Armenia, Taeirt (A. elongata formosa—also known as A. cephalo- 
tis). 1 ft. Makes a dense low tuft of leaves and close solitary heads of 
pink flowers. Give full sun and any good soil not too wet. Propagate 
by sowing seeds as soon as ripe, for the roots do not divide well. 
Armenia (Armeria vulgaris, A. elongata). Is often used as an edging 
instead of Box, as the seeds come up with much certainty, and it makes 
a close thick border. This variety is propagated by division of root 
also. 
ArmeriA. Plantain-leaved (A. plantaginea). 9 in. Bright rose- 
colored flowers in close heads on stems a foot or less high. Propagate 
by dividing roots into separate pieces and plant the pieces as you would 
cuttings in sandy soil under glass until well rooted. 
Bowman’s Root (Gillenia trifoliata). 18 in. A bushy plant with 
red stems and pink or white flowers resembling Spirea. Foliage 
divided. Give partial shade, any soil. Plant with Lilies or Japanese 
Iris. Propagate by seed or division. 
CALYSTEGIA, JAPANESE Rose (C. pubescens pl. ft.). Known also as 
Convolvulus Japonica and Calystegia Californicus. 3-4 ft. A twining 
vine with halbert-shaped leaves and beautiful pale rose-colored flowers 
resembling small roses. It has a bad habit of spreading from the root, 
and should be planted where it will not encroach on other plants; or it 
should have a tub to itself. Any portion of the slender white root buried 
will grow. 
CatcHriy. Autumn (Silene Shajia). 6in. A low variety of C. bear- 
ing pink flowers, the stem becoming gradually covered with blossoms. 
Give any good soil and propagate by division of root, seeds or cuttings. 
Also annual varieties in pink; see Catchfly, Pink An., July. 
CLEMATIS (C. coccinea, var. Duchess of Albany, and C. Jackmanni, 
var. Mme. Bacon Veillard). Two beautiful varieties of this showy 
flower. The Clematis is a gross feeder and needs manure both above 
and below ground and liquid manure during the blooming season. If 
raised from seed, save until spring and sow in sandy soil under glass; 
plant out and they will soon flower. Propagated also by cuttings, layer- 
ing and by grafting scions on healthy roots. To aid layers in rooting, 
scrape the bark slightly before covering with earth. 
ConvOLVULUS JAPONICA, see Calystegia. 
CRUCIANELLA, Crosswort (C. Stylosa). 1 ft. An attractive low 
border plant which throws out numerous spreading stems bearing 
whorled leaves and terminal heads of small delicately-formed pink
