Chrysanthemums, continued 
ter. We keep the colors distinct rather than the varieties, viz.: 
White, Pink and Yellow. 
C. Leucanthemum hybrida, var, Shasta Daisy. Flowers are of 
the purest glistening white, of 
enormous size, about 4 inches in 
diameter, and are borne on long, 
strong, stiff, wiry stems, about 2 
feet in length. The Howers are 
produced in the greatest profusion, 
plants remaining in bloom for 
several months — in fact, all sum- 
mer if the matured flowers are 
removed. They are perfectly hardy 
perennials, and make a valuable 
addition to our list of hardy 
plants, on account of the abun- 
dance of flowers produced and 
their wonderful size and beauty. 
For cutting, the flowers are very 
effective. We also have an im- 
proved form of the Shasta Daisy. 
See illustration, page 15. 
CONVALLARIA majalis. Lilv- 
of-the-Vallkv. A lovely, hardy

vigorous, soon forming fine clumps.

COREOPSIS lanceoiata. A beautiful 
Dianthus barbatus (See page 5) 
hardy border plant that

sion the entire season. 
Beautiful masses and a 
favorite for cutting.
