is usually sour.

Persimmons. The Standard Cyclopedia of Horticulture says that they are “in-
teresting and valuable edible fruits.” Two distinct types are grown in this country,
Diospyros virginiana, the native species, and D. Kaki, the Chinese-Japanese species. As
a rule, any soil not too wet will prove suitable for the Persimmon, but warm, deep,
rich loam gives best results. Thorough cultivation is important. As the roots go
deep into the soil, intercropping may be practised until the trees are large enough to
need the entire space.

American ( Diospyros virginiana). The native
species that will thrive and ripen its fruit
as far north as the Great Lakes. The dis-
agreeable astringent quality of this fruit
when green entirely disappears when fully
ripe, and it does not require the action of
frost to bring the fruit to an enjoyably
edible stage, as was once erroneously
supposed. $1 each, $9 per doz.

Japanese (D. Kaki). The Japanese con-
sider this to be their best native pomo-
Iogical product, and when once the Amer-
ican people become aware of its fine
qualities, it will be much more extensively
grown. Fruit is larger than the native Per-
simmon; tree somewhat tender and needs
protection in the North. We offer grafted
varieties, 3-4 ft., $1 each, $9 per doz.

A handsome bunch of Campbell Grapes

Grapes. With the almost general adoption of cold-storage methods for keeping Grapes,
the season in which this delicious fruit is available for eating has been so prolonged that,
lacking a few months, it practically circles the year. With its capacity for early bearing,
the Grape combines such desirable qualities as hardiness, rapid growth, generous shade,
and abundant crops. With the exercise of a little foresight, it may be made to serve a
distinct purpose in an ornamental planting scheme — over a trellis, along a wall, or trained
to cover a pergola.

Soil of moderate fertility is considered most suitable for the Grape, heavily enriched
land usually producing a rampant growth of canes and leaves at the expense of the fruit.
Good drainage is an essential, and a warm, sunny exposure desirable, while a regular and
thorough cultivation of the soil has a distinct bearing on the quality and quantity of the
fruit.

The highest type of product is obtained when the above conditions are met and the
fruit is bagged as soon as the bunches are formed. The extra labor involved in this pre-
ventive measure against intrusive insects and diseases is fully repaid in excellence of
ripened product.

Strong, selected vines, 50 cts. each, $5 per doz.

i Black Grapes

Campbell (Campbell’s Early). Bunches
thickly set with handsome, large, round ber-
ries with a light purple bloom; pulp tender,
rich, and sweet; vine healthy, hardy, vig-
orous, and a profuse bearer. The fruit
ripens very early and keeps in fine condi-
tion for weeks.

Concord. Bunches large and compact; ber-
ries large, round, almost black, covered with
bloom; pulp juicy and sweet; vine very
hardy and equally productive. A great
favorite in the markets, although too ten-
der for shipping long distances.

McPike. Bunches large and compact, like its
parent, Worden; berries very large, black;
pulp tender and very juicy. Healthy and

Moore. Bunches large; berries large, round,
black, with a heavy blue bloom; pulp ol
good quality; vine notably resistant to dis-
ease and very hardy, withstanding tempera-
tures of 20 degrees below zero without
injury. Maturing twenty days before Con-
cord makes it a desirable variety for early
y selling.

Worden. Bunches large, compact, and hand-

sable variety for the far North, ripening its
wood to the tip under a load of fruit of
which the Niagara would not ripen one-half.
Should be largely planted.

Wyoming. Bunches compact and handsome;
berries twice the size of those of the Dela-
ware, bright red; pulp juicy and sweet; vine
hardy and healthy, with thick, leathery
foliage. A fine extra-early market Grape.

portion as its cultural requirements are met.

entirely free from mildew. Ripens a few
days before Cjdncord.

Green Mountain (Winchell). Bunches long,
compact, shouldered; berries oval, greenish
white; pulp tender, juicy, very sweet and
rich; vine hardy, vigorous, healthy, and
very productive. Ripens three weeks earlier
than Concord.

Niagara. Bunches very large, uniform, and
compact; berries large, pale yellow, with a
thin white bloom; pulp melting, sweet, and
delightful; vine strong grower and very
hardy. An excellent variety for either
home- or market-garden. Ripens a little
before Concord.

Strawberries. As a dessert fruit or in preserves, the Strawberry is an assured favor-
ite with the whole family. The market-gardener finds ready sale for his choice berries,
and there is an attractive financial aspect to Strawberry-growing. The varieties we offer
herewith are all staminate (self-fertilizing), have been thoroughly tested over a wide range,
and we have confidence born of experience in their sterling qualities. When plants are
received, immerse immediately in water and then bury the roots in fine, moist soil, in a
shady place, until ready to set them out.

for picking a week before the first early va-
rieties of the old kinds, continuing until
frozen in the fall. Needs rich soil to sus-
- tain its wonderful activity.

Superb. Very large and firm; glossy, very
attractive, and of the finest flavor. Brings
every blossom to maturity and yields as
much fruit in autumn as the average spring-
bearing varieties do in May. Will bear
continuously from spring until checked by
hard freezing.

Raspberries. With the spring-bearing Strawberry season over, the Raspberry ripens
just in time to fill what would otherwise be a gap in our summer eating of fresh fruit.
In the home it is prized for desserts and jams; on the markets it finds a ready sale at prices
that make it a profitable crop; for drying and canning it is much in favor, the Raspberry
being one of the very few fruits that retain the original flavor when subjected to these
preserving processes.

Good, deep, rich soil is suggested for Raspberries. The hills should not be less than 4
feet apart each way, with two or three plants in a hill. Cut out the old and weak shoots
each year, preserving not over six for fruiting. Weed out surplus suckers, for they take
the strength away from the bearing plants.

If the location is so much exposed that the plants have a tendency to winterkill, bend
them over in autumn on mounds of earth formed at one side of the hills, and cover suf-

Red and Yellow Raspberries

Columbian. Very large, somewhat conical;
dark red; rich, juicy, of exceptional quality;
seed small; bears large crops. Very valu-
able for both table and for canning. Fruit-
ing season from July 12 to August 15.

Cuthbert (Queen of the Market). Large, coni-
cal; deep rich crimson; firm and of excellent
quality; vigorous and produces fine crops.

Golden Queen. Large; beautiful amber
color; firm, delicious; vigorous grower, im-
mensely productive, and hardy enough for
extreme northern latitudes.

Herbert. The great commercial Raspberry.
Extraordinarily large, oblong; bright red
and handsome; very sweet and juicy, with
a delicate wild taste all its own; nearly
twice as productive as former standard
varieties. Its hardiness is unquestioned,
growing vigorously and producing heavy
crops as far north as Hudson Bay. Strong,
two-year-old plants, $2 per doz., $10 per 100^

Erskine Park. Everbearing Red Raspberry.
Pick berries all through next summer. The
Erskine Park Everbearing Red Raspberry
is a seedling from the old reliable Cuthbert,
discovered on the Westinghouse Estate.
(Erskine Park) at Lee, Mass., by Mr. Ed-
ward Norman. This magnificent estate is
in the midst of the beautiful Berkshire Hills,
with a temperature in winter of 30 or 40
degrees below zero, so that the hardiness of
this berry is unquestioned. The estate is

Erskine Park, continued

surrounded by the summer homes of many
wealthy people, and much to the surprise
of his neighbor’s gardeners and not without
a great deal of personal satisfaction, Mr.
Norman furnished large, luscious raspberries
throughout the fall for various dinner
parties. Of this berry we cannot say too
much in praise, and we predict that it will
be a standard for planting in every garden
and considered a necessity. Conceive the
joy and satisfaction of having such berries
on your table all through the autumn, the
source of wonder to your neighbors, that
you can pick the finest Raspberries until
the snow flies. On November 20 we cut a
large branch of the Erskine Park with
blossoms, green berries and ripe fruit upon it.
Two-year bearing bushes, $3 for 6, $5 per
doz., $30 per 100.

Black Raspberries

Cumberland. Largest black Raspberry
known; berries glossy, firm, and unsurpassed
in quality; perfectly hardy and very pro-
ductive. A splendid shipper, ripening just
before Gregg.

Munger. Fruit resembles the Gregg in some
particulars, but is larger, better flayored,
tougher in texture, and a better shipper;
sweet and juicy, even in dry seasons when
other varieties are dry and seedy. Canes
are free from disease and upright in growth.

HAS ERSKINE PARK MADE GOOD?

Worcester, Mass., August 14, 1919
Messrs. Glen Bros., Inc., Rochester, N. Y.

Gentlemen: — 1 should like to order another hundred ol
your Erskine Park Everbearing Raspberry plants. Please
let me know what time it is best to plant them. The ones
you have sent me have done very well. Two died — the re-
mainder are very satisfactory. Yours truly.

Geo. Crompton.

Loganberry. Blackberry-Raspberry hybrid.

Judge J. H. Logan, of Santa Cruz, discovered
this remarkable fruit. The vine is a strong grower
and an enormous bearer; fruit as large as the
largest blackberry, of same form; color dark,
bright red; flavor is a combination of that of the
parents — mild, vinous, very pleasant. Makes an
excellent dessert fruit and is unequaled for jams
and jellies. Ripens before blackberries and rasp-
berries become plentiful. Ships well. 50 cts.
each, $5 per doz.

Blackberries. Much the same conditions called for in successful raspberry-culture are
needed for the Blackberry. Being a more rampant grower, however, the rows should be kept
6 to 8 feet apart, with single plants 2 feet apart in the rows. Pruning during the summer will
serve to keep the stalks within bounds and add to their productiveness. Thorough shallow culti-
vation of the land will be more beneficial than much manuring.

Prices, unless otherwise noted, strong plants, $1.50 per doz., $10 per 100

Blowers. Extremely large, averaging 1 inch in
diameter and 1 34 to 134 inches long; exceedingly
sweet, with no perceptible core; wonderfully
vigorous, many of the canes reaching 14 feet in
length; perfectly hardy. Strong plants, $2 per
doz., $15 per 100.

Early Harvest. Berries rather small, very juicy,
sweet, and of excellent quality; canes strong and
upright in growth, with few thorns; an enormous
bearer.

Mersereau. Extra large; brilliant black, retaining
that color; sweet, rich and melting, without core;
remarkably strong grower, producing stout,
stocky canes. Withstands temperatures of 15 to
25 degrees below zero.

Snyder. Medium size; sweet and melting, with no
hard, sour core; extremely hardy and enor-
mously productive; very few thorns. A popular
variety where earliness and hardiness are im-
portant considerations.

Gooseberries. Of recent years this fruit has been steadily improved in America, and there
are now available for cultivation both English and American varieties that are resistant to the
Gooseberry mildew and bear abundant crops of the delicious fruit that is mostly used in cooking
in this country but largely eaten out of hand in England.

Prices, except where otherwise noted, $3.50 per doz., $25 per 100

English Gooseberry

Victoria. A large-fruited English variety that is
far superior to any other Gooseberry and never
mildews. Berries large and of fine quality, borne
in marvelous quantities; ripens seven to ten days
earlier than other varieties. One bush has pro-
duced twenty-eight and one-half pounds of fruit
in a single season. Rapid, vigorous grower.
50 cts. each, $4 per doz., $25 per 100.

American Gooseberries

Downing. Large, handsome, pale green, distinctly
veined; skin smooth; flesh rather soft, juicy,
fine for dessert or cooking; vigorous; productive.

Houghton. Medium size; pale red; tender and good;
makes a slender, spreading growth, but is hardy
and enormously productive. A reliable variety.

Red Jacket. Large, oval; skin smooth, red; flavor
of the best; a wonderful cropper.

Currants. The hardiness of the Currant and its fruitfulness have been so taken as a matter of
course by American planters that a minimum of care and cultivation has been given it. As a
result, the fruit has been small, the bushes scraggly, and disease and insect troubles present. Good
cultivation and judicious pruning will triple the size of the fruits; and the currant-worm can be
exterminated with white hellebore powder. We have strong transplants of the finest varieties.

Prices, except where otherwise noted, $3 per doz., $20 per 100
Black Champion. Large; berries black and of finest Fay’s Prolific. Clusters large; berries large; rich

red; less acid than Cherry, long-stemmed, and
easily picked; a great bearer.

Perfection. Clusters large, long; berries uniformly
large; color beautiful bright red; flavor rich,
mild, subacid; good grower and very productive.

quality; bears large crops. Fine for cooking,
jams, etc.

Cherry. Clusters moderately long; berries very''
large, often ^ inch in diameter, round; deep red;
rather acid in flavor; plants erect, stout, vigorous,
and productive.

50 cts. each, $5 per doz., $35 per 100.

Comet. Clusters frequently 8 inches long, with White Grape. Clusters large and handsome; ber-

twenty to twenty-six very large berries to the
cluster; berries brilliant red, of fine quality, re-
freshing and soft to the palate, without acidity;
growth abnormally vigorous. One of the best
varieties for the home garden.

ries large, yellowish white, sweet and mildly
acid; very productive. Fine table variety.

Wilder. Clusters very large; berries large; bright
red; of highest subacid flavor; strong grower,
enormously productive.

Asparagus. Speaking of this delicacy, the Standard Cyclopedia of Horticulture says: “To
anyone who has even a little land to use for a home-garden, no better advice could be given
than to plant in a corner, or at one side of it, fifty or one hundred Asparagus roots for his family,
as no other use of that spot, ordinarily, will give more real benefit, enjoyment, and value.”

To obtain the choice, early stalks that bring high prices in market, the ground should be rich,
warm, and mellow. For quick results, secure two-year-old plants, setting them in the garden in
rows 18 to 20 inches apart, with plants 10 to 12 inches apart in the row.

Prices, strong, 2-year-old plants, $2 per 100, $15 per 1,000
Columbian Mammoth White. Produces large. Giant. Excels in productiveness and earliness;

thick, white shoots in abundance. A valuable
variety for canning.

Conover. Great deep green shoots of excellent
quality, sent up thickly from the crown, make
this one of the most desirable varieties.

tender and very rich. Succeeds well in all
climates.

Palmetto. Very early, even and regular in size, and
of fine quality. A favorite for market, where it
commands high prices.

Rhubarb (Pie Plant). Ten to twenty good plants will furnish enough of this delicious
garden vegetable to satisfy the average family. An extra-early supply may be obtained by placing
barrels over a few of the plants and piling warm horse-manure about them.

Champagne. New. Extra-large, beautiful crimson
stalks that surpass all other varieties in flavor,
tenderness, and size. 50 cts. each, $3 per doz.

Myatt’s Linnaeus. Early; very large, tender, and
delicately flavored stalks. $1.50 per doz.

Victoria. Its immense cherry-red stalks that are
both tender and of a sprightly flavor, are in
great demand for canning. On rich soil, it will
produce leaf-stems 3 feet long and up to 2 inches
in diameter. $1.50 per doz.

ELDERBERRY TREES

PHOTO SHOWS HOW THICKLY THE BERRY CLUSTERS GROW

Imagine the joy of picking large bunches of ripe, delicious Elderberries from trees growing in your own garden.
Heretofore the only way one could get Elderberries was to go out in the country and gather them from the trees growing wild
in the fence corners and along hedge-rows, but we have solved the problem for you in our NURSERY GROWN TREES.

Plant a few in your garden this spring. The fruit makes delicious pies and jam. Elderberry wine has been a common
home product. Color of fruit is black or blackish. Height of tree is only ten to twenty ft. when fully grown and the trees
may be planted close together. Requires no care or attention and commence bearing abundantly almost immediately.

We offer for Spring Planting a limited number of extra fine nursery grown trees, 4-5 ft. in size, at $1.50, each, $15.00
per dozen. Order at once as our stock will soon be exhausted.

Dependable Trees PSumtg from €i>l®2mw®®<i, Wwsmrf

The Color Value of Evergreen Trees

A planting that depends entirely upon deciduous trees for ornamental effects is sure to have a bleak appearance during the winter
months. The leaves are gone, and bare limbs and trunks do not, for some reason, impart the same impression of life as do trees carry-
ing their green covering throughout the year.

That is one very important reason for planting evergreen trees — they provide living green coloring during an otherwise bleak
season, imparting a sense of continuous growth to beholders. They have importance, too, as windbreaks or shelterbelts, as screens
for undesirable views, or as a means of insuring privacy.

We are careful to-dig all evergreens with a ball of earth, which we wrap with burlap, thus assuring safe shipment. In ordinary
seasons, the most favorable times for planting are the latter part of April, or during May, or toward the end of summer. August plant-
ing is not recommended, however, unless the season is favorable.

Abies (Fir). So nearly are these beautiful, luxuriant evergreens like the spruces
that frequently there is difficulty in distinguishing between them. There are certain
characteristics, however, that make identification easy. The Fir’s branches stand out
stiffly horizontal, rather than drooping or ascending; the leaves have a similar hori-
zontal tendency and are thickly crowded along the branches; the cones stand stiffly
upright all their days instead of eventually drooping, as do those of the spruce. Cer-
tain of the species are invaluable for the formation of windbreaks and so indifferent
about soil conditions and low temperatures that they are wisely chosen where adap-
tability and resistance to unfavorable circumstances are required.

Abies balsamea. Balsam or Balm of Gilead Abies homolepis (A. brachyphylla). A vig-
orous, tall-growing Fir from the moun-
tains of central Japan, which ultimately
forms a broad, round head; leaves long,
sharp-pointed, dark green and lustrous
above, silvery white beneath; cones cyl-
indrical, dark purple. Very hardy, and
one of the most desirable Fir trees for the
northern states. 3-4 ft., $7 each.

A. Nordmanniana. Nordmann’s Silver Fir.

Height 100 to 150 feet; a rich, dense, dark
evergreen of symmetrical form; vigorous
and hardy; foliage wide, dark, lustrous,
with a silvery undersurface. When its full
height is reached, the tree is majestic and
imposing. 1)^-2 ft., $2.25 each; 2-3 ft.,

$5 each; 3-4 ft., $7.50 each.

Fir. Height, 50 to 80 feet ; a rapid-growin
symmetrical, cone-shaped tree, with dar!
lustrous green leaves which are lighter
beneath; very hardy, thriving in cold,
boggy land, where few evergreens will
grow. The foliage emits a spicy fragrance
when bruised. 2-3 ft., $2.50 each.

A. concolor. White Fir. A native of the Rocky
Mountains that assumes giant proportions
with age, specimens to 250 feet high having
been known. Its graceful form and bright
coloring when young, however, give it
more importance than does its tremen-
dous size of later years. Foliage broad,
handsome, glinting with blue above, sil-
very beneath. 2—3 ft., $5 each.

Chamaecyparis (Retinospora and Cypress). These low-growing evergreens
are neat, compact, of symmetrical form, and, if kept trimmed, retain their orna-
mental value for many years. The foliage is of fine texture, feathery, lacelike, and in
color ranges through varying shades of green to steel-blue and orange-yellow.
Chamaecyparis obtusa nana. Dwarf Retinos-
pora. Smallest of the Retinosporas, form-
ing a bushy specimen, very dense, short,
dark green foliage.’ 1— 1)4 ft., $2.50 each.

C. obtusa nana aurea. Golden Dwarf Retin-

Abies concolor — stately and graceful

ospora. In form very similar to the pre-
ceding, but the foliage is a beautiful golden
color. 1H-2 ft., $2.50 each; 2r3 ft., $5 ea.

C. pisifera. Sawara or Pea-fruited Cypress.
Foliage bright green, feathery, and borne
on somewhat pendulous branches. Al-
together a lovely little specimen, one which
the Japanese delight to grow in miniature
by clipping, pruning, and contorting.
2-3 ft., $3 each; 3-4 ft., $5 each.

C. pisifera aurea. Golden Pea-fruited Cypress.
A very distinct form of the above, with the
new growth a rich golden yellow. 2)4-3 ft.,
$3 each; 3-4 ft., $4.50 each.

Chamaecyparis pisifera filifera (C. filifera).
Thread-branched Cypress. An elegant tree.
The branches are thread-like and droop
gracefully; foliage bright green. Make
attractive specimens when planted alone.
2-2V2 ft., $3 each; 3-4 ft., $5 each.

C. pisifera plumosa (C. plumosa). Plume-
like Cypress. One of the favorite varieties
for hedges or for extensive bedding plan-
tations, its dense, yet fleecy, light green
foliage making it decidedly appropriate
for such use. 2-3 ft., $3 each; 3)4~4 ft.,
$4 each.

C. pisifera squarrosa (C. squarrosa). One

of the daintiest of this graceful species,
with silvery blue, feathery foliage. The
plant may be kept at any height by prun-
ing, which process does not disturb it.
2-3 ft., $2.50 each; 3-4 ft., $4 each.

Juniperus (Juniper and Cedar). A group of evergreens of varying forms and
of much beauty, ranging from low, prostrate or trailing shrubs to tall trees. The
upright forms are usually of pyramidal or columnar habit and prove effective planted
either as specimens on the lawn or in groups. The low forms are adaptable to rocky
slopes or sandy banks. Some make excellent hedges, shelters, and windbreaks.

Juniperus communis aurea. Golden Common
Juniper. Low-growing and spreading, par-
ticularly useful for edging. The tips of the
branchlets are a bright golden yellow color
which contrasts well with the older growth.

1-1)4 ft., $2.50 each.

Juniperus communis hibernica. Irish Juni-
per. A slender, columnar form that is
much in favor. The branches are upright-
growing, closely appressed, and densely
covered with the deep green foliage. 2-3
ft., $1.50 each; 3-4 ft., $2.50 each.

Juniperus communis bibernica — the slender, columnar
Irish Juniper. (See page 11.)

Juniperus communis suecica. Swedish Ju-
niper. Upright form, similar to the pre-
ceding but the branches have a slightly
more open manner of growth. Foliage
glaucous green, lighter and more bluish
than that of the Irish Juniper. 2—3 ft.,
$2.50 each.

J. Sabina. Savin Juniper. Low, bushy,
spreading, with very dense, dark green
foliage that emits a strong odor when
bruised; can be pruned to any desired
shape. Very hardy, and suitable for
lawns and cemeteries. 2—3 ft., $2.50 each.

J. Sabina prostrata. Dwarf Savin Juniper.
A trailing variety that is valuable on light
soils and for rock-gardens. Foliage bright
green, bronzy in winter. Can be trained
into almost any shape desired. Very
hardy. l}^-2-ft. spread, $2 each; 2-3-ft.
spread, $3 each.

Juniperus virginiana. Red Cedar. A tail-
rowing native tree of great beauty and
ardiness, varying somewhat in habit of
growth from regular and conical to loose
and irregular, but retaining its handsome
appearance withal. Usually densely
branched and thickly clothed with deep,
rich green foliage. 2-3 ft., $2 each; 3-4
ft., $3 each; 4-5 ft., $4 each.

J. virginiana glauca. Blue Cedar. A vigor-
ous-growing variety that is closely allied
to the preceding, but distinct in having
beautiful, silvery Hue foliage. Keeps its
color well throughout the entire year.
Perfectly hardy and transplants easily.
3-4 ft., $5 each; 4-5 ft., $8 each.

J. virginiana pyramidalis. Hardy, vigorous
plant of dense, columnar form, with sil-
very and light green foliage. One of the
best for formal gardens. 4—5 ft., $4 each.

ricea (Spruce) . This genus boasts of some of the most ornamental as well as some
of the most useful of the conifers. Many are rapid, symmetrical growers, making
them desirable for ornamental park planting; they are also favorite subjects for
Christmas trees. The wood is much used in ship-building, for construction, and interior
finish of houses. The bark of some species furnishes elements of certain medicines, as
well as being used for tanning leather. One way of distinguishing the Spruces from fir
trees is by noting that on Spruce trees the cones hang down; on firs they remain upright.

Picea bicolor (P. Alcockiana). Alcock's
Spruce. A medium-sized tree from Japan,
with slender, spreading branches and pale
green foliage that is silvery underneath;
cones 3 to 4 inches long, purple when
young, light brown at maturity. 2-3 ft.,
$3 each.

P. excelsa. Norway Spruce. A tall, pictur-
esque tree that is very popular as an orna-
mental and for shelters and windbreaks.
It is hardy, of rapid growth, and adapt-
able to a variety of locations. Foliage
dark green and shiny; cones 4 to 7 inches
long, light brown. Stands pruning well
when used for hedges. 1 3^-2 ft., 75 cts.
each, $6 per doz., $50 per 100; 2-3 ft.,
$1.25 each, $12 per doz., $75 per 100;
3-4 ft., $2 each, $18 per doz.; 4-5 ft.,
$3 each.

Picea pungens Kosteri (P. pungens Kos-
teriana). Koster’s Blue Spruce. Without
a doubt the finest Spruce for garden or
lawn; very distinct, both in growth and
foliage, the regular, pyramidal shape and
the beautiful silvery blue leaves giving it
exceptional ornamental value. 1 J^-2 ft.,
$2.50 each; 2}i~3 ft., $5 each; 3-4 ft.,
$8 each; 4-5 ft., $15 each.

P. Douglasii (Pseudotsuga Douglasii; Ps.
taxifolia). Douglas7 Spruce. A pyramidal
tree that grows to tremendous proportions,
specimens being known that are 200 feet
and more in height, with a trunk diameter
of 12 feet. Probably produces more lum-
ber to the acre than any other species. Hor-
izontal branches and pendulous branch-
lets; foliage bluish green. 2J^-3 ft., $3
each; 3-4 ft., $4 each; 4-5 ft., $5 each.

rinus (Pine). Majestic specimens of evergreen tree-life, some varieties of which
are to be found in almost every country of the globe — in cold places, in warm places,
in temperate places. They are strong, rapid growers, and will thrive better on poor
soils than on extremely rich ones, although they are grateful for medium conditions —
well-drained, deep, loamy sand that is loose enough to allow the heavy tap-root sys-
tem full development. Pine trees should be transplanted when young.

Pinus Banksiana. Jack Pine. Large,
shrubby tree, with slender, spreading
branches; branchlets yellowish to pur-
plish brown; leaves stiff, twisted, dark
green; cones pale yellow-brown. The
most northern of American Pines and
quite hardy. 5-6 ft., $4 each.

P. excelsa. Bbotan Pine. Reaches a height
of 150 feet, with spreading branches, the
upper ones slightly ascending, which gives
it the appearance of a broad, irregular
pyramid. Leaves are grayish or bluish
green, 6 to 8 inches long, arranged in fives;
cones cylindric, 6 to 8 inches long. 2-3 ft.,
$3 each; 3-4 ft., $4 each.

P. montana Mughus. Mugbo Pine. A hand-
some, low, spreading shrub, with ascend-
ing branches and short, bright green
leaves in pairs; cones 1 to 2 inches long,
grayish brown. 15 x 15 in., $3 each;
2x2 ft., $5 each.

Pinus nigra austriaca (P. Laricio austriaca).
Austrian Pine. Height, 60 to 150 feet;
a robust grower, with leaves in pairs,
about 4 inches.Iong, rigid, very dark green;
cones 2 to 3 inches long, of a yellowish
brown color. Wonderfully adaptable to
conditions and does especially well at the
seashore. There is a quarantine against
the White Pine and we suggest that our
customers plant the Austrian Pine in-
stead. 2-3 ft., $2 each ; 3-4 ft., $3.50 each ;
4-5 ft., $5 each.

P. sylvestris. Scotch Pine. A tall-growing,
broadly pyramidal tree with strong, erect
shoots and bluish green needles; cones
grayish or reddish brown, 1 to 224 inches
long. Quite hardy, and one of the most
important timber trees of Europe. Makes
a good growth, even when planted in
very poor soils. 2-3 ft., $2.50 each; 3-4
ft., $3.50 each.

Sciadopitys verticillata. Umbrella Pine. Beautiful Japanese tree with compact
branches so arranged as to form a narrow, pyramidal head; as the tree ages, the branches
become more spreading and even pendulous. The leaves are rather large, needle-like,
lustrous, deep green, arranged in whorls of fifteen to thirty. Extremely hardy, enduring
temperatures far below zero. 2-3 ft,, $5 each.

Sequoia gigantea. California Big Tree. One of our earliest recollections has to do with a
schoolbook picture of a horse and wagon being driven through a tunnel in the trunk of one
of these giants — trees that grow more than 300 feet high with a diameter of 20 to 30 feet.
We have Rochester-grown trees of this species which, while they may not reach the gigantic
proportions of those grown in the favorable climatic conditions of the Pacific coast, will prove
interesting subjects to grow. Foliage is gray or bluish green, completely clothing the
branches. 1-134 ft., $3 each; specimens, 2-3 ft., $10 each.

i axus (Yew) . Evergreen, slow-growing trees with dark green foliage densely cloth-
ing the branches, the Golden Y ew being the family exception in that the new growth
is of a bright straw color. In autumn, the bright scarlet berries that generously dot
the green background make a brave showing. Growers of an earlier day were fond of
trimming- the Yews in fantastic shapes and in the days when England fought her bat-
tles with the bow and arrow, the strong, elastic wood was made up into bows.

Taxus baccata. English Yew. Slow-growing
trees that will reach a height of 60 feet if
left to grow naturally; can be sheared to
almost any shape or size, however; usu-
ally has short, thick trunk, dark green
foliage, and is resplendent in autumn with
bright scarlet berries. A useful and desir-
able tree. 2-3 ft., $3 each.

T. baccata aurea. Golden Yew. An effective
variety of the above which, in June or
July, stands out among an evergreen
planting because of the bright straw color
of the new growth. Is desirable as a lawn
specimen, where its unique color adds the
charm of variety. One of the hardiest of
the Yews and one of the most beautiful.
134-2 ft., $3 each.

Taxus canadensis. Canadian Yew. A low,
prostrate shrub, with wide-spreading,
slender branches that are densely clothed
with the yellowish green leaves that in
winter usually assume a reddish tint.
The crimson berries ripen about two
months earlier than do those of the English
variety. A splendid hardy evergreen for
carpet-bedding. 1J4_2 ft., $2.50 each.

T. cuspidata capitata. Clustered Japanese
Yew. A free-growing, open tree of the
highest merit and of great hardiness,
standing New England climates and
thriving in practically any soil or situa-
tion. Needles of a warm green color.
Distinctly Japanese in effect. A rare ac-
quisition. 2—3 ft., $5 each.

Thuja (Arborvitae) . Some botantists call this useful genus “Thuya.” There are a
number of widely varying forms that give it adaptability to many different locations
— tall, spire-like forms, pyramidal forms, globular forms. The coloring likewise varies —
light green, bright green, dark green, bluish green, golden green, golden yellow, bronze,
so that whatever seem to be the color-note and form needed in a given landscape
problem, there is an Arborvitae to supply the need.

Thuja occidentalis. American Arborvitse.
If permitted to follow its own inclination,
this species will develop into a tree 60 feet
tall, with short, horizontal branches which
turn up near the end, giving it a compact,
pyramidal form ; leaves bright green above,
yellowish green beneath, in winter assum-
ing tones of bro vn or bronze. Y oung trees
of this and the following varieties make
excellent specimens for planting in tubs,
vases, or jardinieres for winter decora-
tion of porches, etc.; also much used in for-
mal gardens and as hedges; for the latter
use, small plants, 18 to 24 inches high, are
recommended. 134-2 ft., 75 cts. each,
$8 per doz., $50 per 100; 2-3 ft., $1 each,
$10 per doz., $75 per 100; 3^ ft., $2 each,
$20 per doz.; 4-5 ft., $3 each, $30 per doz.;
5-6 ft., specimens, $5 each.

T. occidentalis compacta. Parson’s Compact
Arborvitx. A low-growing, dense, globular
form of the above, with light grayish
green foliage. Splendid for formal plant-
ings and a favorite nearly everywhere.
134-2 ft., $2 each.

Broad-Leaved Evergreen Shrubs

The winter aspect of home grounds may be greatly enhanced by a planting here and there of some of the luxuriant shrubs listed in
this department. Properly grouped in beds and borders or as foundation plantings, their rich, lustrous green foliage adds color and
charm to the whole planting-scheme. The flowers and berries that appear in their respective seasons make these shrubs stand out strongly
as year-round ornamentals. A cool, moist soil, with a porous substratum, and a northern exposure, is preferred location with most mem-
bers of the group. We ship all these Evergreen Shrubs with a ball of earth, wrapped in burlap. They will bloom the first season.

Azalea Kaempferi (Rhododendron Kaempferi ; R. indicum) . Richness of coloring and pro-
fuseness of bloom are two of the qualities that make this shrub such a pleasing subject in
the summer-time. The dark green leaves, attractive the year round, make a fitting back-
ground for the rich masses of bloom and also make it an ornamental specimen during the
winter months. Very hardy, withstanding the cold weather at the Arnold Arboretum
without winter-killing. If planted in a partially shaded position, the brilliant flowers
remain longer in good condition than if planted in full sunlight. Splendid bushy plants,
12-15 in., $2.50 each, $25 per doz; 15-18 in., $2.50 each.

A. Hinodigiri. A hardy, vigorous-growing variety with bright carmine flowers in such pro-
fusion as almost to hide the dense, round, dark green foliage. The flowers remain open
for a long time. In winter, the leaves take on a reddish tinge. Imported plants, 1—134 ft.,
$3 each, $30 per doz.; 134_2 ft., $5 each.

Kalmia latifolia. Mountain Laurel. Dense, rounded, bushy shrubs, witheiongated, oblong,
bright evergreen leaves, and a profusion of bloom in early spring. The pink buds are
beautiful in themselves, and open to large corymbs of charming pink and white flowers.
Useful for massing with rhododendrons or by themselves. We control large tracts in the
mountains of Pennsylvania, and our facilities for collecting are unexcelled. We can supply
strong, bushy, well-shaped plants in almost any size and quality. Write us for prices on
carload lots — 300 to 600 plants, according to size. We take great care to lift all plants with
a ball of earth so that there will be no shock to the plant in transplanting. 2-3 ft. clumps,
$4 each, $40 per doz., $300 per 100; 4-5 ft., $7 each, $75 per doz.

Mahonia Aquifolium. Holly-leaved. Mahonia. A bushy shrub, with ascending branches
and large, holly-like leaves of shining purplish green, which in winter turns to beautiful
bronze tints; flowers are small but of a rich yellow color, followed by clusters of blue-black
berries. Fine in masses or for borders. Does best in rather moist soil. 1—1 34 ft., 75 cts.
each, $7.50 per doz.; 13d>-2 ft., $1 each, $10 per doz.

M. japonica. Japanese Mahonia. A worthy member of this family with large, smooth,
dark green leaves and pleasing racemes of yellow flowers in early spring, followed by dark
purple berries. 1-1 x/i ft., 75 cts. each, $7.50 per doz.

Pachysandra terminalis. Japanese Spurge. A low, dense growing evergreen plant,
with glossy foliage of a dark green color. Splendidly adapted for covering the ground,
especially in moist, shady situations where it is often difficult to establish grass. Its
multitude of white flowers disposed in small terminal spikes against its dark green carpet
makes it a most charming little plant. Field-grown plants, $2 per doz., $15 per 100.

Rhododendrons. Handsome, large-leaved, hardy evergreen shrubs that
make effective foundation planting, and front-line specimens for large-grow-
ing evergreen masses. They are the most imposing and attractive of all
shrubs in foliage and when in bloom the most gorgeous. No other flower is
so rich in bloom and color as the Rhododendron. No planting is complete
without them, for they are attractive the year round and form a very pleasing
mass of dark green color in the winter landscape.

R. Carolinianum. A new American species. Clear pink. Absolutely hardy. This is one cf
our finest introductions and fills a long-felt want for a hardy dwarf Rhododendron, with
flowers free from any hint of magenta. It was described and named by Alfred Rehder
of the Arnold Arboretum. It is the smallest Alleghanian species, attaining a height of
6 to 8 feet in cultivation. The thick-set leaves are dark green, usually blunt and narrow.
Much smaller than either Maximum or Catawbiense. Flower clusters appear in greatest
profusion in June, covering the plant with a rose-colored mantle. Stands exposure unus-
ually well and is invaluable as a single specimen or for massing. 2-3-ft. clumps, $4 each,
$40 per doz., $300 per 100.

R. Catawbiense. Of the Carolina mountains. The hardiest of all Rhododendrons. It was
this magnificent Rhododendron that over a hundred years ago was introduced into
Europe — supplying, together with R. maximum, color and hardy blood to the cultivated
“hybrids.” Considering the extreme hardiness, color of flower, compact growth, and
remarkable texture of foliage, which is a deep, shining green, and far superior to the
better-known R. maximum, we can recommend the true native Catawbiense as the
finest for general use, withstanding exposure and extremes of temperature where other
Rhododendrons fail. Unlike R. maximum, it is a very free bloomer, with foliage of a dark,
rich, lasting green, which never rusts. The trusses of flowers are a bright red-purple.
2-3-ft. clumps, $4 each, $40 per doz., $300 per 100; 4-5-ft. specimens, XXX, $10 each,
$100 per doz.

R. Maximum. Great Laurel. A well-known native of our mountain regions, with great
white or rose-pink clusters of flowers in June and July, just after the hybrid varieties
have ceased blooming. 2— 3-ft. clumps, $3 each, $30 per doz., $200 per 100; 4-5-ft. speci-
mens, XX, $5 each, $50 per doz., $375 per 100; 6-7-ft. specimens, XXX, $10 each,
$100 per doz.

SPECIMEN RHODODENDRON CATAWBIENSE and KALMIA have diameter of
spread about equal to height with fifteen or more stalks to a clump, of height stated.

NOTE. — Upon request, further particulars and prices of carload shipments will be
given. For the area covered, and the effect produced, a carload of Rhododendrons
or Kalmias is the most charming landscape proposition offered.

Y UCCa filamentosa. Adam’s Needle. Handsome evergreen plant with sword-like leaves
that in June or July sends up tall stalks bearing creamy white bell-like flowers. Very
effective as corner-pieces for shrubby hedges. 50 cts. each, $5 per doz.

WE LIKE TO PLEASE FOLKS. Mr. Samuel Regester, President of The Duntreath Corporation, of
Richmond, Va., in writing about a consignment of shrubs from Glenwood Nursery, says: “ It gives us a
great deal of pleasure to advise you that our landscape engineer, in opening the crate of shrubs, not only
found them in first-class condition, but was delighted with the character, size, and packing; indeed, he
stated that they were the nicest shrubs of the kind that he had ever seen.”

Our Nut Trees, planted this year, will prove better than an income insurance
policy in cost, time of maturity, and amount of income. Think it over!

Deciduous Trees as Ornamentals

The American forests have given us some of the most majestic specimens of tree life to be found anywhere on the globe — trees that
are giants in height and spread. Here, too, are to be found symmetrically formed trees, irregular trees, compact trees, open-head trees,
dwarf trees, some with beautiful flowers, others with richly colored foliage — in fact, Nature seems to have lavished upon the American
continent a complete arboretum so far as varying forms are concerned.

We have gathered together at Glenwood Nursery such trees as have particular ornamental value, and are growing them and their varie-
ties under conditions that promote vigor of growth and assure continued sturdiness when transplanted to a customer’s grounds. Some are
especially adapted to lawn planting; others for streets and avenues; others for parks and large estates. There are few places that will
not be improved in appearance by the addition of some Deciduous Trees, and a wisely planned and planted home grounds or estate takes

on financial value away in excess of the amount expended in adding the trees. Plant
more trees around you; they will give shade, beauty, food for birds and bees, provide
nesting-places for birds, and bring generous financial recompense.

for children. Foliage is glossy and handsomely Iobed; fruit reddish purple. $3 each.

M. Downingii. Downing Everbearing Mulberry. A beautiful lawn or street tree that has
sufficient merit in its habit of growth and foliage effect to commend it; but it has the added
advantage of bearing in abundance, for almost three months, large, black, subacid fruits
that are delightfully refreshing. $1 each.

Paillo Wllia tomentosa (P. imperialis). Empress Tree. Height, about 40 feet; a handsome
tropical-appearing tree with large leaves somewhat like those of the catalpas; flowers pale

Populus (Poplar). Everybody from the most youthful schoolboy to the
most prosperous real-estate promoter knows some one or more of the Poplar
species. They are easy-going trees with a happy tendency to grow rapidly, so
that where quick effects rather than permanency are desired — plant Poplars.

Populus alba Bolleana. Bolle’s Poplar.
Very tall, narrow-topped tree, with
grayish green bark and foliage that is
dull dark green above and silvery white
beneath. In habit somewhat similar to
the Lombardy Poplar. A great favorite
with landscape gardeners. 8-10 ft.,

recommended for planting along ave-
nues. Makes rapid growth. Leaves
bright pale green, lighter beneath.
8-10 ft., $1 each, $10 per doz., $75
per 100.

P. suaveolens (P. balsamifera suaveo-

by Frank N. Meyer. A remarkable
small-leaved Chinese Poplar of very
pyramidal habit, somewhat similar to
the Lombardy Poplar in manner of
growth, but even more effective than
that variety. Thrives in a fairly moist,
sandy soil. 7—9 ft., $1 each, $9 per doz.

PrunilS (Flowering Plum, Cherry, Peach, and Almond). While not
all authorities agree as to the botanical names of the Flowering Peach and
Almond, some believing that they should be termed species of Amygdalus, we
are giving them the nomenclature preferred by the “Standard Cyclopedia of
Horticulture,” which groups these flowering fruit trees and shrubs under the
generic name of Prunus. The species described below are charming, both on
account of their habit of growth and for the profuse bloom that almost hides
the limbs from view. They should be a part of every planting scheme.

Prunus avium plena. Double-flowering
Cherry. A medium-sized tree, produc-
ing its clusters of double, white flowers
in May with such freedom that the
branches are completely hidden. $2.50.

P. cerasifera Pissardii (P. cerasifera
atropurpurea). Pissard’s Purple-leaved
Plum. Small, compact-growing orna-
mental trees that will prove effective
as a part of any planting scheme. The
foliage is dark crimson, changing to
purple as it matures, retaining that
color until late in November. 50 cts.
each, $5 per doz.

P. communis flore-pleno (P. japonica;
Amygdalus communis flore-pleno).

shrub, with graceful, slender branches
that are literally covered with the
double rosy flowers in early summer.
75 cts. each, $7.50 per doz.

P. Persica plena. Double-flowering Peach.
An ordinary Peach tree in bloom is a
thing of beauty, but the Double-flower-
ing Peach is such a vision of loveliness
that we venture the assertion that it is
not equaled by anything else that
blooms at the same time. You will be
amazed at the profusion of its bloom.
$1 each, $10 per doz.

P. subhirtella penauia (P. pendula). Jap-
anese Weeping Rose-flowered Cherry.
Small tree, with drooping, crooked

ers that crowd the branches to their
very tips. One of the handsomest ot
the early-flowering trees. $3 each.

Ptelea trifoliata. Hop Tree. Small, round-headed tree, grown as an ornamental
because of the contrast afforded by the handsome, dark green foliage and the light
green, broadly winged fruits. When bruised, both foliage and fruit emit a strong,
pungent odor resembling that of hops — hence the name, Hop Tree. Easily grown,
and makes an interesting specimen for the lawn. 50 cts. each, $4 per doz.

PyrUS ioensis plena. Bechtel’s Double-flowering Crab. All the Flowering Crabs are
fine specimens of ornamental trees and shrubs, but this variety is the finest of the
lot, forming a low, bushy tree that is sturdy, hardy, and blooms young. The flowers,
wherein lies the tree’s chief beauty, are double, of a delicate pink color, and delight-
fully fragrant; produced early in spring in such profusion that, at a distance, the
tree seems literally covered with them $1.25 each, $12 per doz.

P. Halliana Parkmanii (P. floribunda Parkmanii). Parkman’s Double-flowering Crab.
A Japanese compact-growing dwarf, with dark green foliage, resplendent in early
spring with its long-stemmed, semi-double, rose-colored blooms that last a long
time as cut-flowers. Fine for lawns. $1.25 each, $12 per doz.

“A giant bouquet of thousands of flowers” — and those
flowers of Magnolia Soulangeana, 3 to 5 inches across, rosy pink
to pure white, and delightfully fragrant. Truly magnificent.

A mere glimpse of some Double-flowering Crab blossoms.
Think of a whole tree lavishly bedecked with such flowers !

feet, forming a broad, open head when
given sufficient room to spread; bark light
gray, slightly and irregularly fissured, the
thin scales thus formed readily flaking off;

A rapid-growing, straight-trunked, effective tree is
this American Linden, or Tilia americana

Ulmus americana. American or White Elm. One
of the choicest avenue trees available, growing 50
to 120 feet high, and forming majestic vase-like
specimens — an unmistakable characteristic of this
tree. In winter, the gracefully arching branches in-
dicate the symmetrical outline; in summer, those
same branches are densely clothed to the tips with
the dark green leaves. 8-10 ft., $2 each, $20 per
doz., $100 per 100; 10-12 ft., $2.50 each, $25 per

$2.50 each, $25 per doz.

Salix (Willow) . It is doubtful whether there is any other tree that grows as readily
as does the Willow. Take a cutting, stick it into moist ground, and ten years later
that twig will be doing its bit holding the soil together with its interlacing roots, fur-
nishing cool shade for hot days, and enlivening even the winter landscape with the
colorful bark peculiar to certain of the species.

on older trunks becoming fissured, these furrows becoming deeper and wider as the tree
ages; the yellowish white flowers appear about June, in drooping clusters of five to twenty
blossoms, are fragrant, rich in nectar, and much in favor with bees. 8-10 ft., $2 ea., $20 per doz.
T. vulgaris. Common or European Linden. Usually smaller -growing than the American
variety, but sturdy and provides dense shade; the leaves are deep green above, silvery
beneath, the slightest breeze stirring them and showing the white lining of the foliage.
The fragrance of the flowers and their honey-producing properties are the same as in
T. americana. 8-10 ft., $2.50 each, $25 per doz.

Deciduous Shrubs About the Home

Along the roadway, along the pathway, along the house foundation, as borders, for massing — one might mention a large number of
special places where Deciduous Shrubs will supply a well-defined need in a planting scheme. Wherever the place may be, however, a
wise selection from the list which follows will make possible flowering shrubs around the home or scattered over the estate from very
early spring to late summer; and the ornamental season is prolonged by the subsequent white or brightly colored berries and the hand-
some vari-colored leaves that form the characteristic autumnal garb of certain of the genera.

All Shrubs are well established, two and three years old, and of a
size to give immediate effect

Buddleia Davidii magnifica. The Chinese Buddleias, of which this is one variety, were
recently introduced to the United States by E. H. Wilson, and are rapidly winning favor
among planters because of the beautiful clusters or panicles of small, fragrant flowers. This
variety has fragrant, rose-purple flowers, with orange eye, in dense, drooping panicles,
coming into bloom about the middle of August. 2-3 ft.

B. Davidii Veitchiana. Robust and erect-growing at first, but later arches gracefully,
bending under the weight of the large, densely flowered, mauve-colored clusters; begins

This illustration gives some idea of the
beauty of the flowers of D. scabra plena, the
Double Pink Deutzia.

ComUS (Dogwood). Hardy, ornamental shrubs that have importance in landscape work
because of the handsome foliage, the earliness and attractiveness of the flowers, the conspicu-
ous berries, and the brightly colored bark of certain of the species. They are frankly careless
about whether they grow in sunlight or shadow. The name “Dogwood” had its origin in the
tale that a decoction of the bark was once used in England to clean up mangy dogs.

Cornus florida. White Dogwood. The familiar
native variety that pleases humans with its
attractive white flowers in early spring and
invites the birds with its bright red edible ber-
ries in autumn. For more complete description
and prices, see page 17.

C. mas. Cornelian Cherry. A handsome, large,
dense-growing shrub, with foliage of graceful
shape and pleasing dark green color; bright
yellow flowers, borne in great profusion in
early spring, give way to oblong berries the
size of small olives, which in autumn ripen to
a bright scarlet.

is similar thereto in every particular except that
the foliage is charmingly variegated. 50 cts.
each, $5 per doz.

Deutzia. Ornamental shrubs that are grown because of their profusion of showy white or
blush flowers in spring or early summer. A thinning out of the old wood soon after the flower-
ing season will be of advantage, but this should be done with caution, for the greatest bloom is
obtained from plants that have had a minimum of pruning. Very effective for borders of shrub-
beries. Prefer a well-drained soil.

Deutzia gracilis. Dwarf Deutzia. Slender, low-
growing shrub, with branches usually arching
and having bright green leaves which are

Hedges for Marking Boundaries, Etc.

Time was when boundary lines were indicated by unsightly wood, wire, or iron fences: the paint wore off; the iron rusted. Nowa-
days, however, boundaries of living green may be had that offer either seclusion or mere ornamentation, depending on the plants used
and the energy with which the shears are applied: low hedges of California privet or towering ones of Hemlock; those that have quiet
tones of foliage as their only point of attractiveness or those with showy flowers and brilliantly colored berries — surely one’s fancy may
have full play in choosing material for living boundaries or screens. The plants which we consider best adapted for these purposes
are listed below. The figures following the names indicate the pages of this Catalogue where descriptions and prices may be found.

Make Rose-Growing Your Hobby

“When business problems vex or household cares annoy, steal away to your Rose-garden and putter around your
favorites for an hour or so. There is a charm about them that soon makes you smile at the erstwhile annoyances
and sends you back to office or home duties with a lighter step and a clearer, keener mind.” — Author unknown.

of it? You can do it, and by selecting your Roses from the following lists it is possible to have a garden abloom throughout the sea-
son— Roses in beds, along the walks, on trellises, or pergolas, or over the garden wall. Put part of your recreation hours into caring for
them, ministering to their needs, and combating their enemies. The result in sturdy plant-growth and richness and profuseness of bloom
will be seemingly phenomenal. And my ! what a feeling of satisfaction will be yours when your friends pause to admire the beauty and

of the varieties listed are grown on their own roots.

these classes are perpetual bloomers, having beautiful shades of color, long-pointed buds,

PUZZLE— FIND THIS MAN’S HOBBY. Mr. Charles A. Olson, of Chicago, under date of
October 10, 1917, wrote us about some Roses. And this is what he said: “I bought quite a few Rose
bushes from you last spring, and I was so thoroughly satisfied with what you sent that I am enclosing
you an order for 275 bushes [applause from us] for this fall’s planting. Your Radiance Rose is, in my
opinion, the grandest Rose of today — wonderful are all the buds and blooms, and persons passing by
come into my garden to admire it. To bloom in an open garden, as it does, surpasses the fondest hopes
and ambitions of any Rose-grower. I am most delighted with this beautiful Rose.” And, quite natu-
rally, we are delighted to hear that he is. His pleasurable experience with our Roses may also be yours.

Creating Landscape Harmony

NYONE can dig holes and plant trees; likewise, anyone can take spoonfuls of medicine. If the latter hap-
pens to be the wrong kind and taken in wrong proportions, comfort and physical harmony are disturbed.
If trees and plants are put into the ground at random, without a preconceived idea as to final effects,
there will be a disturbing of landscape harmony that will become more serious as the planting grows.

Where planting is to be done, it is the part of wisdom to procure expert suggestions as to plans
and as to kinds of trees or plants to be used, for a knowledge of their habits, preferences, and appear-
ances is absolutely essential in the preparation of a harmonious planting plan. Certain plants grow tall and
spirelike, others short and bushy; some prefer moist soil, others dry; some are radiant masses of bloom in spring,
others flaming groups of crimson foliage in autumn; some are hardy and withstand very low temperatures,- others
freeze very easily. Just which are which in these various categories and what ones are to be combined to secure the
greatest effectiveness are matters that may profitably be left to the landscape architect to determine. All that
special knowledge is his ; he can draw up plans for home grounds, vast estates, or parks, and choose such trees and
plants as will create a landscape picture which, though it may not be possible to view as a whole at one time, will
be found as pleasing to the eye and as replete with harmony as the smaller-scale work of the artist or of the sculptor.

Our Special Service Saves You Time, Money and Disappointment

After years of close personal contact with our customers, we come more and more to feel that here is our oppor-
tunity to help you. Primarily we are nurserymen, and are interested in the distribution of trees and plants of all
kinds; but, for the convenience and assistance of our customers, we now maintain a service department, and if you
have just built a new house or are planning the rearrangement of your grounds, or wish an effective grouping on any
part of your grounds, you should get in touch with this department, for it includes one of the foremost landscape
architects in the country as well as orchard and planting experts. Through it we can undertake the planning, the
arrangement, and the actual planting itself, without trouble or worry on your part, of any site whatever, be it an
estate or a modest home.

Let our Landscape Department solve your planting problems for you. The money that you would otherwise have
to give to a landscape architect may then be devoted entirely to the purchase of the finest kind of growing orna-
mentals without any part of it being diverted as architect’s fees.

Let us get in touch with you today. We are anxious to come and talk it over with you, not through a salesman,
as we do not employ them, but some member of the firm personally. We have found this to be the only way to
most effectively cooperate with our customers.

Write us and we will arrange an appointment to suit your convenience. Once the outline of the work is agreed on,
we will do the rest.
