I HARDX PERENNIAL PIANT S 1, 



7PHHWM 



Dreer's De Luxe Delphiniums 



Hardy Chrysanthemums 



(Shasta Daisy, etc.) 



Arcticum (The Arctic Daisy). Among fall-flowering perennials 

 this is a perfect gem. It forms an attractive rosette-like clump 

 of pretty dark green foliage, and in September multitudes of 

 flower stems appear, terminated by pure white flowers from 2 to 2\ inches 

 in diameter. These develop during the last week in September, and con- 

 tinue in good condition throughout October and frequently into November. 



Coreanum ( Korean Daisy). A recent introduction from Korea with large 

 white flowers with golden centres, frequently becoming tinted pink in 

 frosty weather. An attractive late-flowering very hardy perennial. 



Shasta Daisy "Alaska." A decided improvement on the original; with 

 blooms 4J to 5 inches across, of pure glistening white. Very free-flowering 

 and in bloom all summer and fall. 



25 cts. each; $2.50 per doz.; $15.00 per 100. 



Shrubby Clematis 



Davidiana. A most desirable variety, with fresh, bright green foliage and 

 tubular bell-shaped flowers of deep lavender blue during August and Sep- 

 tember; deliciously fragrant. 2 ft. 35 cts. each; $3.50 per doz. 



Recta. Grows 2 to 3 feet high, and produces fragrant white flowers in large 

 clusters during June and July. 35 cts. each; $3.50 per doz. 



Convallaria (LUy of the vaiiey) 



Majalis. This is often starved and relegated to some poor, out-of-the 

 way corner; but this popular and fragrant subject, like most other plants, 

 repays for being well treated, and if the bed is given a liberal top-dressing 

 of well-decayed manure in fall or early spring, it will show the effect by 

 increased size, number and vigor of the flowers. We offer strong clumps, 

 especially suited for outdoor planting. 50 cts. each; $5.00 per doz.; $40.00 

 per 100. 



Coreopsis 



Lanceolata grandiflora. One of the most popular hardy plants. The 

 flowers are a rich golden -yellow, of graceful form and invaluable for cutting; 

 blooms during the entire summer and autumn. 2 ft. 



Rosea. Finely divided, dark green foliage, bearing in August and September 

 numerous small pink flowers; useful in border or rockery; 1 foot. 

 25 cts. each; $2.50 per doz.; $15.00 per 100. 



Delphinium (Hardy Larkspur) 



These are deservedly one of the most popular subject in the 

 hardy border; of easiest culture; perfectly hardy. They will 

 establish themselves in almost any, garden soil, but respond 

 quickly to liberal treatment. 



Belladonna Improved. The freest and most continuous 

 blooming of all, never being out of flower from the end of June 

 until cut down by hard frost. The clear turquoise blue of its 

 flowers is not equaled in delicacy and beauty by any other 

 flower. 



Bellamosum. This is a dark blue form of the popular light blue 

 Belladonna, with which it is identical in habit of growth, freedom 

 of bloom and other good qualities, but with intensely rich, deep 

 blue flowers. 



Chinense . A very pretty dwarf species, with fine feathery foliage 

 and intense gentian-blue flowers in open panicles. 



— Album. A pure white form of the above. 



Dreer's De Luxe Hybrids. Unquestionably the finest strain 

 of mixed Hybrids ever offered. The plants are of strong, vigor- 

 ous habit, with large flowers. 



25cts. each; $2.50 per doz.; $15.00 per 100. One each of the 

 5 varieties for $1.10. 



Dianthus (Pinks) 



Arenarius [Sand Pink). Deeply cut white flowers on stems 6 to 

 12 inches high during June and July. A good plant for the 

 rock garden. 



Caesius (Cheddar Pink). Forms compact cushions of blue gray 



foliage and sweetly scented, rose-pink flowers in May and June; 



fine for the rock garden. 

 Deltoides (Maiden Pink). A charming creeping variety, with 



medium-sized pink flowers in June and July; especially suited 



for the rock garden. 



— Alba. A pretty white flowered form. 



Latifolius atrococcineus PI. PI. (Ever-blooming Hybrid 

 Sweet William). A beautiful summer bedding variety, producing 

 masses of brilliant fiery crimson double flowers throughout the 

 entire season; 8 to 10 inches high. 

 NeglectUS (Glacier Pink). One of the prettiest of the Alpine 

 Pinks, producing deep rose colored flowers in June. 3 to 4 

 inches. 50 cts. each.

 per 100.
