LINARIA Flowers which resemble miniature Snapdragons end in 

 single elongated spins. 



Maroccana Mixed [hA-15 in.] An erect plant with finely cut foliage 

 and with blossoms clustered on upright spikes. The colors embrace 

 many shades of crimson, orange, and blue. Usually the lower lip is 

 white which accentuates the other colors. The plant is in flower 

 within two months from sowing; it is valuable for the border and for 

 cutting Vi oz. 45c; pkt. 10c 



■A-Fairy Bouquet Mixed [hA-10 in.] Much more compact than other 

 Maroccana strains. The neat little plants are excellent for edgings 

 and suitable for rock gardens. We particularly recommend this 

 variety Pkt. 10c 



LOBELIA Every one who has planted Lobelias in his garden knows 

 how effective they are. Varieties differ in color and habit, but all of 

 them bear dainty flowers somewhat like tiny butterflies in form. 

 The annuals because of their low growth and compactness of foliage 

 are invaluable for edgings and for use in rock gardens. They are 

 covered with flowers for a .ong season. 



■*-Celestial or True Blue [h.\-4 in.] The finest variety with green foliage. 

 The flowers are bright blue with tiny white throats. 



♦ Crystal Palace (Compacta) [h.\-4 in.] Plants with dark stems and 



leaves tinged with reddish brown. The flowers are deep blue.

 partly conceals the blossoms has surrounded this plant with a bit 

 of mystery The petals form a rosette with toothed edges, in the 

 center of which is a dome-shaped pistil with stamens crooked fan- 

 tastically above it and a wreath of mossy green fibers around it. 

 The plant will grow from seed sown in the open ground. Corn- 

 flower-blue flowers on long stems.

LUNARIA (Honesty, St. Peter's Penny, Money Plant) [hB-2i/^ ft.] 

 Oval seed pods, translucent and silvery, have given this unusual 

 plant its whimsical common names. Sprays of it are ornamental 

 with straw flowers in winter bouquets, and it is chiefly for this pur- 

 pose that it is cultivated. It is a biennial, but it may be treated as 

 an annual if the seed is sown early.

LUPIN The foliage of all varieties of Lupin is in the form of many 

 lance-like rays about a common center. Pea-shaped blossoms are 

 compactly placed on upright tapering spikes. The plants prefer a 

 semi-shaded spot, and should be sown where they are to remain. 



Hartwegii [hA-2 ft.] Branching in habit, this class forms many 

 fine large flowered spikes and is the best annual tj'pe for cutting.

 perennial Feverfew, will bloom promptly the first season. The 

 plants are erect and bushy with finely cut dark green foliage. The 

 double button-like flowers are dainty white and grow in terminal 

 clusters; they are excellent for cutting. The plants are attractive in 

 the garden, too, and bloom all summer long.

 Stocks.
