GILIA 
Capitata (Blue Thimble Flower). 
2 ft. Beautiful bushy plant of erect 
habit with fine feathery foliage cov- 
ered all summer with rich lavender- 
blue flowers, 1 inch across, much 
like Scabiosa. Makes a good cut 
flower as the blooms last well in 
water. May also be used as ever- 
lasting, as the flowers retain their 
beautiful color when dried.

GIANT SHIRLEY FOXGLOVES 
Digitalis—This magnificent strain raised by the late Rev. W. Wilks, to whom we are also indebted 
for the Shirley Poppies, is unquestionably the greatest improvement ever made in Foxgloves. 
The very vigorous plants attain a height of 5 to 7 feet, with spikes of bloom 4 feet in length, 
closely set with flowers of unusual size, ranging in color from the purest white to dark rose, 
handsomely spotted and blotched with crimson, maroon and chocolate. ‘This is certain to super- 
sede all other strains of Foxgloves. Seeds sown this spring will produce plants that will make a 
glorious show next season. Pkt., 15c; 2 pkts, 25c.

Hardy Gloxinia 
VARIABILIS HYBRIDS 
A new perennial, which, if planted early in 
the spring, can be handled as an annual. It is 
quite valuable for filling and border work and 
produces a good showing of medium-sized, at- 
tractive trumpet-shaped flowers the entire sum- 
mer. ‘The colors range from yellow and white 
to deep pink, with many shades of pink in the 
collection. It is also good as a filler in bouquet 
work and is a very prolific grower, being easily 
own from seed. This mixture of hybrids 
nearvillea is a result of several years of pains- 
taking hybridizing by our plant breeder and 
we consider it a valuable addition to the per- 
ennial border. Pke., 15c.
