FOR PERMANENTLY EDGING WALKS OR FLOWER BEDS 



In this class are different varieties of Polyanthas, such as the Baby 

 Rambler types, the small-flowered or Standard Polyanthas and the 

 large-flowering kinds, such as the famous, constant-blooming Clothilde 

 Soupert, Marie Pavie and Snowstorm. All are suitable for bordering 

 paths where a continuous show of bloom is desired, but for edging 

 flower-beds the bright-blooming, dwarf-growing Baby Rambler types 

 (shown in this column) are the most desirable. We grow them in quan- 

 tity to meet the large demand there is for them — and will be glad to 

 quote special prices by the dozen or hundred as desired.
