Helleborus ^iger 
(The Christinas Rose) 
This interesting hardy plant can be grown in 
any sheltered position. It makes an excellent 
addition to the Rock Garden, as its blooms ap¬ 
pear in November and continue to bloom as long 
as the weather is open. Frost and snow ap¬ 
parently have little effect on its blooming, as 
whenever a thaw happens in the early Winter, 
their flowers appear untouched by ice and snow. 
The color is white, suffused with pink, and if 
sheltered in a glass coldframe they will turn 
almost pure white, on stems from 6 to 12 in. 
in length, flowers from 2 to 3 in. across. The 
leaves are large and leathery in substance. 
Ever since the government embargo on all 
plants, this most interesting plant has been 
extremely scarce and almost out of the market. 
Extra strong clumps $1.00 each; $10.00 doz., 
delivered free in September and October.
