 in any situation and almost without care. The flowers of deepest 

 indigo-blue are borne with the greatest profusion on long slender 

 stalks 3 to 4 feet high and blooming at a time when blue flowers 

 are not plentiful makes it a most noteworthy addition to any gar- 

 den planting. This variety is extremely hardy and winters over in 

 any part of the country without protection. 30 cts. each; $2.50 

 per doz.; $18.00 per 100.
