ANTIRRHINUM (Snapdragon) [hA] Modern Snapdragons 

 are justly popular with almost all gardeners; they come in 

 such a wide range of colors from delicate pastels to vivid 

 hues, and they are adapted to so many situations in the 

 garden. The spikes are borne well above the dark foliage, 

 and each flower is amusingly like a lion's head with mouth 

 that opens and closes. The blooming season is long if the 

 spikes are nipped off as they fade. 



The seed may be sown in the fall or spring, but where 

 winters are severe, gardeners who want early flowers 

 should start the seed quite early under glass, transplanting 

 to a sunny situation as soon as the ground is warm.

 blooms. Because of their height they require staking.

 handsome and the Majestic strains bear blossoms equal in

ARABIS (Rock Cress) [hP-R-6 in.] One of the showiest and 



earliest of spring flowering plants. Its blanket of pure white 



flowers will brighten the edge of any border or a sunny spot 



in the rock garden. It is easy to grow and very hardy.

ARGTOTIS (African Daisy, blue eyed) [hA-2 ft] An orna- 

 ment in any garden is this sun loving plant from South 

 Africa. In bouquets the large flowers on their long stems 

 last well, and the buds open after they are cut. The petals 

 are white with light lilac backs; they radiate from a con- 

 trasting steel blue center ringed with yellow. 

 Grandis }^ oz. 35c; pkt. 10c 



ARISTOLOCHIA (Dutchman's Pipe) [hP-C-30 ft.] One of 

 our best climbing plants. Its light green but glossy heart- 

 shaped leaves overlap to form an excellent screen, and they 

 retain their color throughout the season. The brownish 

 pipe-shaped flowers are oddly interesting. The seed ger- 

 mmates very slowly. 

 Sipho Pkt. 10c 



ARMERIA (Thrift, Sea Pink) [hP-R-6 in.] A pretty border 

 or rock garden plant that does well even in rather poor 

 sandy soil. The grass-like foliage is bright green and grows 

 in a tuft. Above its base numerous stiff stems carry little 

 globes of rose-pink flowers which bloom intermittently for 

 a long season.

ASCLEPIAS(Butterfly Wild Flower) [hP-2ft.] Thisisamong 

 the most striking and colorful of our native perennials.

 graceful bouquets. The plant seems to prefer a well drained 

 soil in a sunny situation.
