TWENTIETH CENTURY FRUITS 15 
Golden Rods 
The Golden Rods, too, grow in every State and have received my 
most careful attention and, from an extensive collection which has been 
under observation and improvement for years, I have produced two 
varieties which are unusually desirable. These, like the asters, are 
perennial. Both may be readily increased each season by division. 
"Pale Gold" 
Unusually large, graceful clusters of pale gold or lemon yellow flowers 
in abundance. Height three and a half feet. 
"Golden Fluff" 
Deep yellow fluffy flowers like great clusters of ostrich plumes. Height 
three feet. 
Each, 25c; both, 40c; ten, $2. 
The "Square" Plant— (Silphium lanceolatum var.) 
A greatly improved variety of a native, hardy, easily grown, perennial 
growing four to six feet in height and very much resembling a sun- 
flower except that the stalks are sharply square instead of round. The 
flowers are yellow and about four inches across. Well grown stalks 
make light and unique square canes. 
Roots, each, 25c; three, 50c; ten, $1.
