Dreer. dreersgardenbook1931dree Year: Double Flowering Peach Pyracantha (Crataegus) Coccinea Lalandi Pyracantha (Crataegus) Coccinea Lalandi (Firethorn or Evergreen Thorn) There is no other fruiting evergreen Shrub that is so attractive throughout the year as this fiery Thorn and which will succeed in any fairly sunny position, developing into a shapely plant 6 or more feet high; it may be planted either in connection with other Shrubs or as a single specimen or may be trained with wonderful effect against a wall. Its large trusses of white flowers are followed in summer by an abundance of brilliant orange-scarlet berries, which, remaining on the plants throughout the winter produce a gorgeous effect. Strong pot-grown plants, 15 to 18 inches high, $ each. PyrUS (Cydonia or Japan Quince) Japonicus. A very showy and popular Shrub, of medium height which blooms profusely in early spring; flowers dazzling scarlet. Makes an excellent hedge. 60 cts. each. RllUS (Sumac) Cotinus (Purple Mist or Smoke Tree). It has been almost im- possible for the past ten years to procure this old favorite Shrub but we again have a limited supply of strong bushy plants about 18 inches high. It is one of the attractive subjects either planted as a single specimen or in the mixed border, forming a large Shrub which in mid-summer is covered with large clusters of feathered flowers giving the appearance of a cloud of smoke or mist. Typhina Laciniata (Cut-leaved Staghorn Sumac). The leaves are beautifully cut like a delicate Fern and in fall assume the most brilliant colors, this combined with its showy clusters of crimson fruit makes it a most valuable subject either as a single specimen or for mass planting. Price. Strong plants of either of above, 75 cts. each. We will supply all Shrubs priced at 60 cts. each for $ per doz.; $ per 100. Shrubs cannot be sent by mail.
