From PETER HEMDER 



MEW YOIRE, 



PENTSTEMON 



These should be grown as half-hardy annuals, they are then a valuable addition to bed 

 and borders in summer. The seedlings produce an abundance of scarlet and pink 

 shades with white markings which are very attractive. Pentstemons are best 

 grown in beds, or in groups of not less than twelve plants in borders, where they 



ill give a brilliant color effect. If sown indoors during February or March, 

 and planted out in genial weather there will be a profusion of richly colored 

 flowers the following summer Height, 2 feet. 



1285 "Sensation." A Giant Gloxina-flowered type; though perennial 

 these bloom early the first season from spring-sown seed. The graceful 

 spikes, about 2 feet high, are bedecked with flowers, two inches across 

 from Julv until frost. The colors and markings are gorgeously varied 

 from pink to scarlet and maroon, all beautifully blotched and veined 

 with other colors; a large white throat further enlivens and inten- 

 sifies the surrounding colors. They deserve a prominent place in 



every garden Pkt. 10c. 



32S2 Rocky Mountain Pentstemon. (P. Cyananthus.) A lovely 

 and showy species and as hardy as a rock. Compact spikes of 



lovely azure-blue flowers Pkt. 15c.
