Incarvillea Delavayi. (See illustration on first cover page.) This comparatively new perennial from northern 

 China has been found har<ly in Newport, R I., and may prove so elsewhere in New England. We recommend, 

 however, a liberal mulching where left out during winter. The tubers may be lifted in autumn and stored in the 

 same manner as Dahlias and replanted in spring. The foliage resembles that of the Acanthus, while the blos- 

 soms appear like clusters of pink Gloxinias. It is extremely decorative and quite easily grown. Strong 

 Roots, each, .20; dozen, $2.00; too, $12.00.
