This handsome hardy shrub throws its flower-buds early and if these are frozen and in this condition the sun's rays fall upon them they are more or less injured, therefore it is advisable to select position where the influence of the sun's rays is not felt till after 10 or 11 o'clock and not exposed too much to heavy winds, there- fore a position amongst shrubs or under a west or north wall may secure the greatest amount of success. The plant is a greedy feeder and should have abundance of horse or cow dung given to it annually. The plant is grafted on the single purple stock and care should be taken to rub off all growth from the stock and remove all suckers from time to time.
