NOTWITHSTANDING that this fine hardy garden plant has beenofieered but 
for a few years it is now generally known throughout the country and the 
demand for it has been very large each year. It, however, is so valuable 
for so many uses that we have worked up a large stock of it for this season. 
It is a herbaceous plant and grows each season under favorable conditions, if 
not pinched back, six to seven feet high, a well established plant sending up 
many strong stems. In July and August the plant becomes a mass of brilliant 
golden yellow flowers much resembling a fair chrysanthemum, and produced on 
graceful stems. As a garden plant for backgrounds, or for planting for a scr^n- 
like effect along walls or fences it is splendid and will grow well in partial shade. 
As a cut flower it is very fine, good generous bunches with long stems can be 
arranged most effectively. Some plant a good lot of it in the garden just to have 
it in plenty for cutting. The plants we offer are large enough to bloom freely 
this season, especially the larger ones.

A SPLENDID variety of the old fragrant Bee-Balm with all the old sort's 
rl vigor and freedom of bloom, the flowers, however, being much larger and 
' of a deeper color. For massing in good generous clumps nothing can pro- 
duce a more charming effect during August and September, the flowers being ot 
the deepest crimson and in such great freedom as to make a striking appearance. 
If the ground is well enriched plants set out this Spring will produce a profusion 
of bloom this Summer.
