 sets fruit all the summer long and is a gorgeous sight with 

 its emerald-green foliage, delicate lavender flowers, and 

 bright scarlet berries. It has this one peculiarity ; bearing 

 at the same time flowers, green berries and ripe berries ; 

 very few plants do this. Fine plants to bloom and fruit 

 this year, 20 cents each. 



Hardy BORDER PLANTS and BULBS 



Hardy Begonia Evansiana 



Think of it I A hardy Begonia, one that stood twenty de- 

 grees below zero last winter, and came up and bloomed all 

 summer. Another thing in its favor, it requires shade to grow 

 in, at least partial shade. So many persons write me asking for 

 plants suitable for shady places. Well, Begonia Evansiana 

 fills the bill. It is a wonderful beautiful Begonia, having 

 pendulous flowers in large racemes almost covering the entire 

 plant. Color a sparkling pink that is simply entrancing. Ev- 

 erybody will want a hardy Begonia. It is also fine for pot cul- 

 ture. Price for plants or bulbs to bloom this summer, 25 cents.

Burbank's Shasta Daisies 



SHASTA DAISIES — (New.) The Shasta Daisy is one of the 

 most marvelous productions in the flower line that has ever 

 been brought to the notice of floriculturists. It is the first 

 of a new type which has been obtained by hybridization and 

 rigid selection through a series of years. Its first qualifi- 

 cation is extreme hardiness. Second, it is perennial, bloom- 

 ing better and more abundantly each season. Third, it is 

 not particular as to soil. Fourth, it blooms for several 

 months. Fifth, the flowers are extremely large and graceful, 

 averaging about four inches in diameter, with petals of the 

 purest glistening whiteness, which are borne on single, long, 

 stiff, wiry stems. Sixth, the blooms when cut remain per- 

 fectly fresh and in good condition for two weeks or more. 

 .No other flower can compare with it in usefulness. Price, 

 10 cents, three for 25 cents. 



The New Hardy Ever-Blooming Carnation 



"CRIMSON KING" 



Everybody has asked for a Carnation that would live out in 

 the garden during the winter. I have pleasure in offering this 

 new plant, as it will fill the bill. It is absolutely hardy, stand- 

 ing^the Canadian winters in the yard. It blooms all summer 

 long, never a day that you cannot cut blossoms. The color is a 

 rich crimson,' the fragrance is delicious. Price for plants to 

 bloom this summer, 25 cents each.
