PERENNIALS AND CALIFORNIA BULBS 17 
OENOTHERAS brachycarpa has a circle of leaves on the ground and very large 
yellow flowers on short stems. 
CE. Burbank's America is easily one of the most striking; it throws out flattened stems, 
from which arise every morning for months, stems 4 or 5 inches high, with simply im- 
mense, pure white flowers. It thrives in a sunny place in any good soil, and is one of 
the best new things that I have tried. 25 cts. each. 
CE. caespitosa forms colonies with underground runners; it makes a wonderfully fine 
sight after a year or so, when it has formed a large clump. It has fine white flowers, 
which soon turn pink. 
CE. Childsii is a form of the Mexican Primrose. It forms close colonies and produces 
clear pink flowers in great profusion. It does not fade in sunlight and continues for a 
long period. It is a most delightful plant, and is especially good for hot climates. 15 cts 
each, $1.50 per doz. 
CE. fruticosa is a fine perennial, making a bush-like growth from 1 to 3 feet high, and 
bearing, for a long while in summer, a profusion of large, bright lemon-colored flowers. 
The variety Youngii is lighter in foliage. Both fine. 25 cts. each. 
CE. Lamarckiana is that tall, strong, and much-branched sort with great yellow 
flowers. It does well under hard conditions and responds wonderfully to good culture. 
Fine for the hot interior. Fine flowering plants, 10 cts. each, $1 per doz. 
CE. missouriensis is a first-class plant of great beauty. Many leafy stems come from 
a woody base and produce flowers of the most delightful soft lemon color, for a long 
time. A single plant is a foot high by 1 X A feet across. 25 cts. each. 
Nearly all of the plants in this catalog are from cool regions, and are perfectly hardy 
both in Europe and the eastern and mid-western states. If by chance some few of the ten- 
der sorts are ordered for regions in which they would not succeed, I will notify the customer 
and place the amount of the order to his credit.
