HOLMSKIOLDTIA Sanguinea. (Para¬ 
sol Plant) 
(India). Can be grown either as a shrub or 
a climber. Literally covered with racemes of 
glowing brick-red bracts. One of the most 
beautiful and showy shrubs introduced in re¬ 
cent years. This plant in full bloom is an or¬ 
nament to any garden. Prefers a warm sun¬ 
ny situation with plenty of water; under this 
kind of treatment it is a perpetual bloomer. 
Highly recommended. Gallon containers, $.75; 
large specimens, $2.50. 
INGA Pulcherrima. (Mexican 
Flame Bush) 
(Mexico). Very feathery pinnate foliage, makes 
in time a large spreading evergreen shrub, in 
spring and summer and often in winter a sheet 
of vivid scarlet fluffy heads of flowers shaped 
like a pom-pom. An unusually beautiful shrub. 
Rare. Gallon containers, $1.00; large specimens, 
$ 2 . 00 . 
IOCHROMA Coccinea 
(South America). Strong growing evergreen 
shrub, large dark green leaves, drooping clusters 
of light scarlet tubular flowers. Very showy 
plant, the best of this family. $.50. 
LASIANDRA Laxa. (Syn. Pleroma 
scandens). (Weeping Princess Flower) 
(Brazil). Similar to the old Pleroma splen- 
dens with the exception that the flowers are 
smaller and deeper blue with yellow stamens. 
The plant has a loose, somewhat scandent 
habit, does not become leggy and is very free 
blooming. We believe it is superior for gen¬ 
eral garden use to the old Pleroma. We rec¬ 
ommend it very highly. Gallon containers, 
$1.00; large specimens, $2.50 up. 
LEPTOSPERMUM Scoparium Grandiflora. 
(Var. roseum). (Tea Tree) 
(Australia and New Zealand). Large growing 
evergreen shrub, graceful arching branches, rosy 
pink single flowers considerably larger than the 
flowers of other Leptospermums. Scarce. A 
splendid subject for a specimen or a hedge. 
Strongly recommended. Gallon containers, $.75; 
large specimens, $2.00. 
LEUCOPHYLLUM Texanum 
(Texas and Mexico). Evergreen shrub growing 
to a height of about seven feet, pretty small sil¬ 
very-gray foliage, trumpet-shaped lavender-col¬ 
ored flowers in summer. Likes a fairly dry sun¬ 
ny situation. A particularly good thing for a 
desert garden. Stands quite low temperatures 
$.60. 
LIBONIA Floribunda

foliage covered in winter with masses of tubular 
yellow and scarlet flowers. Very pretty and free
