 est freedom for a long season. I have them in mixed

HYACINTHUS CANDICANS. 



Galtoxia Caxdicaxs. 



A showy species of Hyacinth, blooming in late sum- 

 mer and early autumn. The bulbs throw up strong 



stems, 2 to 3 feet high, which are surmounted with 

 pretty, bell-shaped, white flowers, in loose panicles. It 

 is sure to flower freely and is of special value for plant- 

 ing among Peonies, German Iris, etc., to supply flowers 

 after the season for these early bloomers has passed. 

 Hardy; the bulbs may be left in the ground over 

 winter. Large selected bulbs, each, 6c; doz., 60c; 100, 

 $3.00. 



LIATRIS. 



Blazing Star. 



GRACILIS — A newly introduced species. It flowers 

 late in the autumn, after almost all other hardy flowers 

 have disappeared, each bulb producing six or more 

 slender stems 6 to 8 feet tall which are densely clothed 

 for half their length with soft, feathery, light purple 

 or lilac flowers and present an effect that is almost 

 startling in beauty and blaze of color. 



PYCNOSTACHYA. Kansas Gay Feather. 4 to 5 

 feet). — Handsome and very showy. Pale purple flowers 

 on tall, round, dense spikes in August and September. 

 Prefers a dry soil. Very fine massed in shrubbery.
