Tritoma 
(Red-hot Poker, Flame Flower, or Torch Lily) 
Pfitzeri (The Everblooming Flame Flower). The early, free and con- 
tinuous blooming qualities of this variety have made it one of the 
great bedding plants. Succeeds in any ordinary garden soil, but 
responds quickly to liberal treatment; hardy if given protection, 
but the most satisfactory method of wintering is to bury the roots 
in sand in a cool cellar. In bloom from August to October, with 
spikes 3 to 4 feet high, and heads of bloom of a rich orange-scarlet, 
producing a grand effect either planted singly in the border or in 
masses. 30 cts. each; $2.50 per doz.; $18.00 per 100.

and remarkably free flowering, blooming continuously from June

color combination. $1.00 each. ,
