Aquilegia — Continued. 



Glandulosa. (No. 3 of cut-) — The finest and 

 handsomest of all the Columbines, a rare and 

 beautiful species. These are wonderfully ef- 

 fective in grace and beauty with their im- 

 mense long-spurred flowers of the richest blue 

 imaginable, surmounted by five short petals 

 of pure white, delicately marked with ultra- 

 marine and hanging gracefully on tall stems: 

 splendid for the border or for cutting, and 

 they succeed in any ordinary garden soil. 

 Late spring. 



Vulgaris alba. Giant White Columbine. (]\T . 

 4 of cut.) (IV2 to 2 feet.) — An effective and 

 elegant flower, pure white and hung on long 

 stems from May to July. Desirable for cut- 

 ting. 



Strong field plants, each, 15c; doz. $1.50; 

 100, $8.00 

 A set — one each of the six sorts — 75c 



ANEMONE JAPONICA. 



Japanese Wind Flower- 



Anemone laponica elegantissima. 



Among the most beautiful and valuable 

 Hardy Perennials; highly ornamental in fo- 

 liage and blooming continuously and freely 

 from August until frost. The flowers are 

 large, exceedingly chaste and pure in color, 

 on long stems and wonderfully graceful; sur- 

 passing even in refined beauty the cosmos; 

 unsurpassed for cutting. Although the Jap- 

 anese Anemones are hardy, it is well to give 

 them slight protection in winter; for the rea- 

 son they are sometimes damaged by cold in 

 severe winters when unprotected. 



Alba, (18 inches). Flowers large, single, 

 pure white with yellow stamens; very beauti- 

 ful and chaste. 



Elegantissima. (18 inches). A superb va- 

 riety of unusual vigor and great blooming 

 propensity. The flowers are large, made up 

 of two distinct sets of petals and are of a most 



beautiful satiny-rose color, of charming ap- 

 pearance. (See illustration). 



Lady Ardilaun, (18 inches.) — Even finer 

 than Alba: the flowers being large, more num- 

 erous, pure white with broad overlapping pet- 

 als and extra tall stiff stems. A most profuse 

 bloomer and grand acquisition. 



Queen Charlotte, (2 feet.)— Splendid flower 

 of extra large size, often four inches across; 

 semidouble and a beautiful pink color. It 

 blooms earlier than the others and should 

 be planted with them to precede them. 



Rosea superba. (18 inches.)— Valuable espe- 

 cially for its fine form and beautiful, delicate, 

 light rose color. 



Whirlwind. (18 inches.) — A semi-double 

 form of Alba and even more free-flowering. 

 Flowers, two to three inches across, having 

 several rows of pure white petals and verv 

 lasting. 



Strong plants in pots, each 12c; doz. $1 25- 

 100, $8.00. 



( Set — one of each — 50c.) 



Field clumps, each, 20c; doz. $2.00- 100, 

 $12.00. 



ANTHEMIS. Chamomile. 



Anthemis tinctoria, Golden Marguerite. (2 

 feet.) — A bushy plant with dark green finely 

 cut foliage and clear, golden-yellow flowers, 

 borne in such profusion as to envelope the 

 plant in a golden blanket from June until 

 frost; always conspicuous ar>d attractive. Suc- 

 ceeds in poorest soil. Good for cutting. 



Anthemis Kelwayi. — In this the flowers are 

 larger than the preceding, it's parent; bright 



lemon-yellow and are produced in the same 

 lavish profusion. (See illustration.) 

 Each 10c; doz. $1.00; 100, $6.00. 



Northampton, Co., Va., Oct. 2 2, 1906. 

 I made some purchases from you some time 

 since that were very satisfactory. I want to 

 buy 50 to 100 Hardy Perennials and some 

 fine Shrubs within a few weeks. Please quote 

 me your very lowest price on say 100 field 

 grown plants that will bloom next year. May 

 also want a set of Peonias.
