(Japanese Judas.) After the long winter, we are prone to give even more than their share of admiration to the first Spring flowers: but one that deserves all the encomiums which we can shower upon it is the Japanese Judas. Coming among the very first of the Spring blossoms, the flowers are so abundant, and of such a delicate pink color, that the attention which they attract is, indeed, well-deserved. Aside from the beauty of the Japanese Judas iu the Spring, it is valuable because of its ornamental appearance throughout the Summer, the heart-shaped leaves, a glowing green in color, remaining on until late in the Fall. Where there is only room for a single specimen plant, the Japanese Judas should, above all others, be given the preference. It can also be grouped with other shrubs to ad- vantage, or planted in a mass with good effect. (For prices see page ii.). CBPHALANTHUS. Cephalanthus occidentaiis.
