New and Exceptional Perennials 
Chrysanthemum hybridum, Burbank’s Fringed (Fringed Shasta 
Daisy) —12-15". Offered last year. This is one of the late Luther Burbank’s 
improvements on his own creation, the Shasta Daisy. The flowers are many 
petaled and beautifully fringed large white daisies, ideal for cutting. This 
variety does not breed true from seed, therefore we are offering only cutting- 
grown plants which we guarantee to bloom absolutely true to type. 50c each. 
Chrysanthemum mawii—6-8". A dainty little newcomer to the rock gardens 
offering a pleasing combination of grey lacy foliage surmounted by numerous 
small single stemmed pink daisies during the summer. A gem for the rock 
garden. 35c each. 
Coreopsis, Mayfield Giant —3J4'. A golden yellow, larger flowered, stronger 
growing, new Coreopsis. This is one of the finest perennials for cut flowers. 
25c each. 
Delphinium Hybrids (Hardy Larkspur) —5-6'. There were blooming Del¬ 
phinium in our fields last summer raised from seeds of four different growers 
from three countries (two from the United States, one from England and one 
from Germany). Those received from the German seed house of Ernest 
Benary, as usual, proved themselves the finest of all. We therefore offer the 
following strains of Benary’s hybrid Delphiniums as being the choicest of 
the Delphinium hybrids we grow. 
Delphinium, Benary’s Hollyhock Strain —Enormous single and double 
blossoms on long spikes. We have noted that this strain is especially out¬ 
standing in the predominance of fine, clear blue shades, both light and dark. 
25c each. 
Delphinium, Benary’s New Double Giant Flowered Hybrids —A ma¬ 
jority of this strain will come double. A very fine mixture of light and dark 
blues, lavenders, purples and pinks and combinations of the same with 
occasionally a white or cream. This is a mixture and must be sold as such. 
25c each. 
Dianthus barbatus, Purple Beauty (Sweet William) —15". As offered last 
year. In this German introduction we have a color hitherto unknown in Sweet 
William, a deep bright purple. This intense coloring should make the variety 
very effective, both as a bedding plant and for cutting purposes. 35c each. 
Dianthus caryophyllus (Hardy Garden Carnation) —15". These double Vienna and 
Grenadin strains produce excellent cut carnation blooms for the house and furnish fine 
neat, blue-leaved, well-flowered plants for the garden. We are offering three new ones this 
year. The older varieties will be found in the general perennial list. New varieties 35c each. 
King of the Blacks —Fine, double, dark velvety red shades. 
Brilliant Violet —A new shade in carnations. 
White Gold —This is the first golden yellow hardy carnation we have ever offered. A 
splendid novelty. 
Dianthus plumarius. Highland Queen (Clove Pink) —12". A distinct departure from 
the usual pink or white varieties, this new English Clove Pink gives us a large, single 
flowered, bright crimson flower with spicy fragrance and a very long blooming period. It 
will fit in both rock garden and border. 35c each. 
Euphorbia polychroma (Spurge) —12". One of the best yellow rock garden, or low 
border plants. Very formal and symmetrical in habit. In May and June it is covered 
with brilliant yellow flowers. Will flower best on poor soil in the sun. 25c each. 
Geum Fire Opal—24". As offered last year. We believe Geum Fire Opal one of the finest, 
most free flowering and showy perennials that has been presented to the public for some 
time. The blossom is difficult to describe, an orange-scarlet with an overlaid opal sheen. 
The flowers are much larger than those of the ordinary Geum and are produced in abund¬ 
ance in July. This variety is rarely on the market as it cannot be produced from seed and 
propagation by division and cuttings is extremely slow. 50c each. 
Geum, Orange Queen—20". A fine, new, bright orange, double Geum. Excellent as a cut 
flower. 35c each. 
Heuchera brizoides (Coral Bells) —18". An early flowering Heuchera of fine robust growth 
producing an abundance of pink bells in May. The ordinary garden Heuchera sanguinea 
blooms from June to September. 25c each. 
Heuchera Hybrid, Edge Hall —18". Blooming season, June and July. Edge Hall is one 
of the finest of the large flowered pink Heucheras. Its spikes of pink lily-of-the-valley-like 
bells rising from a neat tuft of basal leaves make it a distinctively better perennial for any 
garden. As Edge Hall will not breed true from seed, we propagate it by cuttings and 
guarantee our plants to come absolutely true to color. 50c each. 
Heuchera sanguinea, Shirley-—18". We find this free flowering, coral scarlet variety ex¬ 
ceedingly bright and attractive. Its vivid little bells, like drops of fire, certainly add color 
to the rock garden or border. 35c each. Heuchera, Shirley and Edge Hall
