BULBS for WILD GAKDENS and NATURAL PLANTATIONS. 



"TTHE illustration on the upper half of the opposite page shows an effect produced by Narcissus Poeticus, the cheapest 

 of the daffodils, planted for natural effect. The picture below it represents our native giant Wood-Lily, Trillium 



grandijlorum, one of the best and hardiest plants for forming natural groups for flowering in shady woodlands. 



Among hardy herbaceous plants the asclepias, asters, boltonias, campanulas, columbines, dictamnus, epilobium, echinops, 



day-lilies, lobelias, lythrum, monarda, evening-primroses, rudbeckias, stokesia, thermopsis, are a few of the many available. 



We shall be pleased to furnish a larger list with prices upon application.
