WAH LENBERGIA pumilio —Being from seed 
collected in Dalmatia, the plants are 
somewhat variable as to size as well as 
color of both foliage and flowers. We 
have selected the most dwarf and silvery 
p’ants for propagation, the color of the 
flowers varying but very little; lavender- 
violet to deep lavender-violet. It makes 
a more or less silvery mound or mat, 
covered with cup-like flowers on 1 to 2 
inch stems from June to Aug. For scree 
or any light, limy soil, in full sun. Top 
dress with stone chips and limestone. 
75c and $1.00 each. 
WALLFLOWERS—Cheiranthus cherie, ac¬ 
cording to standardized plant names. We 
purchase seeds of the best named vari¬ 
eties from the most reliable seedsmen in 
both the States and Europe, but we can 
not guarantee plants to be 100% true to 
color or name. They average better than 
90% true. 
Best planted during the fall or very 
early in the spring, although they may 
be moved while in bloom locally. The 
dwarf varieties are also used for filling 
window boxes, as they are evergreen and 
early flowering, giving color from time 
they are planted in Sept, or Oct., until 
May or June, when they may be moved 
into border, still in flower and the boxes 
filled with Geraniums, etc. They love a 
warm soil, with a little water and full 
sun. Please advise if we may substitute 
if color or variety can not be supplied. 
Some colors and varieties sell faster 
than others; not always the same ones.

XEROPHYLLUM tenax — (Squaw Grass) 
Will grow in nearly any soil, but prefers 
a well-drained slope in full sun. We ad¬ 
vise spring planting. It is one of our

great clubbed plumes of creamy white 
flowers rising above the clump of tough, 
grass-like foliage. Our plants are nursery 
grown. 50c and 75c each. 
YUCCA filamentosa — Among hardy plants 
there is nothing more effective and strik¬ 
ing for isolated positions on the lawn or 
on dry banks where few other plants 
will thrive. Its broad sword-like ever¬ 
green foliage and immense branching 
spikes of drooping creamy-white flowers, 
rising to height of 6 ft. or more, render 
it a bold and handsome subject wherever 
placed. 35c, 50c and 75c each. 
*filamentosa variegata —A hardy variegat¬ 
ed form and a thrifty grower. The leaves 
have narrow stripes of green and white, 
like a ribbon grass, tinged red in winter. 
50c and 75c each. 
ZAUSCHNERIA *californica —An excellent 
plant for rock walls, or large boulders, 
where it receives full sun and the foli¬ 
age may hang over rock or ledge. Makes 
large flat masses of grey, downy foliage, 
smothered from Sept, to Nov. with long, 
tubular flowers of a brilliant scarlet. 
Very drought resistant, it thrives in any 
well-drained soil. 35c each. 
*latifolia — Of more upright habit, the 
flower stalks ascending from 12 to 18 
inches before bending over again. While 
foliage is not as attractive as that of Z. 
californica, it being a bright green, it is 
more floriferous. 35c each.
