SALVIA " BONFIRE 



Pyrethrum. 



The aureum is the well known " Golden Feather " so much used in 

 ribbon borders, bedding, etc. Seed should be sown early in order to 

 get nice plants fit to set out in May. The hybridum sorts are hardy 

 perennials with handsome aster-like flowers, and very useful for 

 cutting.
