VALERIANA (Garden Heliotrope) [hP-2 ft.] Dur- 

 ing the summer months when many plants are 

 likely to suffer from lack of moisture, Valeriana 

 remains in flower, — it is so vigorous and hardy. 

 Its silvery green foliage spreads considerably, 

 and its numerous stalks carry feathery clusters 

 of tiny sweet scented florets. Since it needs 

 little care, it is useful in spots like a rocky bank 

 that receive scant attention and yet should 

 have decoration.

VERBENA [tP] Do you remember a sunny bare 

 place that was an eye sore in the flower border 

 last summer? Or some other spot that would 

 have been improved by low growing plants 

 with a dash of color? You will make no mistake 

 by choosing Verbenas for such a need in your 

 next year's garden. , 



These ever popular dwarf creeping plants pro- 

 duce a garnish of somber, dark green foHage en- 

 livened by many fine clusters of star-shaped 

 blossoms with rounded lobed petals. The 

 colors are decidedly refreshing in their brilliancy. 



Though half hardy it should be used as an 

 annual and will flower from midsummer to 

 frost from seeds started early in the spring.

Viola Cornuta 



Verbena Hybrida, Choice Mixed 



Citriodora (Lemon Verbena) [6 in.] This unusual species, 

 botanically "Lippia Citriodora," is a low evergreen leaved 

 tender plant that may be grown outside during the warm 

 summer months. The sprays of light green leaves may be 

 combined in bouquets, but they are especially useful dried 

 for they retain their delightful fragrance and can be used 

 for making sachets Pkt. 15c 



VIOLA CORNUTA (Tufted Pansies) [hP-R-6 in] 



Those who do not know the Viola often mistake it 

 for a small flowered Pansy. It belongs to the same 

 great Violet family, but it is distinctly different. It 

 is very hardy, and for that reason it is one of the 

 best edging plants for the permanent border or rock 

 garden. Over neat tufts of foliage the dainty flowers 

 are gracefully poised on slender stems. Frequently 

 the petals of the blossoms do not overlap as they do 

 in many Pansies, and the spur or horn of the lower 

 petal is more pronounced. Violas are persistent 

 bloomers if the faded flowers are kept nipped off. 



White Ghstening white. Yellow Bright gold. 



Blue Perfection A fine light blue.
