hardy border; of easiest culture; perfectly hardy. They will 



establish themselves in almost any garden soil, but respond quickly 



to liberal treatment.

 The clear turciuoise-blue of its flowers is unequalled for delicacy 

 and beauty.

 blue Belladonna, with which it is identical in habit of growth, 

 freedom of bloom and other good qualities, but with intensely 

 rich, deep blue flowers. 



Chinense. A very pretty dwarf species, with fine feathery 

 foliage and intense gentian-blue flowers in open panicles.

 habit, with large flowers.
