HORTICULTURHi

thoroughly convinced me of the un- 

 usual chances of blooming some of the 

 sorts offered every year. All told, 

 about a half-dozen will repay any care. 

 Would class about this way: Lilium 

 candidum and speciosum album tor 

 white, roeeuni and rubrum for colored 

 and auratum for spotted; of course in- 

 cluding (igrinum, single and double, as 

 iionclads; the last two cannot be beat- 

 en for hardiness. Of some sorts like 

 pardalinum, umbellatum or Parryii, the 

 chances are one in two or worse; the 

 commercial florist will get no returns 

 worth mentioning out of the other 

 sorts offered. 



The following is a list of hardy pei- 

 einiials most useful for cut-flowers. 

 There are a few other sorts that might 

 be mentioned, but these listed will give 

 best results: 



Achillea the Pearl, Asclepias, Aster 

 hardy, late; Bellis, Chrysanthemum, 

 both summer and late sorts; Clematis 

 paniculata and recta; Convallaria, 

 Aquilegia. Gaillardia, Coreopsis, Gyp- 

 sophila, Helianthus. Heliopsis, Iberis, 

 Iris German and Kaempferi; Lilium, 

 Lychnis, Paeony, Phlox hardy: Pyreth- 

 eum, Rudbeckia, Spirea, Solidago, Wall- 

 flowe--. Valerian, etc. 



With those above, recommend the 

 following for massing and bedding, 

 also for specimen clumps: 



Alyssum, Anlhericum in variety, 

 Aquilegia, Anemone, Artemesia in va- 

 riety. Astilbe, Bocconia in variety, Bol- 

 tonia, Caryopteris, Campanula, Cen- 

 taurea. Clematis, Delphinium, Diaii- 

 thus, Dictamus in variety, Dielytr.i, 

 Digitalis, Funkia. Hemerocallis in va- 

 rietv. Hspatica, Hollyhock in varie.y, 

 Hypericum, Iris, Lobelia. Linum, Pent- 

 stemon. Plumbago, Primula, Salvia, 

 Santolina, Saxifraga, Sedum, Spirae.i, 

 Tritoma, Vinca, Viola and Yucca.
