Pfitzeri. The free and continuous blooming 
qualities of this variety have made it 
one of the great bedding plants. Hardy if 
given protection, but the most satisfactory 
method of wintering is to bury the roots in 
sand in a cool cellar. In bloom from August 
to October, with spikes 3 to 4 feet high and 
heads of bloom of a rich orange-scarlet pro¬ 
ducing a grand effect either planted singly 
in border or in masses. 35c ea.; $3.00 doz.

ange Globe. Desirable free-flowering plants, 
producing giant bright yellow, buttercup¬

plant. Deep violet flowers; silvery-grey foli¬

tensively for carpeting the ground under 
shrubs or trees or on graves, where it is 
too shady for grass or other plants to 
thrive. Strong, nursery-grown clumps. 
★ VIOLA CORNUTA (Tufted Pansies). This is 
the best edging plant for the hardy border 
or garden; when properly cared for, these 
plants remain in full bloom from May until 
October. The great secret of their continu¬ 
ous bloom, though, is the fact that they 
must -be sheared several times during the 
season, so that the flowers do not go to 
seed. 
Jersey Gem (New). Possesses the dwarf 
habit and continuity of blooming of the true 
horned Viola (V. cornuta), and the vigorous, 
bushy growth and roundish foliage of the 
finest English bedding varieties. Color is 
pure, rich violet, and slightly perfumed. 20c 
each; $2.00 per dozen. 
VIOLA ODORATA (Sweet Violet). The variety 
listed below is suited for forcing under 
glass; and perfectly hardy, and is covered 
with flowers in early Spring and wonder¬ 
fully sweet scented. 15c each; $1.50 per doz. 
Prince of Wales. Rich, deep purple. 
★YUCCA (Adam’s Needle). 
Filamentosa. Among hardy plants there is 
nothing more effective and striking for iso¬ 
lated positions on the lawn or on dry banks 
where few other plants thrive. It is also 
indispensable for the rockery. Its broad, 
sword-like, evergreen foliage and immense 
branching spikes of drooping, creamy white 
flowers, rising to a height of 6 feet, render 
it a bold and handsome subject wherever 
placed. Should be planted in Spring. 50c 
each; $5.00 dozen.

for rockeries.
