PLANT DEPARTMENT 
Annual and Hardy Perennial Plants 
AGERATUM 
Useful in all summer bedding schemes, as well 
as for baskets and vases. In fact they are in- 
dispensable for these purposes on account of the 
serious lack of blue shades among bedding plants. 
BIiUE PERFECTION. Barge clusters, bright 
blue with purplish shading. 15c; $1.00 per doz. 
ASPARAGUS 
Brilliant, dark green foliage plants, unques- 
tionably the most used of any indoor trailing 
plants for bracketed pots, window-boxes and 
hanging baskets. 
PliUMOSTTS NANUS. The lace-like texture of 
its foliage outclasses Maiden Hair Fern for grace 
and daintiness; the long sprays being indispen- 
sable for floral decorations. Excellent alone or 
as center plant in jardinieres. Each, 25c. 
SPRENGERI. Mostly used for hanging bas- 
kets where its long, dense trails make a gleaming 
mass of green. Each, 25c. 
ANEMONE 
ANEMONE (Wind Flower). A most valuable 
class of hardy plants suitable for edging, mass- 
ing or single specimens. They grow rapidly 2 to 
3 feet and are profuse in bloom, gaining strength 
and beauty each year. The blooming period ex- 
tends from August till mid-November, the large 
open flowers furnishing abundant cut-flowers and

$1.50. 
AQUILEGIA (Columbine) 
The distinct, clear-cut foliage and delicate ar- 
rangement of colors In the flowers of Columbine 
make it one of the showiest and most desirable 
of the hardy garden plants; especially suitable 
for rockwork, at the base of foundation walls and 
under trees. Bloom in early spring. Each, 15c; 
do i., $1.50.

itions to older lists, now give a wide range of se- 
lection as to height, blooming character, season 
and color. Each, 20c; doz., $2.00. 
ANNUAL ASTERS 
CREGO'S GIANT COMET ASTERS. We con- 
sider this the finest and largest of all Comet

shell-pink (Mary Semple), light blue. Doz., 35c. 
FALL ASTERS (Michaelmas Daisies). Many 
people hold the Fall Asters in contempt, because 
some of them grow “wild” and are commonplace; 
thereby missing some rare color effects in their 
late perennial gardens.

for beds, vases, baskets, edging or rockwork, 
blooming profusely all summer; useful also for 
winter flowering. Very sweetly scented. Doz., 50c.
