 garden. 



Mixed Varieties, 60c per doz. ; S4.00 per 100.

Charming little half-trailing or bushy plants particularly adapted for pot culture and hanging 

 baskets, the foliage alone is very attractive and when in flower they are exceedingly pretty. 



Bermuda Buttercup. This is one of the finest winter-flowering plants for pot culture. It is a 

 strong, luxuriant grower, and the great profusion of bloom produced in uninterrupted abund- 

 ance for weeks is astonishing. The flowers are of the purest bright buttercup yellow. 40c 

 per doz.; S3.00 per 100.

 exquisite flowers well above the foliage. Extremely free-flowering from November till June.

 the house during the winter or if grown in frames in the spring.

 height 15 to 18 inches. (See illustration.) Price, per doz., 80c, per 100. S6.00. 



Scilla (Blue Bells) 



Most beautiful hardy spring bulbs, producing in profusion masses of exquisite rich blue flowers 

 almost before the snow has disappeared. If grown in masses, their flowers fairly carpet the ground. 

 Grown in pots, they may be had in bloom from Christmas until April.

Snowdrops 



In the early spring months there is nothing more beautiful than a sheet of the snowy, graceful 

 blossoms of the Snowdrop. Beds and effects of surpassing beauty may be arranged with Snow- 

 drops in the centre edged with bright blue 

 Scilla Siberica, or Chionodoxias, or by inter- 

 mingling them. Used as a permanent edging, 

 and in masses on the edges of lawns, nestling 

 in the grass, they look charming. Snowdrops 

 are easily flowered in pots during the winter.

 100; S30.00 per 1000.

Winter Aconite 



(Er ant his Hyemalis) 



Early in spring the golden blossoms of the 

 Winter Aconite appear resting on an emerald- 

 green cushion of leaves. The foliage remains 

 long after the flowers, making the plant 

 especially valuable in moist situations such as 

 under trees where the Winter Aconite thrives. 

 3 to 8 inches high. 35c per doz.; $2.75 per 100; 

 S25.00 per 1000.
