This mixture is the surplus accumulated through many years 
from the tulip collection of a large private garden. It is com¬ 
posed of Breeder, Darwin, and Cottage tulips in fine named 
varieties. While we recommend them for cutting, a bed of 
these gives the effect of a gorgeous tapestry with a long period 
of interest and beauty.

The four species of Iris listed have been especially happy here. 
We offer strong plants. Iris Gmtftfca is a tiny crested Iris from^ 
Japan, perfectly hardy. Its lilac ffowers are cfested'vmfir'oYange^ r* 
It prefers semi-shade. Iris Cristata also like semi-shade, and' T*' 
plenty of leaf mold. It quickly forms large mats and when 
established is covered with a profusion of delicately-scented, ame¬ 
thyst blue flowers, crested with gold. Iris Reticulata early in 
April, sometimes in mid-March, makes its dramatic entry into the 
rock garden. The brilliant purple flowers are startling in their 
richness and intensity. Our American-grown bulbs seem to be 
entirely free from the disease which made the imported ones a 
short-lived luxury. Iris Pumila Coerulea, a charming little Iris, 
is a pure sky blue, and should be in every spring garden. Iris 
Tectorum is a beautiful lavender-crested Iris blooming in June. 
Iris Tectorum Alba is its white form and is a rare and exquisite 
flower. Our Heuchera Rosamunde is an unusually fine type of 
this variety. It is profuse and lasting in bloom, beautiful in 
color, a warm, rosy pink. Once established, it throws stalks two 
and a half feet high, and blooms continually from late May 
through the greater part of the summer. 
Digitalis Lutea is a specially fine form. It is permanent and 
perfectly hardy. The foliage is good, and its soft yellow flowers 
are almost as large as those of the biennial forms. Helleborus 
Niger (Christmas Rose) likes shade and a deeply prepared soil 
with plenty of woods earth and very well-rotted cow manure. 
It is perfectly hardy, absolutely permanent. The foliage is 
handsome all the year round and from November to March the 
lovely waxen-white flowers, flushing sometimes to a soft pink, 
link the bloom of November with the first bloom of Spring. 
We are often asked for plants blooming effectively at the same 
time as Narcissi. The following have been found most satisfac¬ 
tory: For the back of the border. Crown Imperial (Fritillaria 
Imperialis) ; for the middle border, Doronicum Excelsum, 
with its brilliant yellow daisy-like flowers, about eighteen inches 
high. Iris Coerulea, a very dwarf, sky blue pumila. Tulipa 
Praestans and Sylvestris, violas, pansies—fall planted, Anchusa
