HELIANTHEMUM 
Rock or Sun Rose 
In our large acreage of hardy plants, 
we believe the Helianthemum when in 
flower is one of the most beautiful. We 
grow these on an extensive scale. They 
are rich in their various colors, either in 
borders or rock gardens and attract the 
fullest attention of the visitor. Whether 
single or double variety, the shadings are 
very pleasing. It is hard to fully de¬ 
scribe a mass planting. We recommend 
you make a purchase of an assortment 
of Helianthemum and regardless of 
where you plant them, you will take a 
great deal of pleasure in their beauty.

FRITZ BAHR SAYS: 
There is nothing to compare 
with a wonderful showing of 
perennials. Throughout the 
entire summer you can have 
growing such plants as Del¬ 
phiniums, Hardy Phlox, Peo¬ 
nies, Iris and, thousands of other 
varieties of plants. These come 
into bloom from early spring 
until late fall. With little care, 
plantings of this sort will last 
many years. This, in itself, is 
of great interest to the planter 
of flowers.
