 themselves in almost any garden soil, but respond quickly to liberal treatment. 



Belladonna Improved. The freest and most comtinuous 

 blooming of all, never being out of flower from the end of June 

 until cut down by hard frost. The clear turquoise blue of its 

 flowers is not equalled for delicacy and beauty by any other 

 flower. 



Bellamosum. This is a dark blue form of the popular light blue 

 Belladonna, with which it is identical in habit of growth, free- 



dom of bloom and other good qualities, but with intensely rich, 



deep blue flowers. 

 Chinense. A very pretty dwarf species, with fine feathery 



foliage and intense gentian-blue flowers in open panicles. 

 — Album. A pure white form of the above. 

 Formosum. The old favorite dark blue with white centre; 3 to 



4 feet high. Very vigorous, and one of the best. 



Price. Any of the above, 25 cts. each; $2.50 per doz.; $15.00 per 100.

Convallaria (Lily of the Valley) 



Majalis. This is often starved and neglected and relegated to some poor, out-of- 

 the-way corner; but this popular and fragrant subject, like most other plants,

 decayed manure in fall or early spring it will show the effect by increased size, 

 number and vigor of the flowers. The stock we offer is strong clumps, especially 

 suited for outdoor planting. 60 cts. each; $6.00 per doz.; $45.00 per 100.
