Pkt. 



Gold Medal Hybrids — Eremurus or Hardy Foxtail Lilies are becoming known as among the most desirable an^ stately 

 plants for the hardy perennial border. The flowers in long terminal racemes are produced in early summer, when es- 

 tablished plants, rearing many-colored flower-stalks 6 to 10 feet above the ground, surmounted by spikes of flowers 

 sometimes 4 feet in length, aiford a most striking spectacle. They remain in bloom for a month. Hybridizing cover- 

 ing a period of 20 years has resulted in producing many new color forms, perfectly hardy and thriving best in full 

 sunshine and good, medium heavy soil. Once established will go on for years improving and increasing. The seedlings 

 when large enough should be planted where they can remain permanently undisturbed 25 



EVERLASTING FLOAVEatS. 



Can be sown outdoors during April and May. The Gomphrena should be sown in boxes in the house or in hot-beds, as it 

 sometimes does not germinate well in the open ground. When dried for winter bouquets, the flowers should be cut before 

 fully expanded. H. A.
