COLUMBINE (Aquilegia) [hP-2H ft.] No garden can afford 

 to be without a liberal assortment of these delicately grace- 

 ful plants which bloom so early in the season. From a clump 

 of light green leaves at the base the branching stems pro- 

 ject, carrying their long-spurred blossoms. Many of these 

 have star-shaped rings of outer petals surrounding their 

 central tubes. The plants look frail, but they are strong 

 and hardy and will thrive in almost every situation, pre- 

 ferring partial shade and considerable moisture. As cut 

 flowers they are artistic when the branches are arranged 

 in natural form. 



Long Spurred Superb single sorts unsurpassed for beauty 

 and size of flower and with remarkably long spurs.
