AQUILEGIA (Columbine)
As a cut flower the Long Spurred Aquilegias are the daintiest of our
outdoor grown flowers.
They come in blues and whites and yellows and shades of pink and
rose in strains reasonably true.
Practically all the various shades and colors are in the Coerulea
Hybrids. They remain in bloom for a long season and are vigorous and

These are the small-flowered Chrysanthemums of the old-fashioned
gardens, and bloom in October and November after almost all flowers
are gone. They are showy in the garden, and effective as cut flowers
and, being perfectly hardy and of easiest culture, can be successfully

DELPHINIUMS (Tall English)
English Delphiniums are the most beautiful hardy plants in
cultivation, for they have such an immense variety of beauty and
increases in size, in beauty, and often in quantity, year after
year. Delphiniums may net be the most beautiful hardy plants, but
they are among the most beautiful, and nothing can be more
satisfactory. Some varieties growing 8 feet high in rich soil. They
have immense spikes of most beautiful flowers of every imaginable
shade of blue, and their season is long, in fact, they will bloom from
spring till fall.
The culture of Delphiniums is exceedingly simple. They thrive
in almost any position, and may be planted at any time of the year,
provided that in summer the plants are not too forward, and that they
be well watered if the weather be dry. The soil may be a rich, friable
loam, which suits them finely; but any soil, even hot and sandy, if well
watered and manured will give excellent results. Placed in lines, as
a background to a border, or in groups of, say, three plants at intervals,
the effect of the Delphinium is exceedingly fine. They are grand grown
in masses of large groups and may be associated with shrubs to great
advantage. A succession of flowers may be expected from spring to
early autumn, especially if the spikes which have done flowering early
be cut down to the ground; fresh growth will then be produced which
will give blossom. Watering in summer will increase size of spike and
flower. Top-dressing is greatly recommended on certain soils, instead
of the bare surface of the ground being left exposed to the sun. Some
of the neater dwarf alpine and other hardy plants my be utilized to
plant between and around Delphiniums. Coal ashes strewn over the
crowns will protect the plants from slugs through winter and spring.
Any garden soil suits the Delphiniums.

GAILLARDIAS (Improved)
We consider the Gaillardia one of the most desirable hardy plants
in cultivation, and our strain of these brilliant-flowered plants to be the
finest extant. Though such an ornamental addition to the herbaceous
border, the perennial Gaillardia is content with extremely simply treat-
ment. Dig the soil deeply and enrich with well-rotted manure. We
recommend the Gaillardia for bedding purposes as well as for borders.
Every one will have noticed how grandly Gaillardias have thriven
through the recent draught; they seem hardly to need water, but we
recommend watering liberally to insure the finest flowers. The gay
blossoms are obtainable in perpetual profusion from June to November,
and the greater the draught and scarcity of other flowers the more the
utility of the perennial Gaillardia is demonstrated. No more brilliant
and beautiful sight can be imagined than a large bed of Gaillardias,
with their .profusion of highly colored flowers of all shades. Some of
the varieties of our improved strain measure fully 5 inches in diameter.

HOLLYHOCKS
Painters choose single Hollyhocks as subjects for floral paintings
oftener than any other flower. We suppose the reason for this is that
artists have a keener appreciation of beauty than other people, and recog-
nize that the common, single Hollyhock, is one of the most stately, pic-
turesque and beautiful plants in the world. Nothing can be more effec-
tive than a large group or mass of single Hollyhocks, and once planted
they will literally take care of themselves, even if planted in the grass.
We know of patches that have not been cultivated or disturbed in any
way for twenty years. We are determined to have single Hollyhocks. We
collected seed from old-fashioned gardens and had thousands of plants
grown for our customers. Some people think double Hollyhocks are
more beautiful than single. They are mistaken, although the doubles
are beautiful, but inclined to be top-heavy. Hollyhocks planted in the
fall will bloom the following summer.

GERMAN IRIS
The Iris is one of the finest, if not the finest, of our hardy plants.
Not particular as to soil or location, but asking only that the sun shine
on it, it throws up spikes of bloom that are marvelous in their delicacy
of structure and the colorings which are exquisitely dainty are wonderful
in their blendings and variety.
They are very effective planted in groups and if used for borders
are particularly desirable in that the foliage remains fresh and upright
after the blossom stalks are removed.
Planted in late August or early September they flower very freely
the first season.
For use as cut flowers they are rapidly gaining in popularity with
Florists.

RARE LILY FROM CHINA
LILIUM REGALE or MYRIOPHYLLUM
(The Regal Lily'. Mr. E. H. Wilson, the famous plant collector, col-
lected the original bulbs in North-Western China. He considers this the
finest of all Lillies. It is absolutely hardy, and is excellent for forcing.
It has been predicted that this will become the Easter Lily of the future,
and being so hardy, may be grown at home. The flowers are white,
slightly suffused with pink, with a beautiful shade of canary-yellow at
the center, and extending part way up the trumpet. It is delightfully
perfumed, reminding one of the Jasmine, and lacking the heavy, oppres-

PHLOXES— HARDY PERENNIAL
The beauty and usefulness of these grand border plants give to them
a deservedly first place among hardy plans. For cutting, their large
trusses go a long way in floral decoration. In color they range from
pure white to the richest crimsons and purple, and from soft rose and
salmon to bright coral-red, all having a delicate fragrance. Perennial
Phloxes succeed in almost any soil enriched with manure, but are much
benefited by a mulching of decomposed manure in spring, and in hot
weather an occasional soaking of water. If the first spikes of bloom are
removed as soon as over, they will produce a second supply of flowers,
continuing the display until late in autumn. These later blooms are
often finer than the first.

PYRETHRUMS
The Pyrethrums are so simply and easily cultivated that they may
be recommended to all who possess a garden. They are perfectly hardy
and absolutely invaluable for cut flowers through the summer and au-
tumn months. The flowers are bright and elegantly borne on long stems;
most convenient for decoration. In form the double varieties are some-
what aster- or chrysanthemum-like, and as their chief beauty is in the
months of May and June, they may well be designated Spring Chrysan-
themums, possessing the advantage over the Chrysanthemums of being
able to withstand the severest winter without protection. The single-
flowered varieties are variable colored marguerites and possess a range
of color and hardiness that marguerites might envy in vain. Nothing
can surpass the Pyrethrum for profusion of flowers, and the blossoms are
not injured by storm or sun. Their position should be in the border or
in beds. The plants may, with advantage, be cut down after June, which
will keep up a greater succession of bloom through the autumn. Pyre-
thrums grow freely in any ordinary garden soil; a good rich loam suits
them, perhaps, best and in order to secure size, brilliancy and number
of flowers, plenty of ordinary well-rotted manure may be added to well-
trenched, well-drained soil, and plenty of water may be given when they
are in bud in the dry summer weather. A mulching may be applied in
dry localities with advantage. The older varieties have been greatly im-
proved upon during the past ten years, and the refined shape and brilliant
or soft shades of the newer sorts have caused the Pyrethrum to become
deservedly popular. We offer a splendid lot of plants of the choicest
varieties grown from famous strains.

GLADIOLI
One of Our Leading Specialties
Constant improvement in the Gladioli has greatly increased interest
in them and they are being planted in greater numbers each season.
For cutting purposes, the bulbs may be planted in rows 12 to 18 inches
apart, setting the bulbs 3 to 4 inches apart and planting to a depth of
6 inches. The flowering spike should be cut just as soon as the lower
flowers open; the remaining buds will open if kept in fresh water and
the open flowers removed as they fade. A little of the stem should be
removed when the water is being changed. Treated thus, a spike will
last over a week.
For garden planting, they perhaps appear to best advantage in
groups or masses and are best used in conjunction with some annual
or bedding subject where they can be timed to flower in late summer
when garden color is most desired. Groups can also be used effectively
in the perennial border. A more continuous effect can be had by mak-
ing successive plantings, beginning as soon as the ground can be worked
in early spring and planting at intervals until June.
The bulbs, which increase from year to year, can be carried over
winter in a cellar that; is kept above a freezing temperature, much as
potatoes are stored.

HARDY ORNAMENTAL SHRUBS
The collection of shrubs given below is not as large as one will
find in some catalogues, but we have endeavored to list only those shrubs
which can be used in and around Cleveland for home planting. All the
stock offered is grown on our own nursery and we know it to be true
to name, clean and healthy. We must earnestly ask our customers to
mail their orders as early as they can, because careful investigation of
the nursery business shows that there is a tremendous shortage of good
shrubs, plants and bulbs. Place your orders in the fall and have stock
delivered the following spring, if you cannot plant it at once.
ALTHAEA
Each
The Altheas (Rose of Sharon) bloom in August
and September, showing many rich shades of all
colors. They are very hardy, easily cultivated, and
will bloom until their growth is cut short by frost.
Grown in standard form, they make good specimens,
8 to 10 feet high, resembling small flowering trees;
planted thickly, they are popular for flowering
he.dges, as they will endure considerable pruning.
This should be given in winter
Jeanne D’Arc. Best of the white, double Altheas. Hardy
and free-flowering 60.
Totus Allbus. Pure white, single flowers of fine size
and great beauty 60.
Amplissima, Beautiful pink, free-flowering 60

and brright green, compound foliage. Makes
a small tree in time, especially attractive
on rocky slopes. Greenish white flowers in long
umbels ,60 6.00
BERBERIS— BARBERRY
Thunbergl. (Thunberg’s Barberry). Inimitably neat
and dense in growth, barely 3 feet high under the
best conditions, yet quite graceful because of its
drooping branches. The yellow flowers are followed
by scarlet fruits borne in dense 'profusion on the
long stems and clinging through mose of the win-
ter; the leaves color to scarlet and gold in autumn. .25 2.50

BUDDLEIA (“Butterfly Bush/’ “Summer Lilac”)
Each
One of the most admired and sought-after shrubs.
Of quick bushy growth, bloom-spikes appear in
July, the shrub dies down nearly to the ground dur-
ing winter, perfume and flower shape of thle Sprnig
Lilacs
Magnifica. This variety is selected from several good
sorts as being the hardiest for all sections. Flower
spikes 10 inches in length by 3 in diameter are not
unusual. Color deep violet-rose, with a pro-
nounced orange center 50
CORYLUS— FILBERT, HAZEL
Avellane, Atropurpnrea. (Purple-leaved Filbert). The
Hazels are sometimes used as hedges and are val-
uable for this purpose. In early spring the long,
drooping catkins are very beautiful, and in fall the
shrubs bear large quantities of delicious nuts. This
variety is particularly valuable for group effects,
the large, purple leaves holding their color well. It
grows to a height of 10 to 12 feet 60
CYDONIA JAPONICA (Japan Quince)
Very early in spring this shrub is completely cov-
ered with dazzling scarlet flowers; followed by
small, quince-shaped fruits which are quite fra-
grant. Growth bushy with protecting thorns 40
CALYCANTHUS (Carolina Allspice; Sweet Shrub)
Floridns. A unique shrub, growing rapidly upright
to 6 feet, clothing its straight, strong, reddish
brown shoots with large, glossy leaves, from the
axils of which spring odd, double, spicily fragrant
flowers of chocolate-red. This is the old-fashioned
“shrub” that the children tie in the corner of their
handkerchiefs. One of the earliest to bloom in the
spring 50
CORNUS — DOGWOOD
The Dogwoods, one of tall growth and
bears large flowers. The shrubby Dogwoods, in
many cases, have very pretty flowers, but are cal-
ued for their fruits, leaf-variegations and bright-
colored bark. If planted in lines or groups against
evergreens, the bark is very showy in winter, es-
pecially if pruned yearly to make the growth of
young shoots thicker.
Serioea. (Silky Dogwood). Conditions make this
shrub vary in height from 3 to 10 feet. Has pur-
plish branches and dense cymes of greenish white
flowers and black fruits. Blooms in early summer. .40
Stolonifera. (Red Osier Corner. A medium-sized,

flowers, followed by white berries .60

CLETHRA Each Doz.
An i folia* (Sweet Pepper Bush). A little shrub,
fragrant in September, when covered with long,
showy wands of white flowers. It is valuable for
the front of the border as it grows only 3 to 5 feet
tall and is very sturdy and compact. Its beautiful
flowers make a splendid show in the border at a
time when white flowers are becoming scarce .... .40 4.00
DEUTZIA
No other shrub in the whole list will yield
better returns for a minimum of care tnan the
Deutzias. They vary in height and habit, but all
have dainty bellor tassel-shaped flowers borne
thickly in wreaths along their branches in June.
The taller sorts are useful for specimens, groups,
and the background of shrubberies; the dwarf er
for borders or for planting near the house.
Pride of Rochester. A showy, early, and large-flowering
sort, that blooms in May before the others. Grows
6 to 8 feet tall. The white flowers are large and
double 40 4.00
Candidissima. The pure white double flowers in erect
panicles 2 to 4 inches long, are so perfect in shape
that they are frequently used as cut-flowers. The
bush is neat and shapely, growing 6 to 8 feet high,
and is a handsome addition to any planting 40 4.00
FORSYTHIA— GOLDEN BELL
These shrubs, growing 8 to 10 feet tall in
good soil, light up the garden with masses
of yellow, very early in spring, before the
leaves appear, and usually blooming with the cro-
cuses, which are frequently planted in front of
and beneath them. All are of strong growth, entire-
ly hardy, with curving branches that sometimes root
at their tips; stems and leaves retain their color
until late fall.
Intermedia. One of the most floriferous, with slen-
der, arching branches, and dark green, lustrous
leaves. It blooms so early that it is frequently
covered with its bright golden flowers while the
ground is covered with snow
Snspensa. Long, curving branches; used
for cover-

HYDRANGEA
Each
Doz.
Such a showy class of shrubs is naturally
well known and very generally planted. H. pan-
iculata and its varieties are quite hardy anywhere.
The more tender garden varieties need some pro-
tection in cold climates. The great flower-heads
last for a month or more in perfect condition.
Arborescens Grandiflora. A grand addition to the
summer-flowering shrubs ; dwarfing the show of
other sorts in July and August by the magnitude
and profusion of its flower-heads. The flowers are
similar to the ‘‘Snowball” and are so conspicuously
white that whether as specimens, as cut-flowers,
or in groupings, their presence is predominant .40
Panic ula ta Grandiflora. Severely pruned every Spring,
before the leaf buds open, will get to be very
dense. Wonderfully attractive when laden with
massive white plumes. Large beds, kept uniform
are extremely showy; first snowy white, then
v pink, then reddish bronze and green. August
till winter 40

HONEYSUCKLE, (Bush Lonicera)
The shrubby Honeysuckles have bright and pretty
fragrant flowers, followed by showy berries.
Tatrica. (Tartarian Honeysuckle). One of the best
species, 8 to 10 feet tall. Its pink flowers in late
spring contrast beautifully with its bright green
foliage, but its chief charm is its wealth or orange
or red berries which literally cover the plant in
summer and autumn. All the varieties are noted
for their bright berries 40
Bella Albida. A handsome new hybrid of strong grow'th.
Flowers white, in great fragrant clusters, followed
by attractive ropes of red berries, which remain
all summer .60

KERRIA JAPONICA (Japan Corchorus).
A handsome, green-leaved shrub, growing 4 feet.
Slender branches with a wealth of rich, yellow,
double flowers in June, and to some extent all
summer
Yariegata. The choicest of the dwarf growing shrubs.
The foliage is dense and profuse, so variegated
with white as to present a striking appearance. The
flowers are as large and yellow as on the taller
type, and appear at intervals all summer

LIGUSTRUM PRIVET Each
Besides being one of our best hedge plants,
the different species of the Privet form in-
teresting groups on the lawn. White flowers grow
in sprays, are fragrant, and followed by berries of
different colors.
Ibota. (Ibota Privet). A fine hardy border shrub,
spreading habit, growing 8 to 12 feet tall, curving
branches and leaves of grayish green. Pure white
flowers appear in June, to be followed later by
bluish black seeds, which persist until winter -25

drooping branches. The plant is dense and com-
pact, growing 6 to 10 feet in height, with longer
leaves than other varieties. Blooms in June and
July with panicles of white flowers .25
OTalifalium. (California Privet). A species that has
become the most popular of all hedge plants. Un-
trimmed it grows stiffly upright to 8 to 12 feet.
For groups and specimens it is equally pretty, and
its shining leaves give it value for porch and terrace
decoration. Can be sheared to any form. Flowers
in June, in dense, upright panicles .20
Amurense. (Amoor River Privet). The Chinese va-
riety, hardier than the others, growing 8 to 12 feet
high, with leaves, which persist almost through
the winter. Evergreen in the South 50

in June 50
RHUS
Aromatfea. (Fragrant Sumac). A short, branchy
shrub, from 2 to 4 feet tall, with striking foliage

stems. The red berries mature in June, and in
autumn the leaves color to brilliant scarlet, making
it very attractive
Typliina Laciniata. Grows to 30 feet, and, when
trained to tree form, very picturesque. Has deeply
serrate foliage. Best effects are had when the
branches are cut close to the ground, causing it to
send up strong shoots producing the largest leaves. 75

fragrant flowers in June and July, followed by large
clusters of fruit 60 6.00
Aurea. (Golden Elder). The golden yellow leaves of

Grows naturally 10 to 15 feet, but can be pruned
into a neat compact bush 60 6.00
SPIRAEA
All the Spireas bloom with a riotous extrav-

This family of shrubs is one of the most useful,
and is rarely omitted from any mixed group.

HARDY VINES
CLEMATIS Each
Of all the vines used either for shade or decora-
tion, none can compare with the Clematis. Panicu-
lata holds the lead both as a shade producer and
for its abundance of bloom. It is a rampant grower
in good soil, and the lateness of its bloom, coupled
with the exquiset perfume of its flowrers, makes it
one of the most desirable of all vines.
Pamculata, (Sweet-scented Japan Clematis). Rapid
growth, covering trellises and arbors with hand-
some, glossy foliage. The flowers are fragrant, pure
white, in immense sheets in September, wiien few
other vines are in bloom 30
ARISTOLOCHIA
Sipho. (Dutchman’s Pipe). A hardy vine of rapid
growth, with very large, heart-shaped leaves and
flowers, resembling pipe. Splendid for archways or
verandas, as it is a rapid grower and forms a dense
shade. A splendid vine for a sunny veranda 50
AMPELOPIS VEITCHI (Boston Ivy)
This is the finest hardy climbers we have for cov-
ering Avails, as it clings firmly to the smootthest
surface, covering closely. The color is a fresh
deep green in summer, changing to the brightest
shades of crimson and yellow in autumn 60
BIGNONIA RADICANS (Trumpet Flower)
A robust Avoody vine; orange scarlet, trupet shaped
floAvers. Will climb to great heights on trunks of
ttrees, and for every purpose is one of the most
ornamental, both as to foliage and fllowers, among
vines 40
KUDZU VINE.
Large foliage shade, growing 50 feet in one season
Flowers plentiful in August; rosy-purple, pea-
shaped 50
HONEYSUCKLE
Their vining qualities are all that can be desired,
but the fragrance of their floAvers makes their
strongest bid for favor.
Halleana. Color, an intermingling of Avhite and yel-
low; exteremely fragrant and most satisfactory. .40
WISTARIA
One of the handsomest vines for use on pergolas,
porches and trellises; attractive foliage and mag-
nificent, drooping clusters of pea-shaped flowers.

PLANT THIS FALL
This question is often asked: When is the best
time to plant, in fall or spring? The answer de-
pends upon what is to be planted, and the time the
question is asked. If asked in the summer, then
fall is the best time to plant all shrubs, and herba-
ceous plants of unquestioned hardiness, further-
more, the fall is a time of leisure and the weather
is more favorable and the soil is usually in better
condition to work than it is in spring, wet and cold
as it usually is. It must be remembered, however,
if the best results are wanted with herbaceous
plants, they should be planted early enough in the
fall to become established before freezing weather
sets in, otherwise they are apt to be thrown out of
the ground by frost. This can be prevented by a
mulcing of stable manure. As far as possible, we
would advise the planting of hardy plants, early in
October. Peonies and Iris especially give better
results when planted in the fall; shrubs may be
planted from the 15th of October until the ground
freezes. When anything is ordered that should
not be planted until spring, we do not ship until
then.
