Even the tall Double Hollyhocks are not particular 



about the kind oF soil they grow in so long as it is 



well drained. 



HOLLYHOCK Almost every garden or dooryard 

 has a place for stately Hollyhocks. A tall group 

 among shrubs or evergreens, a row lining a gar- 

 den wall or fence or with a white cottage as a 

 background, may easily produce an effect for an 

 artist to paint.

HUNNEMANNIA (Bush Eschscholtzia) [hA-18 in.] Members of the poppy family rarely 

 make good cut flowers, but this, the Santa Barbara poppy, is an exception. It is also 

 attractive in the border. Bushj' in habit, with silvery-green foliage, it bears long- 

 stemmed, cup-shaped flowers, often 3 inches across and pure lemon yellow in color.

IBERIS Perennial Candytuft) [hP-R-8 in.] Hardy Candytuft is a good plant for the rock 

 garden in late spring. It is of spreading habit and is covered with large flat clusters of 

 small lilac flowers shading white toward the centers of the clusters. It is of easy culture, 

 and, while the flower stalks and foliage die down in the winter, the roots lie dormant, 

 sending up a new growth early the following season. 



Gibraltarica K oz. 45c; pkt. 10c 



• ICE PLANT (Mesembryanthemum Crystallinumi [hA-6 in.] The foliage of this plant 



sparkles like ice crj^stals. The flowers are small and pinkish white, and their slender 

 petals look as though they might be made of flne glass. In Northern climates the seed 

 should be started indoors, and the j^oung plants set out only when the weather is warm. 

 Well adapted for use on drj' banks and in rock gardens H oz. 40c; pkt. 10c 



ICELAND POPPY (Poppy Nudicaule) [hP-R-18 in.] This hardy Poppy slightly resembles 

 the delicately formed annual Shirley. However, the plants are somewhat different in 

 habit and produce many shades of j'eUow and orange. Iceland Poppies are valuable in 

 a hardy border or in a permanent rock garden, and when in bud thej' are desirable for 

 cutting. 



Coonara Pink Hybrids Clear shades, pale pastels to deep rose M oz. 65c; pkt. 15c 



Sunbeam An improvement over the original Iceland strain. The plants will produce 

 flowers the first season from seed sown early, and the blossoms are unequalled for cut-

IPOMOEA [hA-C-12 ft.] The luxurious rapid growth of this class of climbers recommends 

 them for use as screens over porches and arbors. Their foliage is dense, of varying 

 shades of green, and the leaves of certain sorts are of great size. The flowers resemble 

 those of the Morning Glory, but are usually much larger, and in a broad range of deU- 

 cate colorings. To hasten the germination, soak the seed for several hours before 

 planting.
