Shrubs are as much a part of the well balanced garden as the lawn or flower borders. !Many of them are as decorative as any ornamental foliage plant, while others are highl3' useful as cut flowers, and a well-arranged planting presents an attractive appearance throughout the entire year. Shrubs have many uses; such as a di\-iding line between the flower and the vegetable garden, or between the lawn and uncultivated land bej'ond; as a background to a flower border; for hiding an unsightly building, fence or foundation, or they may be planted in a mixed shrubberj' border, in which case those of shorty dense growth should be planted along the front of the border, graduating to the tall-growing kinds at the back. Leaflet on the culture and care of Shrubs sent free on request. Abelia Chinensis Grandiflora. A choice small Shrub of graceful habit, pro- ducing through the entire summer and fall white tinted lilac heather-like flowers in such abundance as to completely cover the plant. Plants from 4-inch pots, 50 cts. each. Althea {Rose of Sharon). The Altheas are among the most valuable of our tall, hardy Shrubs on account of their late season of blooming, which is from August to October, a period when but few Shrubs are in flower. We offer the following choice sorts: — Alba plena. Double white, crimson centre. — Duchesse de Brabant. Double dark red. — Foliis Variegatis. Leaves variegated green and white, — Jeanne d'Arc. Double pure white. — Lady Stanley
