W. W. WILMORE, DAHLIA SPECIALIST. 
Hardy Herbaceous Plants 
For Permanet Planting in Garden, Borders, Cemetery Plots, Etc. 
Strong Field- Grown Plants 
No flower garden is complete without a 
collection of these most valuable plants. 
With a little care they may be selected so 
as to give a continuous supply of flowers 
from early spring to autumn's frosts. They 
require far less care than the annuals or 
bedding plants, and may be used to good 
advantage to fill odd corners, along fences, 
and to screen unsightly objects. They are 
perfectly hardy, and yet for winter they 
should have a slight covering of leaves or 
other litter. Care should also be taken to 
prevent pools of water standing on them 
during winter. I will gladly make selections 
for those not familiar with hardy plants if 
they will inform me as to space to be filled. 
In this way I can send thirteen distinct va- 
rities, postpaid, for $1.00.

"It is due you to say that during the seven 
years 1 have been purchasing from you, I have 
found all of the stock received to be as repre- 
sented." E. E. WINTERS.

"All the Dahlias I ordered, bloomed, and I am 
more than delighted with them. I think Mrs. 
Peart alone is worth more than I paid for the 
lot." E. L. MAY. 
New Daisies 
ALASKA AND WESTRALI A 
These two Giant Shasta Daisies were in- 
troduced last year by the originator, Luther 
Burbank, who is also the originator of the 
original Shasta Daisy, sent out several years 
ago. Alaska and Australia, however, are as 
far superior to the old Shasta as that pop- 
ular variety was over all other Moonpenny 
daisies. Their flowers are much larger, and 
more chaste in form, stems much longer 
and plants more robust in growth. These 
daisies were the admiration of my garden 
last season and the demand for cut blooms 
could not be supplied. To grow these 
daisies properly, plant in a rich loose soil; 
give the plants lots of room and a liberal 
supply of water. Keep the blossom buds 
picked off until the plants are established. 
Having procured my stock direct from 
Mr. Burbank I know it to be pure. 
ALASKA. Flowers four to five inches 
across, semi-double, glistening white, small 
yellow disk. 25c each; 2.50 per doz. 
WESTRALIA. Plant of branching habit; 
flowers very large and single; color pure 
white. Price, 25c each; $2.50 per doz.
