OF HARDY PERENNIALS, SHRURS AND VINES 
5 
*Auricula —Alpine Primrose 
This favorite spring flower was at one time almost 
universally cultivated, but has of late years fallen into 
much neglect; it is now, however, happily regaining 
enthusiastic admirers. The Alpine varieties are very 
hardy and make most beautiful edging or rock garden 
subjects.

yellow or white, body color various shades from 
light blue to deepest purple. 3 inches. 4-5. Price, 
23c each; $2.50 per dozen. 
*Baptisia— False Indigo 
Baptisias, although rather shy bloomers, grow very 
freely and are very good for the border, where they 
prefer free exposure to the sun. 
Australis. Deep blue, pea-shaped flowers in racemes; 
good foliage. 4 to 5 feet. 6. 
*Bellis— English Daisy 
Very popular and charming edging perennials, with 
cheerful button-shaped flowers in early spring.

but the fully grown inflorescence has a very distinct 
and pleasing appearance. 5 to 8 feet. 5-8. 
*Boltonia— False Chamomile 
False Starwort 
This very desirable perennial furnishes the garden 
or border with a great sea of bloom during the last of 
the summer and the fall. Thrives in any ordinary soil.

*Calimeris —Starwort 
Asian herbs often united with the Asters, but horti- 
culturally distinct, of low growth, and suited to the 
border in front of strong plants. 
Incisa. Flowers large, purple-rayed to pale lavender, 
and yellow centered. 18 inches to 2 feet. 7-8. 
*Callirhoe —Poppy Mallow 
Handsome trailing rock or border plants, bearing a 
profusion of cup-shaped blossoms all Summer, pre¬ 
ferring a dry, sunny position.

with white centers and very loosely cut foliage.

Caltha —Marsh Marigold; King Cup 
Hardy perennials of easy culture on the margin 
of a piece of water, or in a marshy bog, or in the ordinary 
border, where their blossoms look very brilliant. The 
flowers last a long time in water, and so are valuable 
for cutting. 
Palustris. Large, golden single flowers. 1 foot. 3-4. 
Campanula —Bell Flower 
A most important class of hardy plants for the 
perennial border or garden. They are of very easy 
culture, growing either in sunny or shady positions; 
the taller forms for flower borders or shrubberies, and 
dwarf forms charming as edging or rock plants.

flowers porcelain-blue, held erect on wiry stems. 
Unsurpassed as an edging for hardy garden or rock¬ 
ery. 9 inches. 6-8.
