 hardy spring bulbs, producing in profusion masses of exquisite 

 rich blue flowers almost before the snow has disappeared. If

SPIRAEA or ASTILBE 



jln garden culture these flower freely during the summer and 

 are perfectly hardy, but their great value is when grown in pots

 feathery panicles, and last a long time in bloom. {Ready for

Gladstone. An improvement over all other white-flowering 

 Spiraeas — and one of the most beautiful winter and spring

 plume-like trusses. Price of strong roots, 75c. each: $7.50 

 per doz. 

 Rubens. A new and very beautiful carmine-rose colored Spi- 

 raea having the same habit, large feathery' panicles and forc- 

 ing qualities of Gladstone, also hardy and thrives under 

 garden culture. 75c. each, $7.50 per doz. 



SNOWDROP 



In the early spring months there is nothing more beautiful 

 than a sheet of the snowy, graceful blossoms of the Snowdrop. 

 Beds and effects of surpassing beauty may be arranged with 

 Snowdrops in the centre edged with bright blue Chionodoxias, 

 or by intermingling them. In beds of Tulips and Hyacinths, 

 Snowdrops are very effective between the lines; they flower 

 while these bulbs are just moving the surface, and when the 

 flowers are over there remains an elegant groundwork of green 

 foliage. Used as a permanent edging, and in masses on the 

 edges of lawns, nestling in the grass, they look charming. 

 Snowdrops are easily flowered in pots during the winter. 

 Single Snowdrops. 60c. per doz.; $4.00 per 100, postpaid. 

 Double Snowdrops. 70c. per doz.; $5.00 per 100, postpaid. 

 Elwes' Giant Snowdrop. One of the finest of the genus, at 



least three times the size of the ordinary single Snowdrop; 



flowers slightly marked with green spots; fine for cutting. 



60c. per doz.; $4.50 per 100, postpaid. 



TRILLIUM GRANDIFLORUM 



American Wood Lily. Most beautiful American plants, per- 

 fectly hardy, growing and flowering profusely in partially 

 shaded nooks about the lawn, under trees, etc. The flowers 

 are large, of the finest white, changing in a few days to soft 

 rose. 12c. each; $1.25 per doz.; $9.00 per 100.
