ALL of us know that there will be a revival of business
this spring. We also know that the producers and
distributors of the necessities of life — the basic trades
— will reap the first benefits. Those of us who deal in the
commodities which make for dignified and gracious living
after our basic needs are supplied must wait a few months
longer. Our turn will come, and soon, but in the mean'
time we must watch our step.

For a few months longer prices of nursery stock must be

Dwarf and Spreading Evergreens

Specially Suitable for Edging and Low Foundation Planting.
Juniperus chinensis Pfitzeriana (Pfitzer s Juniper). This lovely, sil-

inches.

J. communis depressa (Prostrate Juniper). Makes a dense mat of beautiful, feathery evergreen foliage. Golden
tipped in the spring. 15T8 inches.

sends up sprays of lovely, feathery foliage about 18 inches high.
15-18 inches.

Pinus montana mughus (Mugho Pine). A lovely dwarf evergreen.
The new growth is very straight and upright and resembles a
myriad of little candles attached to the plant. 12-15 inches.

the Order is Filled

kept down. There are two ways of accomplishing this; the
first being to cut the quality of our plants, and the second to
reduce the amount of the so'called individual service which
usually accompanies the filling of each order. While this
service is pleasant when we can afford to pay for it, obvious-
ly it adds nothing whatever to the value of the plants. The
Elliott Nursery Co. will not cut its quality. It can, however,
cut out the frills and to such of its customers as will help
it to do this, it offers very substantial price reductions.

Dogwood

(Cornus florida)

IF this lovely tree had nothing to offer for our
enjoyment besides its great spread of glorb

still could not do without it. This, however, is
not its only virtue. In the fall while its leaves
turn flaming red, the Dogwood spreads for
our pleasure its great crop of beautiful, scar'
let berries.

Three Lovely Trees

Pin Oak.

Norway Maple

(Acer platanoides)

The most popular and the
most widely planted tree in cul¬
tivation. Develops into a tall,
round-headed tree, the foliage of
which is so very dense that the
sunlight seldom penetrates
through it.

6 to 8 ft. high.

$1.60 each;

3 for $4.50

Sal ix Salamoni

(Salamoni Willow)

This is the fastest growing tree hardy in northern
latitudes. Planted in identical conditions it will grow
faster even than the Carolina Poplar.

Most fast growing trees are trashy, being short lived and
brittle with a tendency to go to pieces even before they have
made their full development. Worse
than this, many of them seem to delight
in playing host to all sorts of despicable
insect pests and malignant plant diseases.
Few have any beauty.

The Salamoni Willow is first of all a
handsome tree with a life cycle of from
fifty to seventy years. In the forty odd
years we have known it, it has never
developed any bad habits, remaining a
graceful and beautiful object until the
end.

MmaammmBm&sBaEi&a

6 to 8 ft. high.

75c each;

3 for $2.00

Pin Oak

(Quercus palustris)

Like all the Oaks, the Pin Oak is a tree of great
dignity. While it develops a very symmetrical
form, it never becomes harsh and awkward, al¬
ways remaining light and graceful without being
frivolous. Its leaves are deep¬
ly cut. Given liberal planting
it will grow almost as fast as
many of the cheap, shoddy,
short-lived trees which the
uninformed are so often per¬
suaded to piant.

6 to 8 ft. high.
$1.60 each;

3 for $4.50

These trees cannot be sent by mail.

The Salamoni Willow.

This sale is for cash only — No accounts opened at these prices

Improved English Hybrids. Range in color from
very light blue to very dark blue, overlaid irreg'
ularly with tonqg of pink and lavender, rose, and
lilac. Black spots on pistil and anthers at center
of flower. Many blossoms show white secondary
petals of white spots at base of major petals.
A wonderful wealth of color variation in the
English Hybrids.

Fine Mixed English Hybrids. $2.50 per doz.; $7.50
per 50; $15.00 per 100.

English Hybrids, Extra Selected Varieties. 50c each;
$5.00 per doz.

Belladonna. Uniform light sky'blue. The most uni'
versally admired and desired of the solid color
varieties. $2.50 per doz.; $7.50 per 50; $15.00
per 100.

Bellamosa (The Improved Formosum). For solid
dark blue color, unequalled among Delphiniums
— positively the best. $2.50 per doz.; $7.50 per
50; $15.00 per 100.

Delphiniums may be ordered on open account.

If wanted by parcel post, add 15c for each six
plants.

■WIIUMMIIIM

Tall English Delphiniums

BLOOMING all summer, coming
up year after year, sending aloft
successive shafts of incredible color to
a height of five, six, eight feet. It is
doubtful if any other plant so superb
as Delphinium ever graced a garden.

Few people are aware of the per¬
fection to which this ancient flower
has been brought by modern culture,
how easily it can be planted and
grown, and how lasting a delight the
gardener secures who plants Del¬
phinium. If everyone knew, tall,
hardy Delphiniums would be more in
evidence everywhere.

We offer specially selected plants
grown from seeds of famous named
varieties. Will grow anywhere but do
best in rich garden soil. Every imag¬
inable tint and shade of blue, laven¬
der, and purple. We promise you’ll
find positive joy in their extraor¬
dinary bloom.

SPECIAL

For those who prefer Poppies in

UT REMEMBER very well the first time I saw an
Oriental Poppy. I was a boy then, and it ex¬
cited me wonderfully, and I thought it the most
remarkable flower in the world; and now, after fifty
years have gone by and I have seen all the known
flowers of the world, I am still of the opinion that
it is mighty fine; one of the most striking and effec¬
tive perennials in cultivation.” Our founder, Mr. J.
Wilkinson Elliott, said this fifteen years ago and it
is still true. One who has not seen the blazing
beauty of the Oriental Poppies has not yet seen a
garden.

We grow the six finest varieties in cultivation.
They are:

Bracteata. Enormous, blazing red blooms.

Grand Mogul. Bright red. Excellent habit.

Mrs. Perry. Bright orange-apricot, shaded pink.

Princess Ena. Small, tulip-like flowers of orange-
salmon.

Royal Scarlet. Profuse bloomer; medium
size; rich scarlet.

Silverblick. Salmon, with blue
blotches.

The regular price is 25c
at the nursery.

Bearded IRIS

BARGAIN OFFER

A GARDENER and his assistant leisurely wandering
over the nurseries finding individual plants and
fastening individual labels thereto — how this eats up
money! Two years ago when we all had money it didn’t
matter much, and a year from now when we all have
it again, it will matter not at all. This year, however, if
you will help us cut costs, you can buy fine Iris at a price
that you will never get again.

This spring we will pack Special Iris Collections, using
our regular production. The plants are growing here in
Evans City and they will be dug fresh the day they are
sent to you. If you must have names you may order
them from our catalog, paying from 20c to 40c a plant
for them. You can have exactly the same plants, how-
ever, by ordering collections as follows:

Rock Plants

SPECIAL effects are de-
sired in a rockery and
these plants will produce
these effects. Special soil
conditions are also present
and these plants will thrive
under these conditions.

Strictly speaking, how-
ever, there is no such thing
as a rock plant, a plant which
must be planted in a rockery
and in no other place. While
these plants are specially de-
sirable in a rock garden, they
may also be used in the per-
ennial borders or in the
flower garden.

Amur River Privet

Absolutely the finest of all the Priv'
ets for smaller properties where there
is not room for the Regel’s Privet. In
addition to being absolutely hardy, it
is superior in every -respect to the Cali¬
fornia Privet.

£0rQ0,rl Hardy
Offer

Hedge Plants

Any dub nurseryman can propagate
California Privet and most of them do
because it is easy and cheap. However,
it is not so easy and cheap for the cus-
tomer for the reason that California Privet
is not reliably hardy and should not be
used in the North. There are other privets
which are not only more beautiful than
the California Privet but also perfectly
hardy and easier to grow, though, of
course, it does take skill to propagate them.
This year there will be no excuse for
planting the cheap, inferior California
Privet since we are going to make the
price right on the two good ones.

RegePs Privet

Incomparably the finest of the Privets
where one has room for it and perfectly
hardy. It is at its best when it can be
allowed to grow at least A/i feet tall and
is not sheared too closely. Use it on the
larger properties.

Amur River Privet.
