DREER'S CHOICE HARDY SHRUBS NOTEâWe usually begin digging Shrubs about the middle of October, and planting may be continued successfully from then until the ground is frozen. Shrubs can only be sent by Freight or Express, at purchaser's expense. They are too heavy and large to be sent by mail. No charge for boxes, packing or delivery to express, freight or steamship lines in Philadelphia. 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 orna- mental foliage plant, while others are highly useful as cut flowers, and a well-arranged planting presents an attractive appearance throughout the entire year. The late autumn is the ideal time to plant Shrubs. The plants can usually be dug any time after the middle of October, and set out from then until the ground is frozen, which rarely happens before December in this latitude. When planted in fall they get the benefit of the early spring months in which to make roots and become established before hot weather sets in. Aralia (Hercule's Club or Devil's Walking Stick) Spinosa. A singular native tree-like Shrub, growing from 10 to 15 feet high, with ver>' prickly stems, pinnate leaves and immense panicles of white flowers in August, followed by black fruit, an odd tropical-looking plant. Strong plants, each. Aronia Arbutifolia (Retl Chokeberry) A pretty upright Shrub with an abundance of white flowers in April and May, its bright red fruits in fall carrying well into winter. 75 cts. each. New Red-Leaved Japanese Barberry (Berberis Thunbergi Atropurpurea) Similar in all respects to the green-leaved Japanese Bar- berry which is so popular for mixing in the shrubbery border, as single specimens, or for planting in clumps on the lawn, as well as for foundation plant
