Helenium Grandicephalum 

 Striatum. 



A most interesting old hardy plant that appears to 

 have been lost from cultivation for a long time, has only 

 recently been re-introduced, and is one of our most desir- 

 able perennial plants. It is of strong, robust, erect habit, 

 growing from 3 to 4 feet high, with flowers about 1* inches 

 in diameter, in large branching heads, of a deep orange 

 color, irregularly striped and blotched with crimson. 

 A most novel and unique combination and distribution of 

 colors. Occasionally during extremely hot weather, the 

 red stripes disappear, the flowers coming a pure yellow. 

 10 cts. each ; $1.00 per doz.; $8.00 per 100. 



Hypericum Moserianum. 



One of the very best herbaceous plants of recent intro- 

 duction. The habit of the plant is free and graceful ; it 

 produces long, slender, much-branched stems, leafy to the 

 base and all drooping toward the ends, apparently from the 

 weight of the flowers and buds, although the flowers face 

 so that none of their beauty is lost. It is marvelously free 

 flowering, of large size, measuring from 2 to 2\ inches in 

 diameter, in color a rich golden yellow, which is rendered 

 still more effective by the numerous yellow stamens and 

 crimson anthers, and blooms continuously the entire season. 

 It is perfectly hardy, forming a bush about 3 feet high. 

 Strong one year plants $1.00 per doz.; $6.00 per 100. 



Hypericum Tricolor. 



A pretty variegated form of the above, 20 cts. each ; 

 $2.00 per dozen.
