HENRY A. DREER, PHILADELPHIA -FLOWER SEEDS 



Aquilegia (Columbine) 



No hardy plant grown from seed is more easily handled than the 

 Columbine. 



Seed may be sown in the open ground early in spring, and will, in some 

 cases, bloom the same season; or they may be planted in August or 

 September, and will come up early in spring and make vigorous plants, 

 which will bloom abundantly during late spring and early summer. 



Columbines should be planted wherever their presence will serve 

 to lighten up a too stiff and formal planting, for no other plant has so airy 

 a grace as the Columbine, is more generous of its blooms, or more effec- 

 tively adapted for cut flowers.
