 may the foregoing suggestion act to the

 larger ideals and higher aims!

PERENNIALS THAT PAY. 



[Continued from a previous pafte.] 



In extremely cold latitudes they can 

 be wintered in coldframes. Ivory's 

 Spotted and gloxiniseflora are good 

 strains of D. purpurea to sow. A large 

 vase of foxgloves makes a handsome 

 appearance. 



Gaillardia. 



The well known and gaudy blanket 

 flower, Gaillardia grandiflora, with its 

 showy red and yellow flowers, is popu- 

 lar commercially. It comes quickly and 

 freely from seed, blooms over a long 

 period and is one of the best perennials 

 for cutting. 



Gypsophila. 



No list of perennials for cutting 

 would be complete without the hardy 

 baby's breath, Gypsophila paniculata. 

 Its light, airy, pure white flowers are 

 fine for cutting and of much value in 

 design work and bouquets. The single 

 form of paniculata comes freely from 

 seed. The newer and more double form, 

 G. paniculata flore-pleno, comes partly 

 true from seed and can be propagated by 

 careful root division. The flowers of 

 the double form sell much better than 

 the singles in the market. Give it well 



drained land and it will not die out in 

 winter. 



Helenium. 



The sneezewort family comprises 

 some striking and showy plants for the 

 hardy garden and all are fine for cut 

 flower purposes. Probably the golden 

 yellow, Helenium autumnale superbum, 

 is the most widely known and popular. 



but other excellent sorts are H. River- 

 ton Gem, deep yellow suffused with red; 

 Hoopesii, bright orange yellow, and 

 pumilum magnificum, golden yellow. 

 All are of easy culture and are prop- 

 agated readily from seeds and divisions. 



Helianthus. 



In late summer and fall, when the 

 hardy sunflower? are at their best, there
