ALPINE FLOWERS FOR GARDENS 



[PART II. 



the double Catchfly, is a fine variety, with 

 more rocket-like blooms. They are excel- 

 lent plants for the rougher parts of rock- 

 work, and as border-plants on dry soils. 

 Any of the kinds are worthy of being 



naturalised on dryish slopes, or open 

 banks, on which they seem to form the 

 largest, healthiest, and most enduring 

 tufts. Easily propagated by seed or 

 division.
