A PAIR OF EXTRA FINE HARDY PERENNIALS 
New Double-flowering Gypsophila ‘Bristol Fairy’’ 
(Illustrated in color on opposite page.) 
The well-known double-flowering Gypsophila Paniculata, when first introduced, was quite a sensational novelty, and is still one of 
the most valuable hardy garden plants, with its great panicles of white flowers so indispensable for cutting in July and August. 
In Bristol Fairy, we have a wonderful advance over the aforementioned sort, a plant not only of greater vigor, producing much 
larger panicles of flowers, in which the individual bloom also is considerably larger, and of purer white color, but it also possesses the 
advantage of flowering more or less continuously throughout the summer, new branches of bloom appearing after the first flush of flowers 
has passed, if these are cut away when through blooming. Strong Roots, 50 cts. each; $5.00 per doz. 
Salvia Pitcheri (Blue Meadow Sage) 
This species (illustrated in color on the opposite page), comes from the wilds of Colorado, and is one of the most attractive of our 
native plants. A true blue flower, with a long season of bloom, August, September and October, thriving in any situation and almost 
without care. The flowers of deepest indigo-blue are borne with the greatest profusion on long slender stalks 3 to 4 feet high and blooming 
at a time when blue flowers are not plentiful makes it a most noteworthy addition to any garden planting. This variety is extremely 
hardy and winters over in any part of the country without protection. 35 cts. each; $3.00 per doz.; $20.00 per 100.

Pyrethrum Hybridum 
This grand old-fashioned Hardy Perennial is easy to grow in any 
good garden soil where there is good drainage and full exposure 
to the sun. They prefer to be left undisturbed for two or three 
years and if given an annual top dressing of well-rotted manure, 
flower generously. Their main season of blooming is in June, but 
if the first crop of flower stems is removed as soon as finished, they 
will give a fair sprinkling of flowers during the summer and 
autumn months. The fine fern-like foliage of the plants is attrac- 
tive at all times.
