 "bloom, throwing up numerous broad flower heads on tall slen- 

 der, graceful stems ; flowers round, bright cherry-red. Foli- 

 age dark green and lace-like- very ornamental. Its splendid 

 heads of bloom, and the great profusion of them, render it one 

 of the finest of perennials.

BLACKBERRY 

 LILY. 



Pardanthus Sinensis. 



An interesting - plant of the 

 Iris family. Broad, pale-gTeen 

 sword-shaped leaves, arrang-ed 

 in a fan-like manner: hand- 

 some star-shaped flowers, rich 

 orange thickly spotted with 

 brown and purple. The seed 

 pods open, exposing- clusters of 

 fruit which closely resemble 

 blackberries and which remain 

 on the plant during- the fall 

 and winter. Very interesting

 ceeding- evervwhere. 



Of all flowering - plants 

 these are the most in- 

 teresting- and charm- 

 ing-. Their ease of cul- 

 ture, hardiness, pro- 

 fusion and long- season 

 of bloom, great beauty 

 of both flower and foli- 

 ag-e, unite to render 

 them the most satis- 

 factory of plants. They 

 succeed admirably up- 

 on almost every "kind 

 of soil and continue in 

 their beauty indefi- 

 nitely, growing- better 

 from year to year. The 

 herbaceous border 

 should be an indispen- 

 sable feature of every 

 g-arden. I have a very 

 fine stock, but . offer 

 here a brief selection of 

 the choicest sorts. All 

 vrill be sent by mail, if 

 desired, at each and
