white flowers. Plant either fall or spring, and

TRITOMA 
PFITZKRI. Red Hot Poker plant. Fine spikes 
of orange-scarlet flowers. Much admired. 
Blooms from August to October. Strong plants 
50 cents each, 3 for S1.25. 
I have an early variety that blooms from the 
first of July to October. Strong plants 40 cents 
each, 3 for $1.00. 
These are not hardy here, and they should be 
dug in late October, tops removed, and store them 
in dry sand in a cool cellar. They are much 
easier to keep in good condition than Dahlias. 
YUCCA 
These were grown from seed procured in Mon- 
tana, and are as bright and green in the spring 
as in the fall. The Filamentosa bleaches some 
during the winter. 
The plants I have now are all heavy planti*, 
and as they have stiff roots three feet in length, 
and as it is necessarv to dig the wliole root, they 
camiot be sent by mail. $1.00, $1.25 and $1.50 
each. 
gti:neral remarks 
The cro\NTi of a plant is whei'e the new buds 
form on the plant and in September they are fully 
grown so they wiW start new growth the following 
spring on the first approach of warm weather. 
It is impoi-tant that peonies, phlox and platy- 
codon should be planted at the right depth, and 
instructions should be followed. 
During the winter I have most varieties of my 
new iris, and other plants, heeled in sand in my 
storage cellar, and can ship to warmer sections 
of the U. S. as early as desired. 
I am located one and one-half miles north of 
Kasson, and 17 miles west of ROCHESTER, 
Minn., the BIGGEST LITTLE CITY in the world. 
I am also located on the Babcock Highway No. 
57 that ran;^ from Kasson to Mantorville.
