and the place should be marked lest it be disturbed by accident. It 
must have a deep well-drained soil, full sun and moisture during the 
blooming season, and much space. The roots are large, brittle and 
difficult to pack, and as the seeds take a year to germinate and several 
years to develop to the point of blooming, plants are very costly. If 
you are young and enthusiastic try raising it from the seed. After 
several years experiment I have four young plants out of nineteen, hav- 
ing lost several vintages through the brown cutworm. In four years 
more I may see bloom. 
FORGET-ME-NOT (Myosotis alpestris, var. roseus). 1 ft. A lovely pale 
pink variety with small yellow eye, fragrant in the evening. For cul- 
ture, see Forget-me-not, White Per., May. 
Ir1s. German (Iris Germanica, var. Queen of the May). A lilac 
pink variety, see White Per., May. 
Lycunis. Alpine, see Campion. Alpine. 
Lycunts. Early, Red L. (L. dioica, var. rosea). 2 ft. (A form of 
L. diurna.) This is a flower native to some parts of New England, but 
under cultivation is one of my most desirable plants, making a spread- 
ing bushy growth and the whole plant is covered with pale rose-pink 
flowers an inch across borne in branching panicles. I have three va- 
rieties of this; one, with broad green leaves and red woolly calyx and 
rather small reddish pink flowers, is the least desirable; another with 
narrower bright green leaves, somewhat rough, makes a splendid show- 
ing; another with darker smooth green leaves and reddish stem is not 
so good, though all are worth planting. Give a rich deep soil, full sun, 
and water during the flowering season. By free cutting the bloom is 
prolonged through the entire summer. 
Moss-Pink, CREEPING Pink (Phlox sublaia). 4 in. A very desir- 
able border or bedding plant literally covered with rose-pink flow- 
ers. For description and culture, see Phlox, Creeping, White Per., 
May. 
PHLOX SUBLATA. Creeping Phlox, see Moss-Pink. 
Poppy. Alpine (Papaver alpinum, var. Pink). 1 ft. A pink variety 
blooming from May to August. For culture, see Poppy. A Yellow 
Per., May. 
Turi (Tulipa suaveolens, var. Rose Luisante and Rose A plati [single]) 
Couronne des Roses (Double) represent a few pink varieties. For cul- 
ture, see Tulip, White Per., May.
