Campanula Pyramidalis. 



Campanula Pyramidalis. 



The Chimney Uell-FJower. 



This beautiful bell-flower deserves a place in every gar- 

 den. It is of strong, robust growth and is at its best in 

 mid-summer, when it throws up numerous spikes, (fre- 

 quently 15 to 20) four to five feet high, which are crowded 

 with its large salver-like blue flowers. 



In Europe this plant is grown quite extensively in pots 

 and is frequently seen in the show-windows of the Florist's 

 stores, for which purpose it is admirably adapted, it pro- 

 ducing a beautiful attractive display. 



We offer strong one-year-old field-grown plants, 15 cents 

 each ; $1.50 per dozen ; $10.00 per 100. 



Ceanothus Gloire de Plantieres. 



Very few of the Ceanothus have found their way into 

 general cultivation, owing principally to the fact that most 

 of the varieties heretofore introduced have been very 

 tender. In this new variety is combined almost entire 

 hardiness ; a slight protection around the roots, which 

 may be omitted if planted in a sheltered position, be- 

 ing sufficient to carry them over successfully, while 

 the flowers are of large size and of a most desirable 

 shade of lavender-blue. The shrub-like plant grows 

 about three feet high and begins to bear its graceful 

 and airy heads of flowers early in June, continuing through 

 the greater part of the summer. 20 cts. each ; $2.25 per 

 dozen. 



Two New Chrysanthemum 

 Maximum. 



These summer flowering Chrysanthemums, or as they are 

 commonly known, Moon-penny or Daisy Marguerites, are 

 now pretty well known and are becoming general favorites 

 and deservedly so. They are free growing perennials, not 

 exceeding 2.J feet in height, forming large bushes which are 

 covered with bloom the entire summer ; the flowers are large, 

 pure white and of great substance, lasting a week or more 

 when cut ; they continue in bloom all summer and are per- 

 fectly hardy, and must be classed among the most useful of 

 our perennials. 

 Triumph. Flowers 4 inches in diameter, with broad, 



heavy overlapping petals. 

 Filiformis. With long narrow thread-like petals, a most 



effective, large, white flower. 



15 cents each ; $1.50 per dozen ; $12.00 per 100. 



Ceanothus Gloire de Plantieres. 



Coreopsis Lanceolata. 



A hardy perennial that should find its way into every 

 garden. The flowers are a clear bright golden yellow and 

 certain to attract attentiom. It flowers profusely, is per- 

 fectly hardy and thrives in almost any situation. One of 

 the best of the perennials, and invaluable for summer cut 

 flowers. Strong one year old clumps, $1.00 per doz. ; $6.00 

 per 100. 2J inch pots, 60 cts. per dozen ; $4.00 per 100. 



New Hybrid Delphiniums. 



The two varieties here offered are the handsomest of this 

 class of plants tbat have yet come to our notice, and deserve 

 a position in every garden ; they are perfectly hardy and 

 flower continuously during the summer and fall months, 

 producing spikes 15 to 18 inches long. 

 Frau Emma Metzger. A most beautiful variety, the 

 peculiar coloring of which it is almost impossible to de- 

 scribe. The flowers, which are of large size and double, 

 are of a glossy silvery rose in the centre which gradually 

 passes to a light sky-blue as it approaches the edges, and 

 white eye, a combination of shadings which must be seen 

 to be fully appreciated. 

 Wilkie Collins. Kich royal purple shading to blue, 

 double flowers nearly two inches in diameter. 

 25 cents each ; $2.50 per dozen. 



Coreopsis Lanceolata.
