PLANTS FOR SUB-ALPINE MOUNDS, ROCKWORK, AND FOR WINDOW GARDENS. 
One of the most interesting features in modern gardening is the development of a Sub-Alpine effect, which 
is produced by throwing up mounds, and planting them with an Alpine vegetation, giving to the mounds various 
heights and depressions, such as are to be found in natural landscapes, choosing, when possible, a situation which 
admits of a perspective, and planting so as to give a semi-wild appearance, in which should be represented every 
tint of Alpine fo liage and every variety of Alpine flower. These Alpine effects are enhanced by a liberal planting 
of spring flowering bulbs, such as Chionodoxa luciliae, Scilla sibirica and bifolia, Snowdrops, Crocus, dwarf 
Daffodils, Snowflakes, Fritillarias, Iris reticulata, Iris Persica, Sisyrinchium grandiflorum, etc., and thus made 
as attractive in spring as in summer.

A FEW SPECIALITIES 
TO WHICH MESSRS. BARR AND SUGDEN DESIRE TO INVITE SPECIAL ATTENTION. 
Anemone fulgens and var. Grsesa. Beautiful species, producing large dazzling vermilion scarlet 8 ‘ 
flowers with dark centres, on strong stalks, 9 to 12 inches in height. Planted at intervals, flowers 
may be had out of doors from early in Spring to July. Fulgens, 21 s. per 100 ; Fulgens Graeca, p. 100 30 o 
Anemone japonica alba, rosea, and rubra. Beautilul species, with trifoliate leaves, flowers i\ inches 
in diameter, white, rose, and bright purplish rose, with golden yellow centres, borne in great pro-

Brodlsea congests.. A fine, handsome, hardy bulbous plant which should have a place in every flower 
border. It is valuable as a cut flower for vases and table bouquets per 100 7 6 
Chionodoxa Luciliae ( The Glory of the Snow). The blossoms intense Nemophila blue, with snow-white 
centre ; established bulbs flower so abundant as literally to carpet the ground. It is a charming pot 
plant, and for Spring bedding and permanent edgings unsurpassed ; we recommend it as a good 
associate to the Snowdrop and Spring Snowflake. Mr. Maw, in describing the circumstances under 
which he found the Chionodoxa luciliae, says, " At the lower level it was out of flower, but near the 
summit of the mountain a mass was met with in full splendour, forming one of tihe most sumptuous 
displays of floral beauty I ever beheld ; a mass of blue and white resembling Ne.mophila insignis in 
colour, but more intense and brilliant.” The Chionodoxa luciliae was beautifully figured in The 
Garden , July 3rd, 1880, and in 1878 the Floral Committee of the Royal Horticulture l Society awarded 
to us a First Class Certificate for this plant 
per 100 21 s., 30 s., 40 s., and 50J. ; per dozen, 3*. 6 d. r as. 6 d., 5 s. 6d. & 7 6 
Colchicum speciosum Rubrum. The largest, richest coloured and most beautiful of this family, flowering 
in profusion during the latter part of September and early in October; valuable for clurups and masses 
in borders or rockwork per dozen, i8j., each is. 6d. & 2 6 
HyacinthU8 candicans, a distinct magnificent summer flowering hardy bulb, totally distinct iu appearance 
from the spring flowering Hyacinth, leaves 2 to 3 feet long, the upper portions recurved,* the flower 
stems from strong bulbs attain the height of 3 to 4 feet, and bear from 20 to 25 large pendulous funnel- 
shaped, pure white flowers; a desirable pot plant, and very effective in masses in beds or mixed 
borders ....... per dozen, 7s. 6d., 6 d. and 15 0
